[QUOTE="meaty mac, post: 9043031, member: 9208"] No kidding. If Ford ever does offer Twin Turbos on a DI 5.0 DOHC, people will forget all about the blown 5.4 Bigger bore with less stroke means piston speed will be reduced (without sacrificing power) making it easier to turn massive rpm's- the hallmark of a true performance engine. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to spin a Ford V8 to 7k with stock cams? I think they can match the low end that you get with a roots blown 5.4, but once you hit mid range..bye bye. I also think Ford has re thought and therefore, really stepped up their whole performance game. After all, we're talking muscle car V8's here, not grocery getting 4 cyl's. (Not that they don't have plans for those too, but you know what I mean) When you think about it, they really did well with the ol 5.4 though. Been in a shitload of vehicles over the years. [/QUOTE]
