    Who is - Sasquatch77

    Title says it all. Who is Sasquatch77? This isnt a mean thread. I want to know. Maybe this thread will cause Sasquatch77 to reveal more details instead of just bits and pieces. - He seems to have an inside track to what the future Raptor will carry for engine options - He seems to have a...

    2017 Raptor Boost (PSI) and boost gauge

    Wish I had this problem :) I have an 801A and dont get a gauge because my package doesn't have digital gauges. Has anyone seen a hardware boost gauge install and mounted in a 2017 Raptor yet? I know it happened on older Ecoboost and 2014 Roush modified trucks and even 2015 - 2016 EB. Has...

    Report: 2019 F-150 Raptor To Receive Ford’s New 7.0L DOHC V8 Motor

    Totally agree! I posted this in another thread a few months back. I had a 2014 Raptor. Loved the truck and took it through some serious shit while duck hunting in the winters. But the stock exhaust was nothing extra. Sure didn't rumble or burble like I would have expected. Sounds nothing like a...

    2017 Raptor Boost (PSI) and boost gauge

    So most boosted cars dont get or need a boost gauge, and if something goes wrong with the blower, turbo or piping you get a CEL and that is enough to negate the need for a boost gauge. Lol, ok. I hope they remove the boost gauge from the next GT500, hellcat, GTR and Raptor and we can use a...

    2017 Raptor Boost (PSI) and boost gauge

    This is probably one of the worst comments I have read in a while. I read this months ago when first posted and I think about it now and then. Im the OP and when I noticed my old thread at the top tonight I figured I would chime in. Most cars or trucks that have FI for performance have a...

    Available Tunes

    Five Star should update the homepage of their website for those of us that dont use Facebook and dont have a facebook account. Before the comments about me not being technical enough to use facebook begin please note I am an IT Engineer and The Director of IT Infrastructure for a medium size...

    Corrected the paint and coated 17 over the weekend. And. Umm. Drove it....My thoughts

    Agreed, I made the dealer leave all plastic on my truck and they were not allowed to wash or touch it. I stood there while they did the inspection. I would never let them touch the paint. Old dirty sandy rags, gives me goosebumps thinking about it. My truck had rail dust and it was like old...

    GEN 2 PCM tune process

    Obviously its not yet available, hence my post, asking about prerequisites in order for a tune to become available. Also, how in the hell did HPE turn out a tune in week one of the trucks arrival? I assume he didnt and your money would be tied up with him waiting. Looking forward to...

    GEN 2 PCM tune process

    Hey guys, hopefully I dont get killed for posting this by the guys that like to bash people for asking questions. Sorry if this has been asked before, I couldn't find this exact question in my search. I have seen some references to it in other posts though. I have tuned several of my past...

    What does "Turbo not making charge" message mean?

    Exactly, couldnt have said it better myself. Its worth the pain and money to just do it myself and know for certain it was done right and my ride was respected. I dont scratch my shit up. Yes, I play hard but I take care of my stuff. I literally came up from nothing, raised in the hills of...

    What does "Turbo not making charge" message mean?

    Exactly. I have heard and seen this a few times by Ford on various vehicles. I do my research on issues first, or arrive with TSB in hand when possible. I only go see Ford at this point if its going to cost me more than $300 or more out of pocket to fix, or if I need to be towed and cant fix it...

    New sticky please GEN2 owners pics

    Hey PMR, What is that "Raptor" graphic beside of the hood heat extractor? Did you purchase that from someone specifically? Got a name of the product and a website? That is sick! I wont copy you, but I have something similar in mind.

    New sticky please GEN2 owners pics

    The OEM mats are pretty nice, for OEM. But there is no coverage under the gas pedal and they are still a little bit too small. Nice for OEM but aftermarket offers much better total coverage. I heard the Husky mats also cover the door sill some, which would be great and stop additional damage...

    Rattling over Bumps

    Same here. Driving across my property to reach my brothers a few minutes ago. No music and heard thump thump all the way. Coming from the rear. Likely my hitch. Will take it off on the way home and test. While under my truck the other day spraying with rust prevention I noticed one of the...

    Markup hell?!?! Just me???

    Lol, there I go, getting things wrong. This is a tough crowd. I would move your post and create a new thread on the general section main page. Likely someone will buy it. ---------- Post added at 03:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ---------- I confused Greenwood and...

    Do me a favor, please just run 93 or at least 91 in your new Raptor

    Last post on this topic, I promise (I know, this inst the GT500 site) Here is the sound my car would make on the day of an oil change. This sound would last until about 1000 miles after the oil change, then it would go away and not come back until the oil was changed again. Again, the car by...

    Do me a favor, please just run 93 or at least 91 in your new Raptor

    Thanks brother . Wasn't going to waste my time trying to explain. People on this site are so eager to try and prove someone wrong and call people out. The GT500 calls for Motorcraft 5/50. For those of you that think I am blowing smoke, do some reading. This same site (The GT500 version of the...

    Do me a favor, please just run 93 or at least 91 in your new Raptor

    My tuner displays over 100 PIDs. Spark Retard has nothing to do with boost pressure. I measured timing retard on my 2014 Raptor as well. See picture below. Upper left hand corner. I have been doing this for a while now. Have you looked at the other posts about Gen 2 Knock? The manual says...

    Do me a favor, please just run 93 or at least 91 in your new Raptor

    I will shoot a video of the knock. There are a couple of threads on it and a couple You Tube videos. The knock is low in the engine.

    Do me a favor, please just run 93 or at least 91 in your new Raptor

    This SOB knocks like it is about to have a spun bearing already. I run 93 only, still has a wild ass knock at idle. My GT500 would knock, less than this, but still knock after I changed the oil each time. After 1000 miles it would stop as the oil was broken down. 5/50 caused a knock on several...
