how much HP can you get out of the 2.3L with a tune?

Bone stock car, tune only? Around 300hp/400tq. All depends on fuel quality and location really.
as in no other mods?

just wanted to clarify this, as lightly modded Focus STs with the 2.0 and the stock K03 turbo are around 300whp/400tq on the stock turbo with intake, exhaust/downpipe intercooler and tune.

I'd imagine much higher on the Mustang.

Full bolt on Focus ST's with Cobb tune put down about 280hp on our dyno. The mustang turbo isn't much bigger, but you just compared a full bolt on Focus to a bone stock Mustang with a tune. If you do intercooler, tune, and good fuel the Ecoboost Mustang will make near 330whp. I can make about 350whp on a intercooler/tune only Mustang on E30 fuel.

yeah, that's why I figured I'd ask, merely for curiosity sake. My ST was @ 291/396 on 93 octane on the east coast before I moved to california with the noted mods above.

Pretty cool the EcoStang starts out there without mods. :-)

pretty cool how a direct bolt on turbo swap on these gets you to 400whp pretty quickly.

You will be looking at around 310-400. Stock with tune vs. bolt ons (intercooler, downpipe, tune, and intake while running on 93 or E30)
