I believe that Vandijk's site has the "sound" of the engine....
He is one of the guys who runs the PlanetLeMans website... Also, if you look through this index of Forums, look for other "Taurus Diesel" Threads...I remember him attaching a link that would let you hear the sound of the engine as well... |

Our work has turbo-diesel trucks and they emit that same high pitched whine at freeway revs, so I suspect that is the turbo that you here in the clip. As far as the visible exhaust, it really wasn't that bad, a little mapping work at the bottom of the rev range would clean that right up, if you watch it stops smoking maybe 100 feet or so down track.

I'll be meeting with Simon Dawson at Le Mans, so if there's anything you'd like me to ask him (or if you'd like me to tape the engine sounds for you), let me know.
