It will have a direct injection, turbocharged 3.5 liter V6 that will produce more horsepower than the current 4.6 Mustang GTs.

That is all fine and dandy.

But will it still sound as good as a 4.6 V8. [:-]fd

RE: EcoBoost V6!

I just thought of something, and haven't really looked into it to be honest, but how much torque will the ecoboost have? It may have 340 hp, but I fin dit a stretch to also have 320+ lbs of torque, I could be wrong however.

Anyone know?

That v6 will probably be the new GT

Nope, according to this, Ford will keep high performance engines;

Ford had renamed its new Gasoline Direct Injection Turbocharged 3.5 V6 to EcoBoost. The change from the previous name "TwinForce" was made because the marketing team did not want to lead customers on that this is only a "Performance" type engine. They want to stress that this new engine will be able to get better MPG along with the performance of a V8.
