The N57S is an incredible engine - 125h/L from a diesel? This state of the art engine is now making over 50hp more than its state of the art gasoline counterpart. And this level of power was previously unheard of in a production automobile (even 100hp is rare - basically limited to just BMW and Audi). If they can get that much power from a diesel then there is no doubt in my mind they can get 150hp/L with a gasoline engine using similar technology.
