230bhp@8600 from 1.8ltrs = 14.857
I take it that this theory doesn't apply to rotary engines (RX8)
231bhp@8200 from 1.3ltrs = 21.67

Yeah, there is some argument as to whether the RX8 motor is 1.3L or 2.6L. I disagree with Chicane on whether the MEP concept can be used with rotaries. I would guess that the MEP concept applies to any type of motor without forced induction. Is that K1.8 motor turbocharged? The specs I've seen on the K1.8 are that it only puts about around 120 HP.
