Find something better to compare it to, like a EA888 or something.
Ya the last Ecoboost was an incoherent mess.

The new one is comparable in drivability Mk7.5 Golf GTI/R and A5.
In fact, I think it has less torque delay than the Golf R calibration.

It's stronger down low and up top but it should be when the 2.3L is rated for 310/350lbft.
Waiting on the factory warrantied Ford Performance ECU/TCU tune ...but the last gen gained 100HP at peak with a cold air intake
