So now that we know it has the same intake as a 300 hp Expedition, where do we think they're going to get all this HP from and improve gas mileage 1%? Tuning?

Just a thought. How much does Mike T get out of these engines with an intake and tuning, not really being concerned about fuel mileage and emissions? I may be wrong, but I don't think they're going to change cams, valves, or port the heads.

No engine badge... Weird. And it looks like the wheels are balanced with sticky weights. I hate them...

One way I've read is they have added open-valve injection. Sort of a poor-man's direct injection.
