I get that this is a logical assumption, but logic does not make it "correct." Even the most well thought out, logical assumption (scientists call them hypotheses) remains an assumption unless you have data to prove it "correct." Where's your data?Except the assumption is correct and it is based on logic and data...
Ahhh, you have no data....such as most people that post here have some type of mod/plan, although there is no exact percentage
You can't make a claim of fact without data. Where's your data?...fact is most people here are enthusiasts and most enthusiast are more likely to mod hence why we only hear the stories of blown motors of enthusiasts who modded here.
Another unsubstantiated claim of fact. Where's your data?It is a fact that people who are not enthusiasts are most likely to leave it stock therefore likely not even know about mustang6g or care to post...
This is called anectodal evidence; it proves nothing.A perfect example who I personally know someone who owns one, he has no clue about mods or tuning or care about forums, he just likes it and it looks nice", If it blows he doesn't care, he will take it straight to the dealer you would never know. So to assume only modded ones are blowing up is idiotic at best.
You like "logical" assumptions, but choose not to accept the logic of the assumption that retuning the engine to produce more power increases stress on its parts, thereby increasing the likelihood of failure and/or long-term durability issues. Why? Because we have incomplete data to support such an assumption, which is true. Similarly, we have no data to support your logical assumption about the proclivities of "enthusiasts" (definition?) and forum readers (is that someone who reads any Mustang forum, only this forum, or only this sub on this forum?) to modify their cars (is that engine mods only, or ANY mod?).
Here's a question for you: The only mod I've made to my car is an aftermarket shift knob, but I read and participate on this forum (and others) and in this sub (and others). Am I an enthusiast, or just a knob? (I'm leaning toward the latter, but I do like to let the pony run every once in a while. :lol: )
This is real simple: We have no data, and therefore no basis on which to draw conclusions about reliability/durability of Ford's Turbo 2.3L 4cyl--modded or unmodded, period.
