I bet that LP640 would walk on a Buggati and as for the engine i think a W-16 with 4 turbos is a BIG JOKE you gear that LP640 with a 7 speed and i bet it will beat the Bugatti all the way!!! I would love to see it!!

I agree with Loz. The reliability of the Veyrons engine is much better expecially in areas with heat.

Also a disadvantage of 2big turbos is that you have all the power only when you rev it high enough.
With smaller turbos you need not to rev it that high for maximum power.

I think the boost on these turbo’s are turned up quite high making them a little unreliable :D plus there probably bigger than the veyrons!

some torque to make the 3 tons move and accelerate to 400 before you run out of petrol…

Why did VW had to put 4 turbos in the Veyron to reach 1000 hp, while they get 1300 with 2 ?
