Jeez, if this wasn't linked to an official Ford website then I'd call this pure balderdash. It sounds completely fanciful to the point that I'm convinced the press release should've been dated 01.04.2006. Twin superchargers? Where will they fit them and how will they drive them?

Manual gearboxes to handle 745 Nm? At the far end of plausible. 820 Nm? Ludicrous.

Hmph, I wonder if the Ford webmaster was spliffing it up on that day?
If this turns out to be true then I'll be shocked senseless.
