With the ability to control valve timing, it improves engine performance and increases fuel economy. ConsumerReports tested the duo and found the 2.7-liter EcoBoost accelerates to 60 miles per hour in 7.0 seconds, two-tenths quicker than the 3.5-liter EcoBoost. Car And Driver’s SuperCab 2.7-liter EcoBoost did the deed in 5.7 seconds, one-tenth shy of the heavier SuperCrew’s 3.5-liter time.

Away from Ford's proving grounds and on The2.3 EcoBoost is more powerful than the 2.0 EcoBoost, both in terms of peak performance and the overall powerband. The 2.0 EcoBoost makes between 203–250 horsepower and 221–280 lb-ft of torque. In contrast, the 2.3 EcoBoost produces a minimum of 270–350 horsepower and 305–350 lb-ft of torque. The2.7L EcoBoost engine is a mighty performer in a compact package, typically found on mid-size or full-sized Ford pickups and SUVs. The 3.5L EcoBoost engine delivers power and torque on more performance-driven vehicles like the GT, or any F-150 trim for enhanced towing ability (the 3.5L engine is standard on the Limited trim). Ifyou want to reach the 5.0 HP, get the 5.0, probably with the ecoboost it will be harder for that engine to reach that HP level with mods, and the longevity of your engine will have a shorter life than of the 5.0 with minimal mods. 2011 Mustang GT Premium, Brembo, 3.73 & Std. transmission, Steeda Sport springs & KONI STRT. 9vUH.
