Pentastar to get turbos and Direct Injection
Interesting to say the least...Sounds like Ram may soon have not only a fuel efficient diesel in their line up but also a Turbocharged Pentastar... will this compete Head to Head with the EcoBoost?
Time will tell...
Thanks!

I think it has to compete with the Eco Boost.
I'm confident Chrysler/Dodge can get the Pentastar 3.6 Turbo to match or exceed the 3.5 Ecoboost's HP and torque ratings--if they so choose.
IMO, the real key is whether they can produce better MPG's than the 3.5 Ecoboost while doing so---in the realworld.
The 3.5 Ecoboost promised V6 MPG's. The Pentastar 3.6 Turbo now has a great opportunity to actually deliver.
Yes, time will tell.
