EBOV VTA done right

[smurfslayer]

Well, you proved your stupidity and lack of cognitive thinking.
FYI - This side of the intercooler that gets drilled is under pressure, NOT vacuum genius.

but you didn’t answer any questions. and come on, you can do better than ‘stupidity’ and ‘lack of cognitive thinking’. Seriously, if this is all you can do, my FRF brothers and sisters will think less of me.

What’s the matter, cat got your fingertips?

so, you’re doing a water crossing, and since you have positive pressure, no problem right? Until you stall. then what?

But let’s get back to it, shall we?

So, why do you continue to troll the Gen 2 subforums with what seems to be a pretty blatant attempt to convince someone to lose the warranty on their new trucks? BTW - you have yet to address this point.

1: Gen 2 owners do not care about your opinion on drilling the charge air cooler on ecoboost engines. Read it again. Now, read it again. Repeat as needed until you actually understand.

2) The 2017-2018 trucks are not suffering from this affliction, whether you want to admit it or not. No amount of trolling is going to work.

3) Your preferred narrative will not prevail. Read this again.

4) Gen 2 owners do not care about your opinion on drilling the charge air cooler on ecoboost engines.

5) You have gone back on your statements no less than half a dozen times in this thread. I’ve done my best to illustrate them, because I know you’re suffering from multiple personality disorder and affects not only how you type, but what you type. But I want to be sure that I am on the correct side of this
- you saying I am a smart guy actually hurts my FRF cred. So, I need you to be clear that I am dumb as a box of rocks, narrow and closed minded, unwilling to accept your ... opinions and so on. so please clarify what your opinion of my level of intelligence is.

6) if your argument / opinion had merit, you would see people jumping up and down on your side and blasting away at me. Your argument lacks merit - see points 1-5. If your argument, point - what is your point by the way? Nevermind - if it had any merit whatsoever, the opinion would stand by itself.

here are some examples
Raptor 3.5TT is more powerful than the previous 6.2L V8. This fact stands on its own.

Raptor 3.5TT is more powerful than standard F150 3.5TT. This fact stands on its own merit as well.

6.2L Raptor makes a great audio soundtrack. Not as good as the GT350, but pretty good. This fact stands on its own merit ( sure some will take offense at a Mustang sounding better but, if you heard them at Raptor Assault, you would agree ).

The F150 Raptor is the preeminent COTS, production off road vehicle. Ford sells every one of them and then some. The demand for the Raptor is as never before, as with every previous year of Raptor. Again, this stands on its own


In stark contrast to the aforementioned facts that stand on their own merit, your assertion that owners of Gen 2 Raptors should drill a hole in the charge air cooler to “fix” a “problem” that doesn’t exist in the truck, is argumentum ad absurdum.

7) We just do not care about your opinion on drilling the charge air cooler on ecoboost engines.

8) since you have gone back on numerous assertions, just in this thread, it is hard to keep track of where you stand now. I think we are at - weep hole is not EPA approved, Ford does not acknowledge or sanction, you cannot prove it is only EPA that prevents Ford from sanctioning, you refuse to admit the 2017-2018 trucks don’t have the misfire, but no matter what, you will change your argument in the next post.

9) You are arguing solely for the purpose of arguing and even if I and all the other posters in here acquiesced to your absurd recommendations, you would find something to argue about or nit pick about the Raptor, which you hate.

10) I think we can now safely dispense with the charade. You are sasquatch77, mcnawsty, mod. and sasquatch78. It’s ok to admit it now, I am not bothered by this, neither are the admins or moderators. Last time they messaged me they made it clear that you would not be banned for duplicate registrations. At least do us the courtesy of acknowledging this. I have dealt with you fairly, and addressed your points. I have treated you with respect, and still you argue this pointless jihad. admit you are sasquatch77 and all the rest of your aliases here.

11) Did I forget to mention that Gen 2 owners do not care about your opinion on drilling the charge air cooler on ecoboost engines? I think I did.

12) I am puzzled why you want me to interrogate my mechanic at the Ford dealer who does my Raptor service on drilled CAC issues. Why would I do this, I asked, he answered. End of story on this ( probably not the best choice of phrases, but it is ) What about this do you find hard to understand.

13) H#ll, you won’t read past 1.

Historical perspective since Smurf would not admit that the intercooler can build water.

Ha Smurf!!! Do you remember saying this was never an issue on the ecoboost? You refused to do your homework. This is the history lesson you need before you arrogantly say no to everything. Give the thought a chance.

The ecoboost weep hole is great protection to avoid intercooler water induced engine misfires. If you have a misfire after that, you know it truly needed plugs, boots, and/or coil packs. With no warranty denials ever recorded, this 1/16" weep hole is the safest, free modification you can do to your ecoboost.

Actually it looks like it has a robot set up to respond here as the response are starting to sound like gibberish.

 

[MGD]

Smurf - this will affect your truck at some point. You can keep your head in your ass and not think it through, but you really need to research and understand the topic. What do you have to say for the rest of the ecoboost world that has drilled the intercooler to prevent the inevitable water from passing through? Are you calling the majority stupid? They actually have ecoboosts with no more problems though. How do you explain that? Karma will get you and your ecoboost will leave you stranded at some point - it's inevitable. Ford won't help you with this.... The owners become the "engineers" and figure out how to make the ecoboost work.
