Ford's Coyote V8 responds very well to forced induction. |
The tuning gurus at Hellion have are creating a turbo kit for the 5.0 V8, and the figures are staggering from a stock motor. How does 552 horsepower to the wheels in an automatic transmission Mustang GT sound? That is some serious power and with the aid of the turbo, a stump pulling 605 lb-ft. of torque is generated. Even more shocking is this fire breathing power is produced with only 6 psi of boost on pump gasoline. For enthusiasts driving a manual transmission Mustang GT, the same 6 pounds of boost will net them an incredible 640 horsepower and 748 lb-ft. of torque! Who knows how high those numbers will get if a reinforced engine block were to be used. Regardless, we have to tip our hats to the team at Ford for making such a marvelous engine.
