M156 6.2L V8 is the HIGHEST Output NA Production V8 Ever

The m159 in the SLS Black Series makes more power (622HP) then the 458 Speciale and is currently the most powerful N/A v8 ever produced. Will probably stay this way with all cars including the 458's successor the 488 GTB going to turbos.
The speciale is actually #3 on the list because the N/A V8 in the 918 Spyder produces 608HP vs the 597HP in the 458 speciale

Given the 4 seat criterion, there is no other N/A V8 that produces more power (to date) than in the C63 BS, and likely never will be.

Using the 4 seat criterion, the M156 in E63/S63 surpasses the C63BS by a little more ponies. The M156 in the C63BS supposedly has the gain due to improved internals but somehow the regular M156 in the E63/S63 have 8 more hp.

Speciale had more
I'm sure this was discussed previously, but I don't see it in recent posts, and it bears repeating - the M156 will most surely be the highest output naturally aspired production V8 EVER.
It is the highest output - in the AMG SLS and c63 507/Black Series - and it's highly unlikely to be topped, since everyone's going to turbos.
The new Mustang is supposed to have just over 500 hp, so we'll see what it actually does when it comes out.
For this reason, and others, the M156 will be a future classic!
I'm proud to soon be the owner of one.

WTF is going on with all these dead thread bumps lately by 1-post newbs? Can we flag these to the mods and clean up the front page a bit? @Rock ?
