    Ford Performance upgrades

    A 7.0L DOHC would interesting for sure, but if it was between a NA 5.0 and a 3.5 HO Ecoboost I'd still check off the ecoboost box. I would think 650 plus HP is doable with a tune and turbo upgrade if you're so inclined.

    Ford Performance upgrades

    Squatch , if there was a V8 option and the ecoboost v6, I'd go ecoboost all day everyday.

    Intercooler... does it give you horsepower?

    Totally depends on the difference between stock and aftermarket IC. For example, on a Porsche 930 the OEM IC is small and a big IC like a B&B makes big power especially with bigger turbo and headers. It's all very relative. I suspect the Raptor IC is pretty efficient and very little power to be...

    Installed my Borla S and first impressions

    The only exhaust I would consider is the FoMoCo version. Otherwise, leave it stock. Just my .02 and I've had plenty of aftermarket exhausts over the years.

    Buying A Raptor vs Building An F-150: Is It Worth It?

    I'll go with what FoMoCo says rather than what some tech on an internet board opines.

    Buying A Raptor vs Building An F-150: Is It Worth It?

    There's nothing wrong with modding an F150, but don't try to clone a Raptor, never be worth the time and investment. At the end of the day it's a modded truck with a finite set of buyers if resale is in the cards, mods unless they are done really well usually decrease the value. Besides, to...

    Ideal solution is a 911 and a Raptor, best of both worlds!

    Finally!

    First impressions so far everything works as it should, the Sync3 will take some getting used to but only because it's new to me. The brakes are an issue, definitely need to upgrade the pads and fluid at the very least. Coming off a Porsche Cayenne S , the Raptor's brakes don't even come close...

    Finally!

    Thanks guys! It's loaded with everything except carbon and orange. I was lucky to get the bead lock rims but no dice on the CF. I'll try to add the shifter later. I had the orange accents initially but saw one in person and didn't care for it at all.

    Hardwiring a radar detector

    I never cared for the excessive false alarms with the V1, some of it can be programmed out but it still false alarms far more than a Escort. Having been the victim of a smash and grab, I would never leave a radar detector mounted in plain view. I have a K40 professionally installed in my...

    Crunch time: Gotta decide...

    [/COLOR] Really??? The modern "Shelby's" are lagging far, far behind original Shelbys. Furthermore, modern Shelby's are not investment grade cars, in his last years Carroll Shelby was slapping his name on a lot of things. Do your homework on this one Squatch, the last collectable Shelby was...

    Crunch time: Gotta decide...

    Sounds like you should have thought about this when you ordered the Raptor. Sometimes it's far easier to plan on trading in a car than actually doing it when the time comes. Having said that, I would get the Raptor. Can you do both? That's the best of both worlds.

    Let's talk finances

    My Raptor is going to be a toy, I like to pay cash for toys or I don't buy , just can't stand having consumer debt. Everyone is different, if I was going to daily drive it with no intention of keeping leasing is the way to go, if keeping for the long haul finance at the lowest rate and shortest...

    Don't get all butthurt

    Not unlike many other manufacturers these days, everything gets sourced from the. cheapest possible supplier. Fwiw I owned a '08 Cayenne GTS, great problem free SUV, traded in on a '14 Cayenne S, what a difference. The '14 has been in the shop so many times I lost count , not minor issues ( a/c...
