Emissions regulations went through some major changes for the 22-23 MY for all cars and for bikes it’s euro 5. There is a good 15-20 lost with these newer standards why did you think Chevy had to increase the fuel system pressure and redo the cats for. Also the mustang gt and mach 1 both lost 10hp for 2 model years because of the new carbon traps in the intakeIt's interesting these newer engines will have lower peak torque than gen 3 as well. Wonder if they have harder efficiency limits to meet now. At least the steel oil pan is coming back lmao
so yeah if it wasn’t for the newer emissions, I’d say a 500hp mustang gt would of been possible. And I’ve been saying it for a few years ford is getting really close to the end of the life of the coyote engines. They originally were planned to be in production for 10 years and the lifetime end goal was to try to get to 500hp. Ford will have to either hybrid them or come out with a new platform. Emission regulations are only getting worse
