yea, i cant think of any 2.0L I4's, (and no turbocharger) that give as much torque...

closest thing is the 2.2L S2000 with 162 lb-ft, and back when it was 2.0L, it had 153 lb-ft, so really, a small I4 is not built for torque, unless you give it a turbo. in which case you can do things like the evolution VIII, 276 lb-ft out of four half-liter cylinders...
