Some companies use turbocharging almost exclusively and have no trouble. Saab's engines (now GM), a large percentage of Audi/VW motors, Volvo, and now BMW. The little 1.8/2.0 Audi/VW turbo five valve per cylinder motor is extremely good and is long lived, I've owned a few.

Americans typically have a sort of bad taste in their mouth from Chysler's experiments with it in the mid-80s. Modern EFI coupled with water cooled turbochargers certainly are a large improvement over dated designs.

Should be an interesting motor, but are they really going to put it in the Mustang? They could have put the old 3.8LSC motor in the Mustang but never did, would have threatened the 5L at the time.
