This comes as a surprise. All these rumors about the 5.5 direct injection engine turned out to be false.

So much for the "5.5 Liter" engine hype. As to "active management" it should be interesting to see how this works on the street and track for hard usage. Time will tell. 450/450 is good tho!

more widely-read in C6 tho.
