Coyote Engine Underrated
Well this is interesting....Apparently the Coyote 5.0 was underrated by Ford. I wonder was this Ford thinking the insurance companies were going to get involved, like they did in the late 60's? Anyway check this out, and if anyone here has had the chance to dyno their '11 or '12 Coyote, let us know....

I can believe it. I've seen a number of dyno vids of stock GT's putting down anywhere from 370-390rwhp. Ford has been known for it, the 03/04 SVT Cobras were supposedly underrated as well @390hp. I also remember watching a video of a stock Boss 429 that Ford rated @375hp on an engine dyno make almost 500hp and 600ld/ft.

Yeah, I knew they were known for doing that a lot back in the 60's, but I didn't really think it was that common these days. One thing I do know is that my '12 is much better on gas than the '10 was, and quite a lot more noticeable power, so I'm a huge fan of the Coyote!

^^^I guess so re: hp difference as you now have 100 more to start lol. Oh no dyno for me as it sounds like they are going to blow up the motor when they dyno a car. My gas pedal has not been more than half way depressed so far lol
