If Ford makes this turbo 6, the impressiveness of Camaro's 300hp V6 will disappear, quickly. If they priced them between the base V6 and GT, Ford would sell the hell out of them.

A model like this (factory turbo making 335-345hp) would be a cinch to put over 400hp with simple tuning and minor bolt-ons. Hell, I'd bet this car would outdo the new GT in modibility. I'm all for it. I'm tired of all the hoopin and hollerin from the GM guys about how they're gonna be beating up GT's in their V6 Camaros. It's kind of rediculous.

i want 500 hp

We already have 500 hp. The GT500. Cheapest 500hp production car in the world.

radical new idea here: 400 HP V6..... 500 HP V8..... and a whopping 600 HP SC V8
that should be the new Mustang line up

maybe we'd finally be pushing more hp than Camaro

If our cars stayed around the weight they are now...........yea, it wouldn't be pretty.

Camaros have always had more power than the mustang. And the mustang has always been lighter, and smaller displacement than the camaro. It's a fact of life. Camaros push 4000 pounds, where the mustang is a solid 3500. In the 80's it was 2800lbs and 200hp vs 3100lbs and 230hp.

But that HP/Weight thing always seems to balance out so the camaro and the mustang are well matched. Plus, the mustang is cheaper than the camaro, too.

Interesting quote I found on Autoblog about the V6 Ecoboost:

"Brett Hinds, Ford's advanced engine design manager, said the 3.5L V6 Ecoboost slated for F-150 duty in 2010 would produce significantly more than 340 hp and 340 lb-ft..."

I couldn't really see Ford allowing the EcoBoost to surpass the 5.0 V8 tho...

Maybe that means we actually ARE getting around 400 hp for the new V8. That would be sweet.
