Not sure about the eco name either, I have picked up that will deliver
600hp to the ground through a 7 speed manual and the engine weighs 410 lbs.
A stock Cleveland weighs 550 lbs by comparison. Of course, there are other
ways to lose 140 pounds, dump the copilot and all the crap in the trunks.
I do like way it sounds, but not better than how mine sounds.
Regardless, over a stock Pantera, it would deliver 2.5 times more power to
the ground and be 140 lbs lighter.

What makes it "eco"?A I see that the turbo is optional, so in

aspirated form is there some other "boost"?
I'm not making fun of the work ecoboost.A I'm trying to understand
the
name.
A Pantera with a high pressure turbo on a V6 would be interesting.A
I have
often considered doing a 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo.A If you boost it
enough,
you can approach 1,000HP.A I would never do that, but I would boost
it to
600HP if I could.
