I thought the s4 was twin charged but i'm not seeing the supercharged/blown portion, just turbos.

This thing is Outstanding. I'm not sure If I want this or this exact thing in a 4 door 8' bed truck more but either way I would love to have something like this to tow/go to the depot with.. Maybe not that extreme but a bagged Chevy of that generation looks nice.

That's because it's not an S4. It's the ECV1. Experimental Composite Vehicle 1. Carbon fiber EVERYTHING, even wheels.

No, there is absoluty nothing redeming about that vehicle in any way. It's E36 M3 like this that causes people to form 'associations' to keep this junk out of where ever I want to live!

An explanation is necessary, because this motor makes ZERO sense to me.

Has it somehow split the exhaust valves so that 4 valves feed the left side, and 4 valve feed the right side?

In reply to Swank Force One:

Yeah, that's what it looks like here:

Intake on diagonal valves, exhaust on diagonal valves, exiting opposite each other.

4 valve, 4 port head. One valve and port per side feeds the turbo on that side. So 4 valves/ports each side feed each turbo. The turbo outlets feed a common plenum which also feed one valve/port per side

Explanation on how the motor works: http://www.ecv1.com/e-motore.htm

You probably need to drink a lot of Cappucino to come up with that.
