For a street motor the coyote needs to rev to 4500 rpm to make its power, not good on the street, great for track, for example, a race car spends about 85% of its time at 4500 rpm to redline (coyote), a street motor spends about the same time at idle to 4500 (FE), thats where its power is made, its not neccesary thats the coyote is underpowered, its just not the best street engine, thats why first thing everyone does with these engines is to upgrade to a deeper gear, you need it or the engine falls flat untill the rpm kicks in, by the way my FE makes over 600hp and tq, superchargers on the coyote are so popular because it gives you that tq down low where you need it for street driving, track mustang is NA form, again to each is own, ive driven both in a cobra, and in my opinion, no comaprison. Im well aware for $6500 the coyote cant be beat, great power, light package, and smooth, but no comaprison to an fe or windsor in na form.

Yeah, with your open minded opinion I am sure we would have a wonderful conversation. Probably one sided but ,I am sure enlightening. As I said I could have had any engine, cost was not an issue....so tell me more about your 5.0 spf...
