That's because it's in a truck. If I am not mistaken the F150 also uses the coyote 5.0, but in the F150 it makes 360hp @ 5500 rpm and 380 tq @ 4250 rpm. The "little" 3.5 L, although giving up 1.5L does 365hp @ 5000 rpm and 420 tq @ 2500 rpm. And that's from just 6 cylinders! Imagine if it had 8 cylinders! |
Again, let's turbocharge the 8 cylinder and see what ha;ppens. Also, considering ford has a 2 valve 6.2 without the Mustangs trick VVT making 412 HP already, imagine what a 6.2 4 valve with the 5.0s trick tech would do, 475, 500 HP on a very conservative tune?
