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 don't your full of it.
I didn't do anything to my 2018 Raptor for 6 years and 100K mi.

Did you look at the R? They are falling closer to $10K over these days. Or get the Ranger Raptor and tune it with the Ford Performance tune. Will be faster than the F150 raptor V6.

Or try a pedal commander. I used to have and S4 and my Gen 2 pedal was squishy comparatively and thought the throttle controller livened it up.

This is a fun thread! In my view, the truck is fast and powerful enough. The only drawback is when it’s in the wrong gear (usually high). As a manual transmission driver, I'm quite attuned to gear shifts. While pressing the gas does prompt downshifts quickly, there's a slight sense of something missing. I assume the Raptor R, with its impressive engine but the same transmission, likely has the same issue. Enjoy the truck!

Yeah the only issue I have with the drivetrain is when you change lanes and need to immediately get into faster moving traffic. In normal mode there can be quite a delay before it really gets up and running. Once its under full steam and the right gear its good enough most of the time. The benefit of having a tune or an R for me would be past 70 where a stock 3.5 becomes pretty un-quick.

I see that you have edited all of your posts to give even less information than before. But now that you have said it's a 2024 3.5 Gen 3, we can at least start a conversation. Unfortunately there are no tunes for a 2024 3.5.

Raptors are ment for high speed desert runs, not red light to red light. Your privous F150 V8 with a Whipple and BDS lift is still an inferior truck compared to the Raptor. 2 different worlds, 2 different uses. That doesn't mean a Raptor can not be fast, just the 2024 ECU has not been able to be cracked yet.

Take a look at the reason you got the Raptor vs another F150. Raptor is more off road capable than an F150, but again they are built for different uses from the factory.

Hi all. Just got my truck a couple weeks ago after coming out of a 2022 f150 with a Whipple supercharger and a 6” bds lift. I really like the truck except for the power. I guess I just need a little reassurance that I now own a much better engineered truck but for some reason I just can’t get past the bruit power. I just didn’t want to spend 20 to 30,000 over sticker for a R
