Ford Performance upgrades

[solarwinds]

The end of the world is coming too. Wait for it.

PS: Those new TVs, laptops and other stuff - don't buy them - there'll be better versions out soon. Wait for them too.

Fixed it for ya'


True ****** move <-- that's NOT sarcasm, idiot

You don't need to "read my posts much" to know what I mean - because I know sarcasm is rarely obvious when typed and there's no sarcasm emoji

obviously the end of the world is coming. in like 2.3 billion years or so unless the sun explodes before then or the galaxy runs into another galaxy.

With a few mods and a simple tune the truck puts down over 600lb*ft of torque.

Has anybody actually put down 600 RWTQ yet? What were the mods?

I meant bhp.... sorry for the confusion. RWTQ close to 500lbs at the wheels.

Whipple Yes!!!

Saw this article - One-Off F-22 Ford F-150 Raptor Auctioned for Charity | News | Car and Driver | Car and Driver Blog

Could this be the Ford Performance upgrade that we are looking for?

I'm hoping they just relabel the Whipple kit and Whipple gets the CARB Cirt!!

Squatch , if there was a V8 option and the ecoboost v6, I'd go ecoboost all day everyday.

Obviously this poll was created for an engine that doesn't exist (yet) but I'd be willing to bet instead of 90/10 for the hypothetical Eco V8 over the V6 it would still be at least 50/50 if Ford offered an NA V8, regardless of size. I know I'd get another Raptor immediately if Ford offered a V8. I'd really love to link and cage my current one and still have one to drive daily.

Hopefully Ford will man up and put the new 7.0 DOHC V8 they are developing into the Raptor at some point. But truth is I'd be fine if they just offered a 5.0 option. That engine is good for 700+ horsepower with a Whipple. And way more if you build it. With the 5.0, we'd finally be tapped into the Mustang aftermarket.

A 7.0L DOHC would interesting for sure, but if it was between a NA 5.0 and a 3.5 HO Ecoboost I'd still check off the ecoboost box. I would think 650 plus HP is doable with a tune and turbo upgrade if you're so inclined.

I'm quite sure 650 is doable with turbo upgrades. Probably a good bit more.

Doesn't change my point of view, though.

it’s good to have goals and everything but... what will be the weak link that breaks at 600-650 hp on a 5700 pound 4x4?
