The magic bullet is the Turbo. Turbo helps push ridiculous amounts of pressure (psi) via compression into the motor (increasing compression ratio) to create a nice big bang to spin it really fast. But like anything that burns brighter, the wick shortens faster. So these motors won't stand more then few hours of operation vs a consumer car that is made to withstand few years. Look at rotor engines. Those were great small 1.3L motors with huge power outputs. Obviously not as reliable as piston motors. However I always wonder why humanity complicated motors and created so many moving pieces when all we had to do is build an electric motor from the start.. a magnet wrapped around a coil under current. Less moving pieces, less things that can go wrong and longer life span. Nethertheless one cannot beat the jet like sound of F1 piston engine under full power smashing down the straight!
