I know it's not XM...not even Citroen, and I'm not sure if it's been posted on here already, but for those who havn't seen it before, this might be worth a look.....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MBYg1NPzMY There are several other vids about it, look up MYT engine Convinced/Unconvinced? Here's their website http://www.angellabsllc.com/index.html And here's one where it's running.......hmmm not sure http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Itl9ipaIJ_o&feature=related Any comments.................

Looks interesting but I wonder if it uses as much oil as a RX8 and how they'll clean the exhaust of all the emissions?
Only had a quick look so I could be talking nonsense! Steve. -------------------- XM 2.1 SED - RP5876

Looking at all those pistons thrashing backwards and forwards its a wonder it doesn't self destruct! And how come only the piston rings not the skirts touch the bore?

The pistons don't go backwards and forwards, they all move in one direction.
I'd like to see it demonstrated under load. As far as I know their amazing power output claims are only estimations, maybe it's just pie in the sky........but who knows. -------------------- 94M 2.0 Turbo Exclusive auto hatch, Green, RP 6552

Yeah very interesting, but has it actually run? and a minimum of 850HP ????? from something the size of an alternator????? The inventor is barking mad, or about to be filthy rich

Can't help being sceptical but it sounds about the right noise for all thoe cylinders. If it's a hoax, it looks a very expensive one. If there is any truth in it, it will probably dissapear without trace, like most of those inventions on 'Tomorrows World' Remember them?

Not impressed by the MYT engine?
Well how about this one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CmGJucRDBk&feature=related I havn't a clue how it transmits power to the crank, but the computer animation is good and aparently it does run and has been dyno tested. -------------------- 94M 2.0 Turbo Exclusive auto hatch, Green, RP 6552

As you say, impressive animation but not enough detail.

I don't think they're lubricated by mineral oil, it smells like snake oil.
