2017 Ford Raptor tune dealer soon

[terryweathers]

Your modded truck beats your stock truck and it's embarrassing?

Really?

That's a pretty ridiculous comparison to me.

2015 is 365hp & 420tq stock only mod was a tune estimated at 50HP which would net ball park 415/470 ish.

Sure thought the 17 with 450 / 510, 10 speed, & 4:10 gears would out run it out of the box. It will be badass with a tune but not so much yet.

The XTL is 1000 lbs. lighter and running 31.6' tall tires. Plus I'm pretty sure you're running the 3:73 rear which is not a big difference to the 4:10

Put a 1000 lbs. in the XTL and run 35" tires and see what will happen.

Sounds good!

GOOD NEWS!! I called FP this am 12/16/2016 and was informed that they are working on a tune that can be bought/installed by dealer for the 2017 Raptor. The rep said "the tune will be available very soon, not later."

How do I get information on this? What is it called if I called my Ford Dealer?

Thank you,

Scott

Why not get a pedal commander and boostmax instead?

Aww come on man...

I think his point is that a tune on a regular ecoboost can outrun a raptor with 450 ponies from the factory so imagine what the raptor will do with a tune....

But... why wait? The JMS boostmax that I purchased turned my raptor into a fire breathing dragon. AFE scorcher will do the same thing.

There are some exhaust options already and a drop in filter is 50 bucks.

At this point in time it's doable to get her over 500 horsepower and over 550lb ft of torque.

If you want 600 horsepower I think it's going to take some work.

Just my thoughts

I'm sorry I just don't get it, that these pedal ramp up kits add HP.
All it's doing is telling the PCM that when you step on the pedal 10℅ it will tell the PCM it's at 12, 15, or even 20℅ depending on the setting you choose.
Will your truck feel snappier, yes. But add HP. I would need independent dyno results.

Don't misunderstand me, the Raptor needs the pedal boost Ford, Jeep, and Dodge dummy up the throttle response badly.

Changing the air filter without a Tune, same thing, truck may feel better but HP, maybe????
Don't forget it's completely controlled by the PCM.

Again it's all about weight and tire size.

Ford tune doesn't risk the warranty.
