Not everyone that the ecoboost appeals to is after a few extra MGPs.
I've owned two 87-88 Tbirds, and an 86 SVO. Moved to a 1999 corvette about 11-12 years ago and have missed my turbo since. For me it's about the sound of the turbo and being the underdog with the tiny motor. My C5 has about...
That's cause it's fabricated. Read the link provided in a previous post. Last few paragraphs.https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2014/07/17/ford-engineer-is-composer.html
I dunno why anyone would want fake engine sounds coming out the speakers. My '86 SVO sounded pretty...
Actually it's the opposite. Turbo cars benefit from biggest exhaust you can fit on them. the less backpressure the better. Go too big on a NA car and you'll lose power.
Of course if you have a dinky turbo, the gains won't be as great as with a bigger one. But the bigger the exhaust...
Whatever it is, I'm sure you'll get a decent amount more HP with just a 3" downpipe and higher flowing exhaust, and improved intake filter/box. That's the beauty of turbo cars.
My 86 SVO probably had between 300-350hp w/ cam, bigger injectors, T3/T4 turbo, a K&N filter, 3" down pipe into 2.5"...
I like it as well. Looks better than the stock front end... Which I thought was the least likable aspect of the resign. I'm not a fan of the big bulky retro looks, and the Saleen change makes it look mean and more aerodynamic.

Basically ford dumped Microsoft and is moving to blackberry's QNX OS. http://www.engadget.com/2014/02/23/ford-reportedly-dropping-windows-in-favor-of-qnx-for-sync/
I was curious when those changes might take place.

Nobody really knows, cause ford hasn't released anything officially. Also premium doesn't come with the shaker sound unless you pick the 201A package vs 200A.
