[DeTomaso] New Ford GT Twin Turbo V6

They make (made?) a 3.5L V-6 and a 3.5L Twin turbo V-6 with direct
injection. The forced induction version is the Eco Boost. "Horsepower of a
V-8 with the fuel economy of a V-6" hence the "Eco" part. Ford now uses the
"ECO" tag on all its turbo direct injected engines. If it says Eco Boost it
is a turbo.
My Eco Boost MKS gets 20 mpg in around town driving and I am not as timid
with the gas pedal as I could be.
Thanks,
ED...
