just reported: Mustang likely to get Ecoboost

[A_A_G]

Same reason why they make an Ecoboost V6 in the F150 that produces similar HP to the V8... improved fuel economy.

It's not that much better than the 5.0 and its actually worse when you use the truck for towing. You cant beat that low end torque though from the ecoboost.

An ecoboost coyote in the stang would be nice.

As Yale said, the sense is made in CAFE.

Psh! Don't none of these fools listen to me!

It's just that the MPG figures look good to customers and for the board of directors.

It also makes for good commercials talking about how "green" Ford is, and if introducing a 300 HP 32+ MPG Mustang allows Ford to continue making the V8 Mustang GT, then I am fine with it.

Is there any aftermarket Ecoboost parts available yet?

They're also racing to meet stricter mileage standards, but your cynicism is understandable.

Yeah, I'm well aware of the looming CAFE standard, which is why I said that if introducing an ecoboot 4 banger will allow Ford to continue making the Mustang GT, then I am fine with it.

new 5.0 4v, direct injected, twin turbocharged...that would be nice.

Maybe that's what they have in store for the 2015 Mustang GT500?
