so an engine that makes 360 torques at 5500 rpms pulls better than an engine that makes 420 at 2500 rpms? when you are only at 2000 rpms while doing 70mph. i must be taking crazy pills

not only does the ecoboost make MORE overall torques but its making them at the rpm you will be pulling a load at highway speeds. and the statement about the turbo cutting off at higher speeds is ridiculous. if you know anything about a turbo "which the ecoboost has two if you didnt know" works off the exhaust. so anytime the engine is running the turbo is turning. which means its ON. you may need to look at your spec sheet again because i fear its wrong.
