When I saw the Bronco/Ranger Raptor numbers on the tune I was excited to see what they were doing for the f150 Raptor and was ready to buy the tune as soon as it was released. I could get rid of my pesky Ford points and get some more power. But 16 peak HP and 54lb ft tq for $825 PLUS dealer install cost?

HARD PASS. What an epic failure on Fords part. Making the standard ecoboosts and Bronco/Rangers just as powerful as our heavy trucks is a shame. They should have made our trucks closer to the RHO numbers at minimum. This isnt going to take away from R sales either.

Come on Ford, do the right thing. We all know there is plenty more in these motors which Goose, Livernois, and COBB have proven already.

Wow, those numbers are **** poor. And the fact is not 24 compatible is lame. They better come out with something worthwhile for 24+ models. If the base 3.5 can be bumped to +55HP/100Tq, there should be plenty of room for these. So much for the excitement. I'll send FP an email too. Plus they suck at math apparently
It sounds like Ford can’t crack their own ECUs on the 24+ lol. I don’t see anything to give me confidence Ford Performance will put out anything more worthwhile. My thought is if they could they would.

Tabulated for easy weeping... Ford appear to be making sure the F-150 Raptor numbers don't encroach too closely to the R's performance. Was hoping for a bit more under the fun pedal...

Messing around visually with the numbers, this looked like a sweet spot to me: The chart shows the current upgrade gains, plus a reasonable bit extra for the moola. Turns out, 70 more HP and 70 more lb-ft would slot the F-150 Raptor in nicely below the R. Total would be 520HP and 580ft-lb. Seems fair...

also not factored in is ,winfield already tested some gen 3 a while back and i believe they were making 382,517 ft to the wheels stock ,does not change the small numbers this tune adds , if u factor in 20 percent drivetrain loss the trucks r making 458 /617 Ovi varies truck to truck, if u add the small tune these trucks ,they r closing in on raptor r territory for torque ,so maybe that y the conservative tune

I still don't understand why they left out the '24s. Same hardware since '21 and the ECU is the same as '23. Would love to know who is making these decisions at Ford.
