StoplightAssassin Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 'Bout damned time Ford. It's rumored to have the 2.7 liter ecoboost V6, which when in the Edge Sport comes with 315hp and 350tq and it's good for a mid 5 second dash to 60. The Fusion is considerably lighter. http://www.autoblog.com/2015/09/02/ford-fusion-st-spied/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I wonder if it will be a transverse set ? It must be a nightmare to replace the rear spark plugs. My GF's v6 2008 Escape talks about pulling the intake manifold to replace them. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it. Engine Build - Click Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05GT Guru Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Quite a few vehicles have hard to reach spark plugs. Many inline engines need the intake manifold partially removed to remove plugs as well since the manifold crosses over the top of the engine.

whitetiger Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 yeah, the fusion ST will be a better replacement for the OB sdn compared to the wrx. If only the current Legacy came with the FA 2.0DIT. The Fusion ST will be better for the fam and still light my pants up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE RZA Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Subaru isn't winning over their enthusiasts anymore that's for certain. If they made the Crosstrek in turbo, I would have bought that over the WRX. Or even just the current impreza hatch in WRX form I would have bought.

whitetiger Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 id do either a XV turbo or a WRX hatch for sure. too bad they didnt bake the 09-14 wrx hatch with a auto trans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE RZA Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I even almost did a XV but I wanted it in Manual, but finding any N/A subaru in manual now is a needle in a haystack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
