Would be as simple as tuning. Only other thing i can think of is more restrictive exhaust and intake.I wonder what they changed that caused the power drop. Maybe just something in the emissions tuning?

They are going to fatten up the AFR for emissions? LolIf anything its maybe just a couple degrees of timing pulled, fattened up AFR. They are going to re-engineer and re-certify parts for 1 model year then go to a completely new platform.
You think we will get a V8 option in 2023 S650?Particulate filters have arrived, for the "lesser" Coyote motors in Mustangs anyway. We shall see how Ford skirted the issue in the GT500 shortly. PFI may have saved the day for '22.
I still remember Ford ICE enginer Adam Christen telling me some 6 years ago that they were coming. He gave me a very grim look.
Same cat and mouse game, adding long tubes/tune, kiss your warranty goodbye if there is a major engine issue. I could see somebody bolting on earlier S550 cats (with a tune) in hopes of sneaking by their local inspection process - ingenuity is on the way however it'll be done.
We are going to see threads on system errors due to drive cycles, etc. The added heat in order to allow the system to function isn't really a good thing either (witness diesel trucks and their lovely DPF systems).
Note the new cat/exhaust plumbing and sensor (eurogay system for illustration purposes until stateside LBGT version is released)...

Yay. This coupled with no gas lawn equipment sales in California will definitely save the world.
The unforsure out look has made me reconsider getting a 2021/2022 GT500 as i feel maybe the last of the factory supercharged gas engines. That an Ca is comming down hard on the older modified vehicles.I do. Sadly, gas engines are now going to be emasculated like never before as enviro-restrictions now have a stranglehold. My personal outlook is rather bleak. Time to consider retro in a number of aspects.
Ok ill help you. Manufacturers fatten up the AFR to protect your catalytic converters when you are cruising around in closed loop and the rest of the emissions system.They are going to fatten up the AFR for emissions? Lol
