Here's evidence that a turbo engine can be every bit as visceral as an NA engine. They just had to take the time to do it right, which Ferrari is the first company to truly try to. Read about how sound and power delivery were some of the main focuses of the engine and not necessarily efficiency, although it is much more efficient than the old California engine. I'll bet money that it gets a better EPA fuel consumption than the S63tu.
