    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    I've been contemplating the best way to address this without throwing anyone under the bus or airing out dirty laundry. The main reason TMX and us are not working together on this anymore is the person that was with TMX that we were dealing directly with (and whom owned the Raptor we were...

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    So far we've only found one..... And we even tried one of the tried and true "Raptor Tuning Guru's" and all the same result. Fluctuating (surging) throttle. YES!!! I fly out on the 31st to get a truck from Canada! I'll be driving it back here, and we're going to start on the install...

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    Hey SilentShooter, I'm really sorry, I thought I had responded to that already. I got a message from you and HeloA&P on the same day and I thought I responded to both of you, but apparently I only replied to him. Had I known I would have more prompt, as I really need to get one of these in...

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    Right now we are just working on getting a Raptor in here locally, so we can once and for all remedy the tuning aspect of the kit. I don't think it's fair to offer the kit without a tune if there's only 1 tuner in the country that we know of that can provide a decent tune for this application...

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    We'll probably need it for more than 11 days, but if you're willing to drop it off while you're out here.....? CK

    Are you down in Miami now? That would work perfect! I want both extremes as far as elevation. CK

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    I know guys, and I'm really sorry for the delay. We just want to make sure everything is on point and working correctly. I don't want to prematurely release a kit that we're going to have warranty issues with. I believe Danny is in the final stages of putting his truck back together, and we...

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    We're getting really close to completion here! It's just a bit time consuming since Danny is all the way down in TX and we're up here in CO. So the processes of test fitment take a bit longer. Plus we're trying to address ALL of the concerns in one shot, and creating new parts takes a bit...

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    When we set out on this journey it was expressed the importance to have flow matching and a useable offset table that was very precise since these ECU's are so picky. So we opted for ID's, even though my main distributor is FIC. When FIC got wind of this he pitched me on his, and this is...

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    Most of our similar kits we offer 60lbs with the option for 80's or 96's. But because of the complexity of these, the tuning, etc. we opted for one option....BIG. The 1000's will still run 91 pump and idle fine, yet it gives us the ability to go for BIG #'s or run E85, or do really what ever...

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    HPT has released some for the newer Fords, but not the 6.2L yet. I have it on good authority that they're working on it and will be releasing it soon. This will give more people access, but not necessarily the ability. These trucks aren't as simple as a VE map and MAF Trans table that we're...

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    Let me clarify this on a couple fronts. First and foremost TMX has played a big roll in this kit, it's design, and it's production. They have a lot invested into it as do we (especially patience!). So it's only right that they get ROI for what they've got into it. Because of this TMX will...

    UPP Twin Turbo Raptor

    Updates Hey guys, just wanted to stop in for an update session. I know a lot of you are anticipating this kit, and believe me, we are working on it! But before we fully release it, we want to make sure everything is right, and everything is "Raptor Tuff". It has fully been brought to my...

    Flipping Exhaust Manifolds - think turbos

    It won't fit.....we looked into this.... The clearance between the frame and the engine is just too close.

    The engine is quite a big girl, but in reality the Vette's that we normally play with are also 6.2L and don't have quite this big of a foot print. It just seems wide and bulky (on the outside) but the engine seems to take up just about every square inch between the frame rails! Maybe it's just...

    LOL....yea...they are..... I would say off all of our kits, this is one that probably needs to be done by a professional shop with a lift. I am truly amazed for as HUGE of a truck this is, how small the room to work with is. CK

    It's been in the works for a while, and we've been slaving away at this. The reality is there really isn't a whole lot of room in these things, especially for as big as they are. And to make matters worse, nothing is centered. So one side has less clearance than the other. We've just been...

    We've got a really special project going right now, and I'm not allowed to talk about it! LOL But I will offer up a sneak peak.....

    Maximum Boost- book by Corkey Bell - amazing book w/lots of great info! You can't look at it as Turbo, SC, Engine....look at it as 3 pumps. That's all they are. Now putting a SC on an engine creates a restriction for the SC right? That's why the pressure backs up and creates boost. Same...

    Twin Turbo Ford Raptor is HERE!!!

    ^ THIS Another way to think of it is: an engine = pump, supercharger = bigger pump, turbo = biggest pump. Now if you put a tiny Eaton M90 on a Merlin Big block, it doesn't really matter how fast you spin it, it just won't feed enough air to even allow the engine to breath. So the...

    Twin Turbo Ford Raptor is HERE!!!

    Yea, I crusied through the "we smashed them" thread, unreal how some of them looked, completely folded like a taco! And that's not 14ga steel either. I remember it being pretty beefy and heavy! ^This! We tried it on an application, makes less power with the SC +TT than just the TT alone...

    Twin Turbo Ford Raptor is HERE!!!

    To me there is a BIG difference between "Off-Road" and "Extreme Off-Road". It appears that most on this site are "Extreme". When developing this kit I had no idea that so many of you jumped these things, nor that it was even possible to damage the skid shield. I am more than game for this...

    UPP's Turbos for Tots - It's time to give back this holiday season!

    After an incredible year here at UPP, we decided it's time to give back. So for this holiday season (now till Dec 20th) we're donating $500 for every turbo kit we sell to the Toys for Tots campaign! And you get the tax credit for it! So not only do we get to help out the little ones with...
