Ford Performance - Tune for the HO ecoboost

[sfreedom97]

Just an fyi for the folks here:

I had some windshield time and I decided to call Ford Performance to ask why/if there would be a solution for a bug deflector for the Gen 3. I was bored…

With no solution there, the rep did tell me “I do have some good news”:

Engineers are currently working on an official tune for the HO ecoboost engine. Plug and play type adapter with a tablet. Backed with Ford’s warranty for those that add it. No info yet on the gains, but some good news for those that are looking for it.

It’ll require premium fuel and the price will be “$800-$900” potentially if it’s in line with other tuned for the bronco, etc.

I asked about timeframe and it’s unknown but potentially within the next 12 months.

Seeing the supercharger package for the black and bronze edition standard cab, it’s clear Ford Performance sees an opportunity with enthusiasts.

Nice!

Well that would be cool.

I wonder if the tune is in response to the new 3.0L Hurricane that's about to be in Ram?

This is really good news

I wonder what it will do to those of us that have existing extended warranties...

Hopefully this means the other tuning companies will be able to do something with the 23s soon

This would be awesome. I would be on-board.

I will order as soon as it's for sale.

This is really good news

If its anything like the ranger, 3yr 36 from the date the truck left the lot.

Imo at least for that truck, wasnt worth the potential loss of powertrain warranty

That's cool, shit as long as it doesn't void anything who cares!
