Wonder what mods we can do to the new 2018 Coyote engine to bring that HP / TQ up par with the Camaro?


"Mustang GT gets an updated 5.0-liter Coyote V8 with both port and direct fuel injection which allows Ford to increase the V8's compression ratio from 11.0:1 to 12.0:1"

Odds are it will already be at or beyond the capabilities of the LT1 straight from the factory.

Clickbait? No one even knows what the 18 hp/tq are yet. They could be over the Camaro stock

The same mods you do now will work on the 18.

A possibility that 18's engine might be good enough that Ford will put the same engine in the new s650 gt with lighter weight, slightly higher output and call the day. So we better hope for a really good engine!

New 5.0 Coyote Engine Potential

And the required "expert" coming in telling us how evil DI/PI is and how we're all fools for wanting it.
"Modern technology allows our racing generation to get the best of both worlds. High boost pressures with high compression ratios"

So just imagine the power gains on this new coyote engine with DI/PI & 11.0:1 or 12.0:1 compression! I just wished Ford would release more specifics on the new 5.0 coyote engine. The crank is the only carry over from the previous engine. So what are we looking at in terms of pistons & rods - forged ?

That is what I was getting at starting this thread. ;)
