    How IndyCar Engines Create 700 HP - Sponsored By Honda
    Subscribe for new videos every Wednesday! - goo.gl/VZstk7
    Honda makes a 2.2L twin-turbo V6 that produces over 700 horsepower. How do they do it? It’s not just boost, this engine revs to an insane 12,000 RPM! A little higher than the Civic Type R’s 7,000 RPM redline, but you might be surprised by some of the commonalities between these engines. Similar displacement, similar boost, but wildly different purposes. The 2.2L keeps Honda powered cars competitive in the world of IndyCar, while the Type R’s 2.0L needs to be able to maintain the longevity required of a road-car engine. Check out the video for a breakdown of these two incredible engines.
    Not only did I learn about Honda's 2.2L engine while at the Belle Isle Grand Prix in Detroit, thanks to a discussion with a Honda Performance Development engineer, but I also had the incredible opportunity to ride in the Honda IndyCar two-seater! Conor Daly drove me around just before the opening lap of the race. Quite a special experience, big thanks to Honda for making it happen!

    *IMPORTANT CORRECTION:* In this video I state the boost pressures are 1300-1650 mbar *above atmospheric,* as is indicated on IndyCar's website (bit.ly/2XvviEU). This information, and the website, are not correct. Two IndyCar engineers have since notified me the boost pressures are absolute, meaning the gauge pressure for these engines above atmospheric is about 300-650 mbar, or about 4-9.5 psi. This is *significantly* less boost than discussed in the video. The math makes sense as well with the update. With pressure ranging from 1300 to 1650 mbar, and power ranging from 550 to 700 HP, we can do some quick ratios to see if it adds up. 1650/1300 = 1.27. 700/550 = 1.27. The power gain is thus proportional to the gain in pressure. E85 plays a larger role in power generation than the video indicates, and makes up for the gap that the "reduced" boost makes. Apologies for providing incorrect information, and thank you to the engineers who reached out with corrections and supporting materials! Mistakes happen; I will always do my best to provide corrections if necessary! Hopefully IndyCar will correct their website as well to reduce future confusion.

      My suggestion, remake the video where this gets corrected/discussed otherwise we get false data implanted into our brain. That's why this sort of vid is good, we have a stab at how we see things, "experts" pop up and offer valuable info, we all gain. Good job. These question have wizzed though my mind, I'm a curious engineer. I'd like to know the detail of F1 engines compared to a powerful commercial engine. I know octane and revs are the main ones. One comment by an expert was, tolerance are greater (and well defined) on a sports engine, longlevity is not the criteria.

    It is amazing that the Honda street 4-banger is so close to the race engine, which I think we can assume, pushes all the limits. Piston speed, boost (ok artificially limited here), apparently BMEP & PCP, and adjusted volumetric power density. They really did it all with rpm and a little higher efficiency. Honda Street engine is amazing to so close to several limits and have so much durability.

      You missed he entire bore stroke... that’s the whole difference. The fuel is fairly minimal, putting e-85 into the street car wouldn’t give you much. You could also run the street car 12k rpm, but the torque at that rpm would fall off a cliff on the Dino run, resulting in probably like 50 HP because the piston speed would be approaching flame propagation speed (which means the force on the piston would be near 0, which means almost no work is done).

      Wankel rotaries are the amount the highest reliable in a racing scenario for combustion engines (1000 HP per liter). Reliable as in comparatively since those are still using OEM engine housing and probably last more than 2500 miles when only doing 350HP per liter (since no boost on gasoline they are rated 238 for a 1.3L at the factory, although it’s really more like 180-190 because marketing...)

    Also a power difference factor is emissions. The 2.0L is rated with catalytic convertors. E85 alone would explain the power gap you ended up with in this video, so you have proved 700hp is definitely conservative. Probably as high as 800hp.

    Important correction, the cylinder head flow rate has a HUGE influence on power output. E85 is approximately 105 octane, however doesn't account for the majority of the horse power difference. I would speculate that the cylinder heads on the Indycar engine flow FAR more than the stock type R engine, which contributes to the significant difference in hp, while having similar displacement and boost levels.
