none of this waiting half an hour to come on cam or having to drop 4 gears from cruising speed/gear to go for it properly.
It's the whole thing of having torque wherever you want it below 3000rpm, then after 3000rpm, the torque may be dropping but the power is still increasing as revs rise, so you've got the max pull ... The power spread is so much greater, no wrenching at the gearbox to get the right gear... You can go 90% as quick with 10% of the effort, but when you put in 100% of your effort, you get places even quicker... There's no engine that wil have the split personality of a Diesel...
