Just imagine if some OEM would turbocharge a 6 to 7 litre spark engine to make 700lbs-ft of quiet torques at 1800 rpm instead of 4000...

Yes, the performance would be awesome. The only problem is where to place the massive fuel tank necessary to feed that beast. Can't even imagine how much fuel a turbo-charged, 6-7 litre gasser would use under heavy, continuous load. One of the reasons why diesel is the engine of choice in the heavy trucking world.
Don't F150 EcoBoosts'sz get 28mpg all the time?
