I have a 2011 Ford F150 with ecoboost and I wish I could throw that thing in my Raptor... Torque for days and fuel economy to boot. I waited to see if Ford would introduce one, but decided to pull the trigger on the new one. I have yet to put them side by side and see, but with the larger tires on the Raptor, I am quite certain this little truck would eat the Raptors lunch off the line...

I actually believe it's the other way around. The Raptor jumps off the line until the turbo spools, then it gains on the Raptor. However, throw 35's on the EB and now it's a different concept.

If the ecoboost engine was a better fit for the raptor(better mileage and sufficient power), why did they go with the 6.2?
