I saw this motor on display at the Nurburgring museum.  It looks rather
stock, except for the turbo hanging off the side that's about the size of my
head.  

I wish I could have seen an F1 race during the turbo era.  The NA cars
aren't exactly boring, though - those cars are just unbelievably fast and
very loud.  The shreek from a V10 spinning at 18k should send shivers up the
spine of any gearhead.
