I was looking at other 5 cylinder engines and found this video of an amazing sounding Honda race bike from the sixties. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MRiPJBFEKA Does anyone know of any other impressive 5 cylinder engines?

I recall going in a police T5 for work and even with a boot full of traffic cones it went like hell. Last edited by Gripped; 29/08/2015 00:46.

johnnybravoturbo Unregistered J	The Volvo T5 and D5 engines are by far the most reliable units ever in mass production. Any competent mechanic in sure would agree. Great on fuel,bombproof units if left standard and very powerful. There's an 450 bhp estate 850 near me and its feared by many as the heartbreaker. 2.3 240bhp (pre fly by wire) was a very capable unit when tuned,with tuners looking out for the older t5 as opposed to the later 2.5 blocks. I've happily owned many volvos down the years,Pre 2006 before the Ford and Peugeot rubbish plagued them. However they don't sound like the fiat coupe unit due to the equal length manifolds.
