Dyno
Maximum HP: 321rwhp (364hp crank or 79.2hp/liter) @ 6100rpm
Maximum TQ: 333rwtq (374lbft crank or 81.4lbft/liter) @ 4400rpm
The result was a solid 50rwhp & 44rwtq (53hp & 46lbft crank) gain over stock from simple external bolt-on performance parts plus a custom tune costing a mere $1300.
Maximum HP/TQ outputs match those of a stock Gen 1 F-150 Coyote 5.0L V8 engine but were achieved from 350cc less cylinder displacement and at a fraction of the cost of a Coyote swap. Not bad for a "little" 4.6 that's still equipped with the original stock cylinder heads/camshafts/intake manifold! Even the high-flow cats remain in the stock location in order to comply with tough emissions regulations, and the engine is tuned to run on the cheapest grade of gasoline available in Europe (95 RON octane).
Thanks to a fully functional variable cam timing system, at least 270rwtq (81% of maximum) is available over a wide 1400-6200rpm range. Consequently performance is strong all the way from off-idle right up to the 6500rpm rev limiter. Indeed it's possible to make rapid progress on many public roads using only 3rd gear (effective speed range 17-109mph)!
Underhood Appearance
Redline Tuning hood struts
CPC radiator cover extensions (used)
BBK intake manifold plenum cover
VMS Racing chrome strut tower caps & nuts
DIY 8" shorty antenna
These CPC radiator cover extensions clean up the look at the front of the engine bay. Makes you wonder why Ford didn't fit them from the factory in the first place.
Note that I also installed a pair of Redline Tuning hood struts. Another item that Ford could have fitted in the first place!
Front Fender Decals
These aftermarket decals leave unsuspecting bystanders in no doubt about the muscle lurking under the hood! A torquey, naturally-aspirated V8 engine with a razor sharp throttle response and a wide powerband makes the driving experience very enjoyable in a car weighing less than 3500lb. It also permits a tall 5th gear (32.4mph/1000rpm) for impressive highway fuel economy (27-28mpg US) whilst maintaining strong acceleration for quick overtaking manoeuvres.
