2018 Raptor Had upgraded everything including Garrett Turbos. I took to new shop Redline Performance in Bridgeport CT. I drove truck and dropped key Fob to shop Manager myself. Every gauge and sound normal. I was called 3 days later and told lies shop blew motor.
Do not use redline performance as they lie. They are not honest. They tried to charge for work? Really upsetting.

My truck has New Transmission 1k miles 3 year warranty from Ford. Every upgrade from bushings to exhaust, suspension , brakes , turbos Etc , Etc . Radar / laser Custom installed , expensive Stereo over 10k in speakers Amps. Rigid, Baja lights .

I have estimate from Livernois motor in Michigan between 30-40 K

I am looking at Mountune Long Block 14. K plus install from my dealership as well for around 21k

Or Ford OEM 20k plus. I need advice this is truck I plan to keep.

I’m looking for advice so this gets done right has a great strong motor is a reliable truck again that will have 850 HP Plus and 600 plus at wheels.
