So I’m trying to figure out if the power curve on the 2.7 is linear. As I’m thinking a linear power curve is what’s desired in off road conditions. Also how it compares to the coyote. Advantage/disadvantage?

I cant say that i have much experience with these modern engines. The newest car ive ever had was my 96 bronco. But honestly the ford modular engines are so big i dont want to deal with one in anything smaller than a full size truck since even then they make a cramped engine bay. The more compact 2.7 is fine by me considering they can push close to 500hp with minor mods. So can a coyote but will likely cost more as an option so no big deal. The one thing i do know about coyotes is that they are not known for their torque. If we ever get a v8 in the bronco I would hope for a aluminum godzilla as the last internal combustion engine before we switch to electric.

Something is wrong with those Ecoboost graphs... Look at the crossover.

Crosses over at ~5252, what am I missing?
Except it doesn't, it's crossing over at ~4600. I think their rpm scaling is off.

So it looks like the 2.7 and 3.5 are more sooted for low end torque. When compared to the coyote. Now the coyote was built for other benefits. But given the option between the two, you might think the 2.7 was the better option. But before I could conclude this, I’d also want to know about its longevity, cost of owner ship, maintenance difference, how long those turbos last, difficulty rebuilding them or replacement, where and Tare on engine from the turbos.

I’m still in the camp of the v8, only because of the unfamiliarity with turbos. More learning to be done.

We really shouldn't even be comparing the 2. There is a 0% chance the Coyote will be offered in the Bronco. It's a 90* V-8 with dual overhead cams. The heads are pretty massive and the engine itself is wide. It's not fitting in the ranger platform (modified or not). The Ecoboost V6's are 60* V and are more compact. If Ford announces the Coyote as an engine option, I'll eat a bat from Wuhan.

The 2.7 is stout. We would be lucky to get it. It out performs what is currently offered in the Bronco competitors by a large margin.

I’m hoping for the 2.7 as well. Well built engine from what I read back when it came out. Stout and economical, with good power. Fords turbos have been quite reliable over the past several years, ecoboost-wise. The 3.5 has been out for some time, in all kinds of applications. Oil-fed, water-jacketed, and plenty of torque at different altitudes.
These engines have been out long enough to be considered proven to me, with many, many miles on them. Easy (relatively) to tune too. They haven’t been perfect, but I’d go with the 2.7 in a heart-beat. 2.3 has been good as well, but I’m really hoping for a 2.7 option in a lower-trim Bronco. Please, Ford?

Also, are we getting the aluminum block 2.7 TT or the iron block?

Which is one of the reasons I'm still hoping for the 3.0 in the high performance Bronco. Aluminum block and more power

Did some searching and it looks like they're 2 piece cgi and aluminum, unless this graphic is wrong?
