    GEN 2 She Fits in My Garage!! Barely...

    i couldn't agree more!!! we built a few years ago, standard garage depth was 20', i would have wanted at least 26 deep and extra wide on each side for storage/ tool bench area. only options they even offered were a 2' or 4' extension. so we compromised on the third car add on and a 2'...

    Orange accent question

    i personally would pick one or the other, unless you realllllly want both the orange seats/ stitching, plus carbon fiber shifter/ trim pieces.... for the price its kinda like you're paying more for what you are really getting in upgrades. I have just the orange accent package and love it in...

    Switzer Performance For GEN2 Raptor

    I remember from looking at there different GTR builds, that they do different stages, that would more than likely go from very street-able/ daily driver, up to ultimate drag strip/race tune. I would bet whatever they come up with, it'll be of the highest quality. They posted a pic on their...

    Kooks high flow GREEN catted down pipes installed!!

    Subscribed- Also interested in this, would like to keep from check engine lights coming on, as this'll cause issues for me down the line, the state still does E-checks where i live to renew plates. Plus would hate to give Ford any ammo to cause difficulties with warranty work in the future.

    '17 AG SCREW Avail w/ CF & Beadlocks - Murfreesboro, TN.

    I was fortunate enough to talk the wife into not killing me over buying the Raptor, with our first little one due in NOV. I traded my 13' Chevy Avalanche in for a SCREW, took her to see one at the dealership that someone had ordered in, she actually loves the new truck with the larger cab...

    GEN 2 Anyone using BOV on 2017 ford raptor

    I've seen a few different units so far. ADD and Full Race which look pretty similar, Whipple. Which all theee look like remounts behind the front grill. aFe has one coming out that looks like it's going to mount in the factory location.

    GEN 2 BOV Purchase

    not completely sure, might be something with the mounting bracket that comes with it, or even the piece of wiring you have to piggy back into the factory electronic BOV harness. Everything I've researched has led me to the conclusion to wait for this new one if you plan to use it on a factory...

    Roush Intake hot off the press

    install was a breeze, as expected. Not sure if any HP/TQ improvements. But the Improved sound is definately there. A nice improvement to a "Growl-ish" and turbo spool noise. Tried to take a video of before/ after, did not turn out well with the sound quality. If $400 is worth it for you for...

    Roush Intake hot off the press

    yeah, i saw that in the earlier posts. I've seen multiple other places that say to just 'remove them' with any type of CAI install. They always seem to refer to them as a 'silencer' or something of the likes. My guess is it might be necessary for their CARB rating or the likes. I remember...

    Roush Intake hot off the press

    Mine should be here today, took air silencer rings out a few days ago, a little more intake noise noticed on heavy throttle with that alone. Also did the vent to atmosphere 5 min mod on the stock blow off valve, liking the 'wooosh' sound!

    Bed Cargo Divider

    mine came with it also, (bought one that the dealer had ordered for someone else then reordered w/o the beadlocks so it would get built sooner than later) but i as well am surprised by how strong/nice it is thus far. i have yet to haul very heavy, like construction loads with it in use yet...

    GEN 2 Ceramic Pro 9H

    I'm deabating about getting a ceramic coat and 'paint repair' done by a local detailer. Guy works on alot of high end stuff, porche, ferrari, AMGs, etc etc. Pics of his work look good, he quoted around $380 for 1 yr coat, 4xx-500 for 2 yr, and in the 6xx for a 5 yr coat. sounds much cheaper...
