Different block, bore and stroke... It's a new engine, that share same displacement and the fact that's turbo with a N55.

Meh, none of these turdbros do it for me....I'd rather wait for the 2015 Ford Mustang GT350....500hp+, NA V8, manual tranny. It's gonna have a great chassis, and should be a monster at the track. 3200lbs is the target weight.

Air to water intercooler. I like the aggressive hood look like the E92. Im just hoping the car is smaller overall (but I doubt it is).

True. They haven't had an original wheel design since like 2004
