[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 15647136, member: 68944"] Excited for the 2018 twin turbo option. I'm getting that everything posted here is football spike. (I'm completely mocking the person that said something similar. Hate me because I really am an ass.) This idea that a pd blower will not work stems from the na cars crank having issues in a pd application. This car will likely have engineering to address the stress, be it crank improvements or balancing tweaks. The pd blower makes the most sense. The Germans are adopting to Soros backed fuel requirements. They'd probably much prefer to build simple sc engines. The turbo motor will inherently be more worrisome from a durability standpoint. If you take the time to thoroughly engineer and protect the long term efficiency of a turbo engine, you will have been able to build a comparably safe and dependable sc mill for far less cost. It's physics. There is more air and exhaust being manipulated in a turbo system, especially a twin system. That requires thoughtful engineering in many areas. A blown application is simply easier to produce, and today's twin screws are very efficient in optimal ranges. Older m112's didn't have enough capacity, but hotrodders beat the hell out of them anyways for extra power. The honest truth is heat sink isn't near as bad on a stock pulley car as it is on a modified car, especially with under driven pulleys etc. Ford may well go turbo in the next generation as competition drives the needle there, but at this time, it's obvious why Ford would go PD voodoo. They have the know how on both. It would be dumb to dump the voodoo as a single 3 year engine. The boss 302 mill was dropped because it was a short term escapade. The voodoo has 5-7+ year potential, and we are only at year 3. [/QUOTE]
