Holy crap, that's some engine. Mind you, those Q7's are big, pointless cars to the owners of S & RS Audis I reckon :)

I would agree about vehicle - was more interested in engine & power.

2,000bar of fuel pressure, just how on earth do they contain that??????

we blow bottles with 40bar of air and trust me, when a pipe goes you better not be anywhere near it. 2,000bar is just an incredible figure.

1bar = 14.5psi
2,000bar = 29,000psi or 1,000 times the pressure in an avarage car tyre

that would be incredible if i didn't know about the race winner. i guess they can fit that in further back and have the front drive under the engine from the gearbox like a landy then

i have 20,000psi on my 20 year old v8 diesel, not common rail though!
