    All I say is, about effing time. Obviously, demand and the impatience of the american people has dictated that they produce larger engines to satisfy the thirst for power and instant delivery. More developement into variable geometry turbines is needed.

    Also I seem to recall honda has some variable exhaust tech on the turbo used on the Acura RDX. I would love to see what 5-10 years of industry-wide serious turbo research could yeild. :yumyum:

    Ford is giving us a 340hp AWD twin turbo taurus.
    They get to whatever they want as far as i'm concerned.
