nooooo come on now lets face it audi and pug done so well at le mans because they use diesels! no ruling factors just outright diesel power. they sound awesome aswell with the waste gates chattering away through corners, no comparison to the Vetts tho ah matc? ;-)
back to topic tho, if u want more room don't go for another zs Dan, loosin a v6 for a tractor, no gains in it really. what about a zt-t ? 1.8 turbo? 160 horses and just a nice k series to play with. they r huge aswell! I love driving my dads zt turbo, great fun ;-)

Yep .... I'd have a ZT-T in an heart-beat. Either that or a pre-March 2001 V70 T5 . Interestingly, I got an email today from a dealer with a 2000 W T5 (108K) but with a scratch on the drivers door, offerring me the T5 and £500 for mine.....Could be the one.

Compared with a turbocharged gasoline-fueled car, the diesels enjoy a 50-percent larger displacement limit, a 52-percent larger intake restrictor, and an absolute boost pressure limit nearly twice as high. Additionally, the diesels are allowed variable nozzle turbines in their turbochargers.
