#'s look good but something about hearing 4cyl noises coming from a mustang is just messed up, Gt’s may of never been the fastest things out but they have always sounded the best. - - - Updated - - - And this just baffles me … “Mustang 2.3-liter EcoBoost I-4: 310 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque” If it was a honda it would make 1/2 of that torque. ---

I think a lot of that has to do with the type of turbos that people choose in the aftermarket an then throw on NA blocks. ---
