Amazing how violent the combustion is, yet it seems so smooth from the outside.

^ I allways thought it was more of an even burn.. Instead of resembling ground fire..

I thought the same! I bet thats why GM is coming out with that HC engine that drieclty injects the fuel and ignites it by compression rather than the traditional spark. It uses far lees fuel to make the same power. they said something like a 20-30 percent increase in efficiency!

But has anyone noticed from Mazda, Audi, and GM the only three I know of offering cars with direct injection, they are all turbo cars (including diesels), wonder when they'll start coming out the NA cars with direct injection.
