fingers crossed as well on TT V8 5.0. However someone would have been onto this already. It will just be a 3.5L Eco V6 with screws turned to it.

Or how about the 5.2 with 500HP/500TQ? Wishful thinking I am afraid.

It's a 500 HP, 500 lb/ft Ecoboost with Ford approved tuning, available to all Ecoboost owners for $99.99, with free installation.

I'd think the 5.0 would be a single turbo application. I suspect it's either a tuning package or a replacement for the Raptor.

How do we know this just isn't so they can sell t-shirts or something with "Ecobeast" on it?



(kidding)



I really hope Ford is continuing to advance their TT engines. They've hopefully wanted to do a V8 all along and just wanted to get their feet wet with the V6s.
