Its done this way on the Focus ST. Less materials, less distance from the engine to the turbo. Makes sense to me. The aftermarket is booming for that car. The ecoboost will have big turbo kits out within the first year.

With a good tune that psi to compression ratio relationship is realistic. I didnt say it was safe to do on the stock motor, nor do any of us know what the stock motor can withstand. I was simply stating that that psi level is do-able and COULD be safe with that low of a compression ratio...

The auto can handle 800 plus. Have blowing that up with the ecoboost

I would imagine 5-10hp if that on a N/A motor. The ecoboost might be a bit more sensitive.

As per the article it stated that it used 98 RON Calibration for testing. Meaning 93 Octane.

Exactly.

Depends on the size turbo they went with. Id say just a tune would net somewhere around 20-30hp and 40-50 ft lbs.

I like the idea of the post, it was fun when we were all oblivious and it was early in the game. I was one of the first to reply, in fact. But saying that people are smart or dumb based on a guess that nobody had any real facts to back it up on is dumb in itself. All good though.

So you're a dumbass if you thought a car with new intake manifold, heads and cams would gain more than 15hp lol. Alright then. Doesnt make a difference to me though, not gonna change anything.

Not trying to be disrepectful, but who gives a shit who was able to guess the numbers correctly?

So maybe my dealer was right...

So the already awesome automatic has been further improved? Im very happy. I'm also very happy for the MT-82 crowd. I hope this transmission doesnt give anyone any grief like previous years have.

Those chrome tailights and grill :frusty::barf::barf:

It says it was certified based on 98 RON Calibration, which is equal to 93 octane.

Lol @ people not buying the car because the numbers. You would herdly notice a difference between 435 and 445hp. You could take a shit before you drove the car and youd notice a bigger increase is acceleration.

And this car is whatever you want it go be! Drag or Road race. It will still get into the 10's easily(with mods), and it will still be tunable to rip around corners. Its a mustang, which is the best car to make it want you want!

Are these weight numbers legit? I don't remember ford " officially " telling us them.

I might as well name my car Rihanna because this thing is gonna get beat to hell right out of the gate. Then dyno'd :)

I find it amazing that people would have happily bought a 2014 with 420hp. Now that the 15 ONLY has 435hp all the sudden its not impressive and arent happy. I'll happily take the bump in power. Given the internal changes I think that a tune will provide more of a gain than previous. Also, the...

Who wants something like this for when the car comes out? If we can all agree on a color scheme and design I will set up a bulk purchase and mail them to everyone who wants at a great group rate. I for one would proudly represent the forums on my car! I can adjust color, font and what it says...
