Traded my EcoBoost for a GT...

[sauerkraut]

Count me as one of those that will be keeping their EB. Yeah sure, I'd like to have a GT, but in recent years I've grown an affinity for boosted cars. Some folks like the V8 rumble, others like me love the sound of turbo spool and chatter instead.

I don't blame you... I had a 2010 Mazdaspeed 3 for two years and holy crap...when that turbo spooled it was just f*ing addicting, that car literally tries to kill you. Unfortunately I started hating the hatchback looks and I kind of felt like a highschool/college kid driving the thing. I do miss it though.
I wonder if the EB Mustang feels the same...

I felt the same way about my GTI.

i used to love the turbo spool sound on my wrx, along with the sound it makes when u come off of boost, even though it didn't have a BOV and was just a BPV, but it still made the sound very loud due to the intake.

but then i had to put an external wastegate on it because it suffered from boost creep once i upgraded the fuel system on it. then it started sounding like this.

it sounded like the car was broken, with it dumping straight from the headers basically, lol.

Never drove a GTi but I only hear good things about them...probably the only hatchback I would want now. ANd maybe an Audi Rs3 sportback.

Nothing like that. I owned a fiesta st before this and I felt that way. The ecoboost premium is a classy car that looks and feels very much like an adult car.

Full bolt on is one thing. Doing a turbo swap on the EB is a lot of money. I will get a GT before I swap turbos in this car.

Big turbo EB all day long.

You should try it. There is nothing better than boost.

I can only imagine how powerful the coyote would be with a twin turbo.

Also how amazing it would sound. A true monster.
