I think this will be the next story on things to come but they need to find out how to get things done in the S8 engine controller avoiding getting in to problems replacing the VGT turbo on the XPI engines and if we can make close to 900Hp on a 13L 6 line commonrail with about 2,3Bar of boost and EGT on 730 degrees C is only a small jump to calculating what a 16.4L V8 can handle with ease as the Brake-Specific Fuel Consumption is a lot better.

Maybe finnish Scanias use different cams but euro3 cam is not good for power. Timing is limited to about max 15° btdc, euro4 cam gets over 20°.
VGT problem is already solved.
