    Eco boost raptor?!?

    Fact of the matter is that Ford does not want to be in 2nd place with performance or mpg's. We will just have to see--I for one cannot wait and will rest assured be First SOB in line if they get it right. If not then I will just stay with a 6.2 DI with tune that gets 25% better mpg's and more hp...

    JLT oil separator

    Just a note here for those of you that are motor heads and understand this----use a oil that has a LOW NOACK number. Several good ones out but that just by itself will help to keep the evaporated oil out of the can.

    Shelby raptor troubles

    It is good that someone was kind enough to make a call to bring the issue to the attention of the right people so that damage control could be minimized however, this begs an even bigger issue. Why would one want to pay a premium for a service that is priced accordingly from a company that...

    Shelby raptor troubles

    The Shelby Raptor is the biggest pimped up thing I have ever seen period. Sorry to the OP but it is for Street Queens who want to try and impress people who do not know any better. Shelby is dead and buried and realistically was too old and feeble to do much with his company even before he...

    Ford Certification Requirement for 2015 F-150

    Suspected that something like this would happen given what other mfg's have done but it sure does limit who and how much you have to pay for repair work. Insurance companies will be looking at this as well.. Ford repair shops must be certified to fix aluminum-bodied F-150 | The Detroit News

    2015 F-150 2.7L with 400HP? WTF

    This is from 2010---Ford is putting more into DI but is a few years behind the curve: Why New Ford V-6 and V-8 Engines Don't Have Direct InjectionBy Bengt Halvorson 6 10,589 views A couple of years ago, General Motors introduced a new-generation 3.6-liter direct-injection V-6—beating its...

    2015 F-150 2.7L with 400HP? WTF

    Very nice indeed. Have not looked at the mustang. That is indeed interesting. Kind of like the Audi we have DI and turbo! If Ford would do that combo it would be interesting... Going to have to look at that engine--might just mean that if Ford was to introduce an "new" 5.0 as a DI with a turbo...

    2015 F-150 2.7L with 400HP? WTF

    For Ford no it is not in the cards. They went Turbo---if they change to DI now it will kill the current stuff and really resale of the older stuff. Turbo is what Ford spent all of the $$$$$ in R&D on. They went old school rather than the latest technology and take the chances with software, new...

    Eco boost raptor?!?

    With the new motors for the 15 model sad fact is that the 6.2l with a 5 star tune, exhaust, CAI which does perform nicely from a stop or slow speed is going in the trash can. The turbo is going to be the choice in the Raptor like it or not.. Personally by doing this and the truck will be...

    2015 F-150 2.7L with 400HP? WTF

    Ford bet the farm on turbo. GM went with DI. That is all. This is old news happenned years ago... Both have unique issues---personally the DI motor is the way to go in a truck imho. There is no replacement for displacement.........

    Moroso Air/Oil Separator

    Good Lord people this is not new. I have 2 of the RX catch cans one on the truck the other on the jeep. You will not believe what comes out! A lot of it is water from condensation --think about it! Very little oil. It is best to mount the tank close to the outside wall as far forward as...

    2014 question

    WOW --- the RB's have been coated from Day 1. Yes they will fade and so will the other products. Now for the bad part---being a little older you DO NOT put the products on the RB's to make them "look good" you will slip and bust your old butt! Being that you will just be keeping it for a couple...

    Unimog AMG version! Will wipe out anything on this thread off the road. Not with speed but will go places that would make a billy goat take notice. One of the videos that demos the Unimog in factory configuration (many to choose from) show it pulling a locomotive. Wish Benz would officially...

    Torsen front axle problems ! anyone else ???

    I know that this issue was one of the biggest reasons I did not replace my 2011 with a 2014 Raptor. Had one lined up but I run top perch and 37's with the mods for that. Where I drive and the miles I put on one this would have been a nightmare for me..
