True, still weak, tho...

 

Weak statements get weak remarks.

 

, but is 700 horsepower enough ?

 

I,m waiting until 16 to see what other options and models come out,then i think i,ll sell my 12 gt and see if i can afford a GT350!!

I believe that the 2011-2014 Coyote 5.0 motor already has forged rods and a forged crankshaft. I'm not 100% sure, but almost certain.

 

Is this an upgrade from the 13-14? Not really sure what the current coyote has.

Al - 2011-2014 is essentially the same GT 5.0 motor (some very minor changes). I was responding to LaserRed (Patrick) who said:

I was pointing out that the existing motor (2011-2014 GT) already has some forged internals (rods & crank), so the 2015 enhancements are elsewhere.

 

Gotcha, I guess I forgot the rods and crank were forged on the 11-14s too...

Yeah, the Coyote GT motor is a pretty stout and capable package from the factory - with pretty modern technology (really only missing direct-injection). It's not the Boss powerplant, to be sure, but still very strong internally.

 

I really am curious what the differences will be between the '14 coyote and the '15. I'm not expecting much. I mean... it's already SoOo good!

 

Sinter forged powdered metal rods, the rods are shaped using a sintering process then placed in a forge to further compact and densify the rod material.

 

Ewww dude! Lol j/k.....(not really)

 

If I remember right (if not I'm sure I'll be corrected) the 11-14 gt has forged rods where the boss has the same rods but also forged crank and pistons.

I believe the 15 gt picks up the boss crank but not pistons.

 

There's a lot of people who look at horsepower potential when buying a mustang. Not how much factory horsepower they come with stock. But how much power can I get out of it before it blows up. Hopefully the 15 does in fact have better internals.

As mentioned in my previous posts, 2011-2014 GT motor has forged rods and forged crank.

 

The only thing that comes forged on the Coyote is the crank while the Boss has a forged motor and that is essentially what the 15 will be getting except the 15 will have high strength steel piston heads.

 

the Boss isn't Fully forged, it has powder forged rods, it is stronger, but is nowhere near actually forged.

 

I'm confused...

 

Yes, I think i know what my engine has in it :P. They can only hold about the same power as a GT500 can which honestly is going to do the job for 90% of the people here. I guess I could have used better wording

Check the spec sheet. I think you are incorrect. 2011-2014 5.0 GT motor has a forged crank AND forged connecting rods.
