The MYT engine is yet another new engine technology, new industrial revolution, blah blah blah.
However, instead of running on compressed air or using hydrogen, this one runs on good-old fashioned diesel - though, with a little work, used oil from Taco Bell should work just fine.

The idea is pretty simple - just put all the pistons in one tube, which is shaped into a loop. When one piston fires, it moves forward - the other side then compresses gas between it and the next piston. While the specs are a bit overstated (for example, it would appear to rev much lower than a normal V8), the fact remains: This is a really tiny engine that can produce a lot of horsepower, and with a bit of work, we can have teenagers killing themselves at greater velocities than ever before.
