that sound is just wonderful
too bad they are going to change the V8 to a V6 engine with the 2014 season

#4 F1 engines have around 700-750hp I doubt that you got an engine with less than 1hp...
(1% would be ~7-7.5hp)

I would try to become a F1 driver just to be able to hear those glorious engine notes

F1 "only" consumes about 50 liters per 100km.. 2014 Turbos are gonna sound awesome, the turbo revs over 20000RPM (around 100k...) so it's main sound is not heard by humanears leaving the engine sound more pristine.. With less revs and more intake manifold pressure... It's gonna be sweet. Too bad we won't hear the traditional turbo blowback valve sound, they are gonna reuse that pressure to keep the turbo flowing on up/downshifts, not to mention there's gonna be almost zero turbo lag as the whole thing is attached to an electric motor/generator that can pre-spin the turbo on low revs..
