Hello everybody. I´m new to this board and want to share some interesting news.
Yesterday, i had the pleasure to talk with the COE of AVL Schrick. They produce components for the W16 engine, build the engine and tests them in their facility. At the factory visit i saw a ready to ship W16 and the prototype of a 1500hp engine at the dyno. It was the W16 with bigger turbo chargers. The CEO told me that the rumours are true and that the engine is already under development. The prototype might be ready till christmas. Further the car could be named "chiron".

I also was sceptical about the new name. Wasn´t the concept car "chiron" more a grand turismo than a sports car? Now a 1500hp GT would be absolutly rediculous. But i really like the design of the concept.

1,600hp Bugatti SuperVeyron Arrives Next Year 
1,600hp Bugatti SuperVeyron Arrives Next Year
New information has been released regarding the new 1,600hp Bugatti Veyron, which will be the world’s fastest supercar when it arrives next year and is released at the 2013 IAA Motor Show. The renders released by 290mph Bugatti Veyron | Auto Express show how the all-new ‘super’ Veyron could look like. Chief vehicle engineer Jens Schulenburg told the British magazine;
We are working on the next super-sports car. The big challenge will be reducing weight – we are looking at some incredible technologies, such as wheels made entirely from carbon fiber. We’re considering hybrids, too.
The development and release of the Veyron Hyper Sport includes a lower weight of 250kg via the use of even more carbon fiber, more horsepower and an even more mind-boggling top speed of 288mph. Driven, as usual, by grandmaster Ferdinand Piech himself, the Ultra Bugatti gets a beefed up 8.0 liter (or 9.6 liter) engine that delivers 1,600hp.
The rumored acceleration time from 0-100km/h is 1.8 seconds, which would better the upcoming Ferrari Enzo replacement and the McLaren P1 hypercar. The secret to all this is a weight saving of almost 550 pounds over the Veyron Super Sport. At 3,527 pounds, the limited-edition Veyron for the super mad and the super rich achieves a power-to-weight ratio of one kg (2.2 pounds) per hp.

So i was right about the hybridization and the weight, 250kgs, and the fact that its almost certain its a new model, not a Veyron. Now i understand why they stop the development in the Galibier engine.
Great news!!
