Oh no, i get it, but i would be prepared to bet that a 3.2l with the same tech applied as that of the 2.0l with say 200kw would have received a different response.
I doubt winding the 2.0l up to max would cut it either, not when it could probably be wound up with a tune anyway.

Theres no doubt the little 2.0l when combined with the 10sp is a good bit of kit and the numbers are on the board that prove it outperforms the ageing 3.2l, so whats the hold up?
The capacity is what im hearing.

Back in the day we lived by the theory that theres no replacement for displacement and despite the Jap turbo 4 banger boys suggesting otherwise we wouldn't have a bar of it, why now that Ford says its ok do we expect people to just accept it.
Whats next, a 1.5lt with 15sp.
