Originally posted by fastcougar: hmmm ... 1 full liter more of displacement and all this "technology" and all they can squeeze out of it more than a 2.5L SVT engine is 45hp (205 vs. 250)? That is weak! The only saving grace in this example is the torque, but that is definitely a byproduct of the displacement boost and nothing to do with the "technology".
SVT 2.5L = 200HP, not 205HP. 
There's also a lot of untapped power with this motor, and a lot of potential. Ford specifically made this motor with a possible forced induction in mind. Will you think the same if in 3 years they come out with a 350HP option?
