Can a twin-turbo V6 beat a V8?
Often, there is little output difference between a V6 and a V8. For example, the Ford F-150’s 5. V8 produces 400 hp and 410 lb-ft of torque. Its 3. V6 generates 400 hp and 500 lb-ft of torque. As for towing, the V6 outshines the V8 in the above example. The 2. V6 engine puts out 444 HP thanks to its twin turbochargers nestled within the V of the cylinder heads. A subsequent electrically powered compressor increases boost pressure at lower engine RPMs to help increase engine responsiveness and improve low speed torque.
