Apologies if this has been done to death but I couldn't find it
The RRS engine develops 292bhp vs the 254/255 of the D4. Peak torque is the same at the same revs. What are the engine differences and how easy/expensive is is to upgrade the D4 SDV6 to the same power?

I do not know much about the new engines but it coukd be just marketing
take ls1 camaro anf corvette for example
corvette cost nearly twice as much needed to show a premium performance so quoted 345hp and camaro 305when a few magazines tested them they found no difference other than normal variation you expect between production cars with some camaros making more power than sone of the corvettes Club original turbo
161k and counting
general AT's, oval timer, blanked egr's, silicone intercooler hose's

It was touched on recently here.

Thanks, but that thread didn't answer the question definitively. Does anyone know chapter and verse about the differences?[/quote]
