Btw, check out last week's Autoweek. Diesels are coming back! I wouldn't mind having a turbo in a sports sedan. Whats not to like about passing a rude driver in 6th gear?
In the article, they said, HP is for Speed, Torque is for Acceleration.
the article stated common knowledge. then tell me why diesels are so slow if they got so much low end torque. its because when you shift at 4,000 rpm you arent able to take advatage of the gearing. so they are still slow.
