Here's a picture of Cadillac's new EcoBoost errr I mean new twin turbo, DI V6 engine.
Wonder how long will it take GM to put this under the hood of a truck?

Wonder why Cadillac didn't copy the ED?
Doesn't anyone remember when Cadillac came out with their 4-6-8 engine several years ago?
That one came out with huge hype talk of incredible gas mileage savings and just the right amount of power when needed...and was just as quickly put back to bed never to be heard of again.
I think the Cadillac 4-6-8 engine came out more than several years ago. More like about 3 decades or so ago.
def: 'Several' is a word that shows size or number when you can’t be specific or when you want to summarize." :W
Seams that Cadillac's idea 30 years ago has now been adopted with good success since the technology has improved to support such a idea.

When I heard about the 'new' ecoboost it sounded exactly like the same as the 4-6-8 was. I drove one and it did have its troubles searching where it needed to be.
so yup, I think it's off the same drawing board and no extra money invested just like you said with new tech it is improved so it would work.
Plus the fact why not drag it back out? It will be 'new' to the current generation. :W
