Welcome Back to the Ford Taurus SHO! Truly missed for its sleek design and awesome power. This time around the SHO is truly a muscle car to be recognized. With an impressive 365 horsepower @ 5550 rpm along with the AWD to put the 350 lb.-ft of torque to the ground. This beast can still maintain a modest 17 city/25 highway estimated fuel mileage rating from the EPA. The Engine builds all this power from a 3.5 L Twin Turbo Direct Injection system. With 10:1 compression this machine is crisp all the way through the power curve and runs just fine on 91 Octane or better. The transmission is equipped with 6 speed electronically controlled automatic overdrive with paddle activation for easy shifting.

Now that is an awesome new take on the old SHO. I would almost trade my mustang GT for one of these!!
ReplyDeleteare you kidding me? 10:1 compression ratio? I wonder what PSI boost these engines are running. I'm sure if you can get some aftermarket forged pistions to drop the c.r. down to 8.5-9.1:1 and some turbo upgrades....yeah, really put some power down.
ReplyDeletedirect injection enables turbo engines to run higher compression without fear of blowing up why drop the ratio why tear apart a new engine in a 40k car your an idiot
