Wrong....Things that won't work on a production GT500 that needs over 750hp?
1.) Supercharger of any kind (TVS or not, 650-700hp)
2.) Parallel Twin Turbo system (Ford GT, Cobra Jet, EU-01. Most power, heat and size/weight)
3.) Single turbo using the Twin Scroll feature (Basic Ecoboost, making 600-650hp)
4.) Displacement under 5.0 liters (150hp per liter)
5.) Flat Plane Crank (Forced induction on an FPC is scary, especially over 5.0)
Last option is a Bi-Turbo cross plane crank V8 that displaces over 5.0 liters. I believe it will be a CPC 5.4 Bi-Turbo (Dual Staged Turbos) and at least ONE of the turbos in the Bi-Turbo system will be a Twin Scroll. I believe a Twin Scroll can be used within either system.
The new GT500 will have a 5.2 CPC with a 2.6L Eaton SC and be in the range of 750-760HP.
There are a couple folks here that have good connections with Ford. I know someone that has an in with Roush as well. I shared what has been posted here over the last week and when I brought up what a couple folks have shared, he asked, how in the world did you hear that info an by who. He then went on to confirm what was shared as what I typed above.
Like I said in the other thread on this topic. We will see how accurate some of our inside information is....I believe my source but like always, we can be wrong:ford:
