Does everyone agree that boxer is better?
It seems to me that for same displacement same cylinder count, boxer engine will be heavier compared to inline. The reason is, IMHO, twice the amount of heads, twice the amount of camshafts.
And, poor stupid me always have the impression that weight is the enemy?

The weight is split in equal halves. The cams are half the length of the evo's. A set on each side. Not to mention the crank is much shorter on the boxer engine. The heads are also split equally. This would suggest that the boxer will spin quicker than an inline 4.
