[QUOTE="blackvette101, post: 13694536, member: 130072"] Why not what makes you think they won't raise the compression. Why on earth would they add it and not raise the compression that makes no logical sense. On Ford's naturally aspirated cars they run 12:1 CR on 87 octane. mazda has done as high as 13:1 on 87 octane. Hell Ford runs 11:1 CR + 16 PSI of boost on the new Fiesta ST. harder Café standards are coming down they don't need a ton more hp to be competitive another 30-40 hp will do it. How could anybody at Ford possibly think it's a better idea to stroke out a motor that already gets bad MPG instead of adding new technology and making the engine more efficient in every way including gas mileage. They could make the car competitive power wise with just direct injection and the more aggressive tuning and better head flow it provides. That's if they refuse to raise the compression to the same levels the other direct injected cars runs for some unknown highly unlikely reason. It literally makes zero sense. [/QUOTE]
