"There’s also a new set of turbos with a lighter supper alloy turbine wheel whose lower rotational inertia should improve transient response time, Ford says." Meaning they're planning to do something about that god awful lag. |

Nice. Love the current 3.5l If I wanted a truck payment I'd get a new 150 ecoboost and sell the 7.3. |

In a raptor, they are going to have to make it sound nasty in order to maintain a good percentage of their buyers. I mean, there isn't anything that compares to the sound of a nice v8, but I have heard some V6's that rumble pretty good. If it's prius quite - I think a lot of folks will be turned off. |

I watched a documentary about the Mustang a couple weeks ago and there was a portion on how they designed the 2016 exhaust to still rumble like it had a V8 even if you buy one with the 2.0L turbo charged engine. It was really interesting and the Ford engineers went through hundreds of designs to make it work, so I would hope they would do the same to the Raptor. It sounded great. |

Eye candy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUs5KZ2uMgs Can't get a feel for the sound, but what I hear is a little disappointing. |
