This article sure presents some interesting perspectives about diesel motors and I am curious to see if, where and when this racing technology (i.e. 815 lb-ft!!) will be offerred to the public. Pretty impressive numbers and the latest iterations seem to break the stereo types of dirty, noisy diesel motors of the past.
