A turbo 4 banger with 305 bhp is actually kind of cool...if it was in a car not named "Mustang."Originally Posted by LittleLebowski
Sigh, such is the way all of things, it seems. Turbo 4s and 6s replacing 8s, 8s replace V10s and V12s. All to save the polar bears. **** you, CAFE.
The V6 and V8 are still options. Maybe not for long, but they're still there.
This isn't the first time Ford's done this with the Mustang.

I haven't read the article, but a turbo 4 makes a lot of sense as a replacement for the base 6 banger depending on production costs.

Dude, the Mustang SVO was cool.
What matters is the power. It doesn't matter how many or few cylinders, how big or small they are, or whether the car runs on gas, oil, or electrons.
If it'll light the tires, I'll huff the smoke.
Yeah, but the last time they dropped a turbo four-banger, the V-8 of the day made less than half as many horses as the new four does...
And, to reiterate, the V-8 hasn't gone anywhere. So I don't understand why this is an issue.
The nerd in me agrees...... But, there is just something about the sound of a well tuned V-8.Dude, the Mustang SVO was cool.

Years back, we had a wrecked Taurus SVO in the yard. Until the day we got rid of the thing, guys were pestering me to sell them the exhaust manifold?
