Are ecoboost engines the future? They deliver far better performance than a superchargered V8 counterpart yet weigh less.

>>15377362
nah, v6 is trash. Ford literally built that GT engine tailored specifically to LeMans displacement guidelines.
it's an engine of compromise.
v8 is better, v12 is best.
>>15377373
They won't. It adds unnecessary weight.

Although this is all shitposting, I'm anxious to see how these Ecoboost engines in trucks and sports cars hold up over time.
The one good thing about American cars and pickups is that you don't have to check the oil every time you get gas and they will still run 300k miles. And the sports cars require much less service than similar European cars.
Sounds nice under warranty, but I want my F-250 with 180k miles to be reliable when I'm towing my boat 200 miles in the heat of summer.

There are plenty of EcoBoost engines running over 200k miles. 300k? I'm not sure.
>>15377480
>sees shit that's not even there
Just fuck off already nignog.
>>15377424
That's not a v12 though
>>15377491
Are you illiterate?
>>15377445
Not everyone drives a tiny clown car, therefore weight isn't an important factor for trucks.
It'd be like saying your brain adds any coherent thought process to your being, despite trolling in /o/ with reaction images. Obviously, your head is just an empty shell.
>rumored to have a V8
>Literally says it will have a 5.0 V8 Ecoboost
I know truth hurts, it must feel bad not being able to hold onto an argument anymore.
>>15377498
isn't the testarossa a legit 180 degree v12?
>>15377480
>no argument
What exactly is there to argue? The post said that a twin turbo 5.0 was being developed and the link confirms it.
>>15377428
Aw shit nigga that gets my hopes up. Hopefully if they plan on adding Turbos to the Mustang they go Turbo V8.
>>15377475
LS engines or V8 Mustang engines vs a V8 in a BMW or Audi...
Most Yuro 6cyl engines were pretty good, BMW's I6's were great aside from the VANOS issue but anything more than that has big issues in lots of cases.

It exists, it's just not going in the Raptor. It's going in the GT500.
>>15377512
Ford will never make a V8 turbo mustang. Their crowd is all about the muscle car and sound, they have to be N/A to sound good.
>>15377543
Do you have proof it's not going into the raptor?

It's about as logical as using wikipedia as a source, try again

Or, in your case, turbochargered.

>imblyign I'm talking about brand new cars when I mention VANOS issues and LS engines
I'm talking about the old big lazy V8s that would run forever. Plus I said the BMW I6's were good engines anyway, it's the V8s that were fucked in most cases. Go drive an old 7series around for a few years with minimal maintenance. Then cruise a V8 Mustang around with the same minimal maintenance schedule.
You just wanted to jump to respond to the "BMW and Audi unreliable" meme, which wasn't what I said.
This board is garbage. Nobody even reads stuff anymore, they just see GM, BMW, or FCA and automatically have to post all their links defending it whether or not it is even relevant to the post they are responding to.
>>15377586
>kek, any proof it's going in the Raptor? ;^)
No because the point of the argument was that there is a V8 ecoboost in development.

ok, any objective arguments?

see>>15377475
>much less service
you have to change the engine a lot sooner in a corvette than in a BMW inline 6, it seems like the one who doesn't read is you
the interval maintenance is the same, the difference is the cost, a BMW is far more expensive to maintain
BMW used to recommend people to change their oil at 15k miles btw
