Saw this on MSNBC this morning and thought everyone here would be interested to see this one.

I like the quote "It's still a rod-and-piston engine; it just has a lot more electronics on it."

What you guys think?

I'd like to know what the hell he is actually doing inside the engine.

I also like the fact that he is getting that 110 mpg with ethanol. It now gives me more hope for a great gas mileage car that is still fast.

I would want to see this.. Has he had the car dynoed or is he guessing its at 400... Because guessing and actually reaching 400 hp is 2 different things.

I say BS.. He doesnt even have the car licensed.. And when they asked him how fast off the line, he hesitates when he says 3 seconds.. I think the guy thinks he has what hes saying..
