There’s only one number to remember and that’s 4!

There are plenty of trucks out there that are extremely fast and heavy they have supercharged v8’s not a 6 banger.Im so sick of people saying if you want fast buy a car.Everyone that owns a ecoboost Raptor tries to make it faster period and if you say you dont your full of it.
No, they don’t. Some do, some stick to the warranty and still off road the daylights out of it. The truck has way more capability than all but maybe half a dozen members on FRF. Unless you own a trophy truck or are contracted to drive one, the Raptor has way more capability than you will use.

If you don’t like it, sell it. Keep it in mind though - stock, the Rap can do a 14.0 1/4 mile. You can get deep into the 13’s with a tune. Further if you change some hard parts, but the more greedy you get, the more you’re going to compromise the engine and transmission longevity and durability. You cannot easily make the eco compete with a TRX or RR... and have the engine survive. Even then, you still have a 5800 pound brick on off road tires, with adequate brakes.

if the Rap is not fast enough on the street for you, then you probably picked the wrong vehicle. You can try to make it fit your wants, but it sounds like that’s a tall ask so everyone telling you to get a fast car, they’re on to something.

I made my raptor “slower” by putting 37s on it. Thing is it’s an off road truck so it’s actually faster for what it’s for. A raptor will run circles around a lifted f150 off road. It’s not even close to the same level. We aren’t living life a quarter mile at a time here.

Then WHY did you get a v6? I'm content with its stock performance and I run it off road a lot.

I have an eco boost and I haven't found a need to "make it faster".

If you want to win the red light drag race, you bought the wrong truck. If you bought a 2023 / 2024 and didn't do any research on what tune options you had, you're a bigger idiot than I think we all give you credit for.

Then pony up the big bucks for the TRX or R. Lots of people with that kind of disposable cash, or willingness to take on that level of debt…..are driving them right now. They are one trick ponies, however. At least with a fast car you can play around from 100mph + or hit some twisty roads.

I imagine life is hard being as retarded as this troll. He’s fortunate to have any year of Raptor, assuming he actually drives one. Ecoboost is a great power plant, I miss my Raptor every day. Already looking forward to getting back in one.
