Tho the twin air is quite a revvy and fun little engine and economical.
Wonder when the multiair will drop in price, have heard of someone fitting a multiair to a fiat x1/9, the 190bhp one. A 2.0 masserati bi turbo makes only 10bhp more and consumes far more fuel, heavier and larger. The multiair engine can be bought for a similar cost of buying a the biturbo engine and rebuilding/modifying.

I wasn't aware of the multiair in anything other than the sub 1l capacity.
Reading up on the one you are referring to I found out it's known as the Tigershark and is found in a bunch of stuff more commonly found on this side of the Atlantic. It's funny, about 3 years ago I actually looked at a Dodge Dart when we were car shopping and it would have had this engine in. -
Theres also a 2.0 biturbo engine making 304 HP. at the time i think it was the most HP per volume to date in a production car

Absolutely. Who knows, by then we might even be able to meet for a pint in a pub!
@lynx - I've only experienced the twin air engine in a fiat 500 but it's not really performance based. Although it does remind me that 500 Abarths are probably getting down there in price now...
