WOW...those are big numbers, but the fact thet the stock internals are supporting boost like that is very impressive. 17 PSI from twins on a V10. Those would spool insanely quickly and give anyone the ride of their life. Build that engine up to still be reliable and have a good idle and I wouldn't be able to think of a beter high performance car out there.

I agree with you completely, but isn't the Diablo a V12? AWD makes it even better
