From a description of the Ferrari California T
"Anche per il suono, con alcuni accorgimenti come ***l’albero piatto*** e lo scarico trifuso, è stato possibile creare un suono intenso e avvolgente come si richiede a ogni Ferrari e nessun turbo era mai riuscito a fare."
is it as simple as "flat drive shaft"?
Thanks for any help!

La caratteristica di un motore ad albero piatto è quella di avere l'albero motore con i perni di biella a 180 gradi, in modo che giacciano su di un unico piano. Da qui deriva la definizione di "piatto". - http://www.ferrari.com/Italian/GT_Sport_Cars/Classiche/Tutti...
