I agree with you Ben. I too like the kid. He tells it like it is.
Ford designs a really nice intercooler for this engine and then block 1/4 of it off. Then decide that was not enough so they block half of it off. WTH? Really? Talk about Mickey Mouse! And then Ford did not come up with a permanent fix for the chain issue until mid of this year. :S And then they come up with a carbon fix and find out it takes the turbo's out. Talk about OOPS!
I would bet it was not the engineering staff that wanted this. I would put money it was the bean counters. :M
I have a love/hate relationship with this engine. I love turbo's and I really like the idea of this engine. But the problems just turn me off and the expense terrifies me!
