Let´s just hope for the same material in the new 6,4 liter Power Stroke. Just imagine 500 hp and 1000 Nm ( 737.56 lbf·ft) and 21.383 miles/gallon from a 6 liter engine. Compare with the old PS...

I would think since it uses the same style injection system it would lend some relevance to this forum.
I got a woody reading about it /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif
I don't think it's so unrelated. Technology is technology, no matter where it comes from; & competition improves the breed. However, if you look at the 6L shootout, & account for the fact that the Audi power is measured at the crank, you will see that Innovative Diesel's extreme tune is about the same horsepower, & more torque; albeit the Audi makes torque sooner in the RPM range.

General diesel is just that "general".
If not here, where?
I found the article interesting
If they weren't so expensive, I'd go get one just for the engine.
60 degree v 12's are the smoothest thing this side of a turbine, and they sound awesome.
If this motor does well, I can't wait to see a stroked version, maybe 8 or 9 liters in a truck, that would put all of the current offerings by the major manufacturers back one generation.
If you haven't heard a V12 you are missing a treat to your ears.
I want to see one hot-rodded, stuffed into a pulling truck, and see what it will do.

Dang! I thought this was a GENERAL DIESEL section.

This thread started out in the 6.4L diesel section, so those posts were referring to where it was at the time. Now that the mods moved it, they don't make much sense...
At least I can read the dyno chart as it is in the right language. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Anyhow the sooner or later we'll see this technology in our rigs. I am saying technology here not engines. Just look at the 6.4 and the common rail.
If I had the serious money this vehicle demanded I would own one. It is a sweet ride. (Also could pull a serious camper!)
