Ecoboost Raptor "TT-REX"

[M64D RAPTOR]

Good Job man. Looks nice. Black out those mirror reflectors please.

Looks good. The ecoboost badge is gonna create some interesting questions from random people.

Nows a perfect opportunity to test an Ecoboost vs 6.2 straight up. Weights should be damn near identical

Never been a fan of the Raptor want to be's but I must say that one looks damn good. Nice work!

Thanks all. I understand what it's like to buy the real thing and see a copy out there because I bought a 2011 Shelby gt500 new back along and it always bugged me seeing stripes and the like on regular stangs. That being said, I know I'm stepping on toes here and don't claim to be part of the raptor crew and I appreciate the respect from you guys. The badges are fun I brought it to my local ford dealer to schedule an alignment yesterday when I got it out of the shop and I had 6 people taking pictures from the store. It's certainly unique and I'm happy I went through with it. I'd love to run it against a 6.2 I think with the performance parts and the boost cranked up I've got what it takes. And trust me the reflectors are bugging the shit out of me. I also have a carbon skid plate on the way

Nice work, so, just curious, how much did you save building your own vs. buying new Raptor?

Less than zero dollars. However I have boatec fenders and besides that fit 37's and a slew of other aftermarket parts that I would have purchased anyway if I had purchased a raptor. My biggest thing was that I waited for 3 years for an ecoboost option. It didn't come, so I took it upon myself. Granted I don't have that awesome V8 rumble but oh well its got its own thing going on!

I'm digging it, when people do 'conversions' right I don't see any problem with them. I'm not a huge fan of that wheel style but I think the 20's/37's have plenty of meat on them.

Looks awesome, what kind of fuel mileage are you getting?
