      I don't get why the dodge v10's are so low. they were the first to mass produce the gas powered v10 and they solved issues with it (balancing issues). honestly, the first v10 they made should at least be A tier because it was the first to do it. not to mention, several of them made more power or just as much power as S tier.

Taurus Racing (with help from Caterpillar of all companies) on the other hand did champion this engine twice at LeMans (and a few other showings in endurance races across 2005 and 2006), but with little success both times (one being down to engine problems, the other being down to the manual transmission fitted to it failing after 35 laps of running due to being unable to handle the amount of torque the engine had been tuned up to).

    The 5.2 FSI found in the Audi S6/S8 is notoriously hard and expensive to maintain as mileage increases. The most common failure point is the intake manifold, where plastic flaps that close at low rpm for more torque fail. Intake manifold is $5k just in parts, let alone labor. There’s a reason the S85 and 5.2 FSI cars are so inexpensive.

    I’d like to add that the engines UGR pushes to 3,500 are fully built billet block designs where they basically have nothing left over from the original engine. On stock internals they can push close to 1,500 which in and of itself is incredibly impressive but they blow up anything past 1800 wheel and are not very reliable. With fully upgraded Internals you can push 2,100-2,300 but anything past that is ticking time bomb even fully built. Those 3k+ motors are billet blocks and have absolutely zero stock components on them.

    I think the S85 is rather undervalued. The main reason is the engines break in the hands of people that can't maintain and drive them properly. And by driving i mean wait until the oil is warm to keep the bearings sufficiently lubed.

    Dont know if its been mentioned. The S85 didnt have defective rod bearings. They set the bearing clearances for a race engine which was too tight and not made for street longevity. Run the wrong oil or dont warm up the oil properly at tight clearances and you have a problem.

    The gen 5 Viper 8.4L V10 is SS++ tier. It propelled the Viper to a factory Nurburgring record and to 6 second passes at the drag strip. As far as I'm aware few engines have ever done both these things in the same car. It may be one of the top 10 greatest engines of all time. It's the LS of V10 blocks.

    All the Viper engines are extremely stout and are all easily capable of 2,500hp minimum. He forgot to mention Nyth Moto has two vipers that make 3,500hp and have never had and engine failure. Extremely reliable and durable. The Viper also won 3 Lemans championships in succession and would've been four if chrysler didn't pull out for a year. Not to mention every year they won, all podium finishes were Vipers.

    Something i wanted to point out. The RS6 5.0 TFSI is a variant of the S6 5.2, so is the R8 5.2. The Gallardo 5.0 is an entirely different engine. The S6/S8 5.2 was originally made in 06 with 450hp (de-tuned to 435 in the S6) and a 7000rpm redline. It was a wet sump system with a crank-pin offset for an even firing, it also had a dual stage intake manifold for high rpm horsepower and low end torque since its in luxury sedans. The RS6 and R8 are actually very similar. Both are variants of the S6 5.2 that make more power in different ways.
    Both the RS6 5.0 and R8 5.2 have a single pin crank to support the added power, as well as stronger con rods and different cams to support the now odd-firing engine. They both did away with the dual stage intake and went for less restrictive alternatives since the RS6 has turbos for the torque and the R8 really doesn’t care about low end torque. Similarities end about there.
    The RS6 was downsized to 5.0 because compression went from 12.5:1 to 10.5:1 since it was now twin turbocharged. It kept the wet sump system and rpm was actually lowered to about 6500 from the S6’s 7000 since it uses the turbos to make power.
    The R8’s displacement and compression are identical to the S6. It had a few changes for high rpm like the single pin crank, con-rods, etc like the RS6. However, it converted to a dry sump oil system and dual fuel injection (port and direct). The redline was increased to 8000-9000 depending on model and year, as this variant was used in the face lifted Gallardo, R8, and Huracan.

    For me the S85 has to be at least on tier A. Yes you have to maintain it, but the engine is very capable.
    The 5.2 FSI in the S6/S8 is in my opinion very bad, it wont perform and the consumption is very high. I really do not understand why Audi has not put the 5.0 TFSI in it, in case of the S8.
    Back to the rating, i would put the S85 into A or maybe S and the 5.2 FSI(S6/S8) into C.

  • @m.m_11
    @m.m_11 2 місяці тому

    Overall, this is a pretty good list, but I think the S85 deserves to be in the A tier because of how unique it is compared to the other engines. It feels and sounds quite different from the other V10’s. It’s definitely not the most reliable one, but a lot of the issues these engines are “known” for are easily preventable with maintenance and a driver mod. And for the enthusiasts out there, the S85 was also available with a 6-speed manual transmission. nevertheless great list, keep up the good work.

The 2nd generation Viper V10 fixing the reliability issues and increased power helping it to win at 24 hours at Daytona and 3 victories on Nurburgring deserves at least A tier if not S (remember to judge an engine compared to its era). The details listed for the fifth generation should bump it up to S tier.
    As great as the LFA engine is I'm not seeing where the car had outstanding success and given it's short run. I think it is more an A tier.
