That's awesome! I wonder if you were to crank your speakers as high as they would go, would you break glass?? That turbo was deafeningly high-pitched!!!

The Mustang and Explorer V6 (not I6) is known as the SOHC-640... it's a classic "Cologne" design that dates back many decades in Ford history... typically OHV but these ones are SOHC.

I have no idea what engine that is in the movie, though, but I doubt it's the same one used in the current V6 Mustang and Explorer.

hmm, my mistake for some reason I thought the base mustang and explorer engines were I configurations.
