2003 Mustang Cobra With A Boost - Unstable Compounds - Tech
|
Compound vs. Turbo-Only (TQ)While the top-end power favors the turbo system, the bottom half of the curve is all compound. Compared to the turbo-only setup, the compound system offered an extra 300 lb-ft of torque at 2,500 rpm. That's as much as a normally aspirated Cobra motor! With more than 600 lb-ft of torque at less than 2,500 rpm, the compound system is one serious torque monster. It's doubtful that any street Cobra can hook up over 600 lb-ft in First or even Second gears, but having that tremendous torque production will certainly come in handy on the streets.As indicated in this article, the choice comes down to where you want to optimize your power production-at the bottom or top of the rev range.
