There's also video of a tune only 2.7 running mid 12's. A lot more can be squeezed out of the 3.5 than the 2.7. A supercharged Coyote will still beat a tuned 3.5, but not respectably. Also, were talking $7k to make the 5.0 fast enough to beat a 3.5 with $700 in it.

It also needs 650 hp. To do it.

As time goes buy guys are going to do "absolutely crazy" things to these to get them to 1000 hp go faster and they will disintegrate some in the process. The latest 2018 will probably show itself well in that absolute meaning. Now Ford needs to build more and lighter RCSB's to fill that need. When I drove the 2.7L RCSB 4X4 sport I realized just how fast one can go with 91 octane. I couldn't convince myself to buy it though. Too many long mile trips with 4 person, 1 dog and vacation weekend stuff in the back heading for a lake. Would get one if I could convince the Lil Woman we need a Bronco if they do the 2.7L turbo's. I doubt the 5L will find its way to the Bronco for some time ! A "absolutely crazy" will probably put one in for it to happen. LOL

Think Roush will offer up a factory warranty kit for the 2018 ?
