2012 Vesta

[orpco]

I notice in the 2012 Vesta brochure that the MaxxForce engine is rated at 300hp. Does anyone know how the increased horsepower rating was achieved. Is this meaningful since the torque didn't change. Any impact on efficiency?

The MaxxForce 7 engine is fully cabable of ECM programming so that the HP and torque can be dialed in.

Early versions of the MaxxForce 7 only had 1 turbo as well however in 2012 you will find that these engines are equipped with 2.
