400HP 2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost
Not Bad.
From the article:
The 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine of the ‘Stang was taken to over 400 ponies and 400 lb-ft (542 Nm), which is quite a long way from the factory stock rating of 310 hp and 230 lb-ft (312 Nm).

I wonder what the cost of mods were. I would expect a 400 horsepower Ecoboost will turn some impressive quarter mile times. The 4 cylinder block should handle 24 psi boost for quite a while. I so want an Ecoboost to play with as a fun car.

I will be getting my Ecoboost tuned by Roush soon. I drove an Ecoboost Roush yesterday that has this new tune, which is covered under factory warranty. I was quite impressed! It puts down about 326hp to the wheels. Not sure about the torque numbers. I will keep you posted.

As great as this is, to me it is similar to a 150 pound guy lifting 275 pounds, whereas a 225 pound guy can lift the same 275 pounds without sweating. Work a four cylinder to death to achieve the same horsepower as the 5.0...WHY? Just sayin'

I have supercharged Mustangs for when I want max power. I drive my Ecoboost Mustang daily for work, which is mostly highway. The new tune will give me a nice balance of economy and power. That's my reasoning. So far my best mileage on a 200 mile trip has been 33.9 mpgs.

I get what you're saying but this is a bad analogy. If a 150LBS guy can lift 275lbs where as a 225lbs guy can lift 275, to me, the 150lbs guy is stronger. Meaning if I am following you, the EB has better potential.
