    Reportedly the Mustang Ecoboost (4 cyl turbo) does 0-60 in 4.5 despite weighing as much as 3800lbs.

    I have the 2.7 EB in an F150, and it kicks ass like a V8. How long will it last is the question?

    Yes. Unless you're performing your own repairs a turbo failure replacement is significant beyond warranty.

    I’m not sure that is accurate regarding the Mustang 4 banger. I parked next to a guy at a car show who owned one and had even done a couple of little performance mods and he said the best he could do was 5.9 in the 0-60. I don’t think he’d have a chance against my supercharged SXT Plus.

    Looks like the 2024 Exo boost Mustang is a lot faster than the one the guy had at the car show I was at. His was a 2020, or possibly a 2019. The guy also weighed about 300 pounds which could have affected his time.
