Thumbs up ECOBOOST Torture Tests

Really sweet videos of the torture tested ecoboost, check it out!

http://thinkfordnow.com/BFTEVideos/

Just a summary:
1. 150,000 miles simulated on a Dyno
2. D55 tons of timber
3. 11300lbs at full throttle for 24 hours on a NASCAR track
4. Head to head towing race with Chevy and Dodge
5. Baja 1000 Enduro
6. Teardown at the end proves that the engine can handle pretty much anything.

Pretty awesome, I thought I'd share.
