Why can a Honda Civic make 100 horsepower per liter but a Ford Mustang can't?

I'm confused by that. The 2011 Mustang should produce 500 horsepower if a Honda Civic can produce 100 horsepower per liter in stock form. Any help here would be appreciated.
RustyNail.. The 2011 Mustang 5.0 only makes 412 horsepower with 5 liters. You can't get more modern than 2011. So no, a modern Mustang does not reach 100 horsepower per liter in stock form.
inboxfull, I'm just wondering why Ford can't do it. That's all. Sure both motors are capable of a lot more with some aftermarket work, tuning, turbos etc, but in stock form Ford hasn't been able to accomplish it.
