EcoBoost motors in the new 2010's?

Ford is releasing their new line of EcoBoost motors starting with the Lincoln MKR (ford fusion) late this year. Twin turbo 3.5L V6 pushing out 360hp and getting 35+mpg. (also an N/A version pushing 300-310hp)

Any word of the new 2010 Stangs getting an EcoBoost motor?? Maybe a turbo V8 in the ballpark of 400hp and making near 30mpg... how nice would that be,

Well I just read here:

http://media.ford.com/article_displa...ticle_id=27455

on Ford's site that it will be 340 hp and get 2 mpg better than a 4.6, that's straight from Ford. the 360 hp and 35+mpg sounds great, but I don't think we're gonna see that for a while. [&:]
