someone has a thread about the first turbo´d 2011 mustang gt.
this is what i posted in that thread:
____________________________________
fwiw, i currently have a 2008 335 (twin turbo)... the car´s a beauty and it is fast but:
i do not like the heat that is a natural byproduct generated by the turbos.
i thought the mustang crowd was more into superchargers?
my limited FI knowledge tells me that although a supercharger is LESS efficient than a turbo(s), it also produces little or no heat correct?
is that the reason that most mustang FIs are supercharged versus turbo(s) ??
_______________________________________
can some of you real motorheads out there discuss the pros and cons of supercharging versus turbo(s) for the new 5.0 mustang ??
........for me, power and engine longevity are my major concerns.
thanks
