1.6 or 2.0?

The Ecoboost engines are something. The torque of idle is amazing!

However, it's ECO or BOOST. If you drive lightly and stay out of the boost, you'll get great mileage. If you use the boost, you won't get much eco. Ford has them programmed to run very rich and they'll pull timing quick to avoid detonation.
