Why not? Plenty of booster E92 M3s with high compression ratios and high rpm ceilings. I wouldn't so it myself, but there's no reason why you couldn't boost it.
Autccorect destroyed my post.
You're absolutely correct not upsetting the balance of this car. The boost question was just a question.
Wow, that will make a very "throttle responsive" car.
as doc holiday said, it is capable but safely is the key. This technology is pretty much brand new to Ford. I may be wrong about this, but I don't think they've ever made 100 HP/Liter NA from factory before. From what I've read they had to dial back the power a bit as it gave them issues otherwise. All of this taken into account was why I bought the 5.0. It has been proven to make good power reliably over the last few years, and this year they only improved it further. This new 5.2 will probably take a few years for Ford to iron out the design and then it'll most likely replace the coyote as long as emissions and safety standards don't stand in the way. Making it in limited numbers reduces the cost if they start failing and require a TSB or a recall all together. The engine in theory, should be fairly strong but with high quality parts comes high cost. We shall see how it turns out in the coming years with abuse...
Even then, it should have good straight line speed.
