And talking about F1, down to 1.6L turbo 4-bangers? Doesn't sound like a 'premier' F1 engine anymore  . They will sound like motorcycles now, but with a flat crank (I don't like too much how they sound), shouldn't sound that different. I just don't think that engine belongs to the premier F1 racing series IMO. NA engines are disappearing faster than I thought  . Oh well. Thanks for the info man  ; hope you had a great weekend. |
i completely understand where you're coming from, i was thoroughly into all-motor only on the past few cars i've had (bmw and a couple of hondas). after driving a twin turbo bmw, however, i slowly came around to the dark side and hope that more and more mfgs offer turbocharged cars in the coming years. it'll happen to you, too
