NEW RAPTOR WAVE to contend with the Jeep wave.

[jimmyjamm]

My kids and wife decided when we got our Raptor that we needed a wave (we already have a Jeep, and I ride a street bike as well, so couldn't leave the truck out of a wave), so they came up with the three finger wave, like a raptor claw.

Not very many Raptors wave. In Metro Detroit I see a lot of them and in 9 years I only get about a 10% return so I quit.

Oh but you would be surprised what flipping the bird does it get a whole new type of reaction

So I’m new to raptor ownership and I love this thing. 2600 miles in and I’m all giddy with lights, AFE intake, Awe exhaust, JB4 piggyback, 2 alpine 10’s on 1200watts. All the fun stuff.

Today I realized that we as raptor owners use the same wave that Jeep owners use... Wait what??

Yeah we use the same wave. Some dude in a raptor did the Jeep waive at me the other day. Since then I’ve been deep in thought about this. Noticing that I was mentally anguished by the lack of cool wave that should be associated with such a unique truck and unique cadre of owners, it hit me.

Definition of Raptor: a bird of prey, e.g., an eagle, hawk, falcon, or owl.

ok basically a bird.

I Propose the new Raptor wave is the flipping of such bird to fellow raptor owners.

Sorry to the few out there I have tried it on already. A they were probably like what an ******* or **** that guy. Simply just trying to start a movement. Can we all agree!?!

Other than the waive, What do you think of the performance increase of the JB4?

It’s pretty nice. Only takes five min to deinstall too!! Only tried 93 and map 3 so far. Will try map5 with 5 gallons of e85 mixed in soon. I have a feeling I won’t be able to do the bird wave with that tune, my hands will be stuck to the steering wheel.

So how is the map3? I’m not familiar with the piggyback. So referencing you first hand about it.

There’s a tune to mix in some E85 with 93 octane?

Interesting subject.

When I was riding my HD Low rider it was usually a low hands down wave.

When riding my Suzuki GSXR it was a nod of the helmet.

Cruising in my Jeep it was a wave or a hand on the steering wheel at 12:00 wave.

When out blasting on the water it was a Shaka wave. Thumb and Pinky

Some people do it, some people don`t

I`m still confused, I guess there are brothers in everything from the military to skateboarders

Dayum, you've got 'em all down. What do you do when a pretty girl walks by?

Aw yes, the Raptor wave or also known as the Russian eagle, three times more powerful than the American bird.

Ok I'll put the Gentleman Jack down now.

Yes map 5 is for the mix (5 gallons) Map3 is very nice for 93 octane. It’s +4 PSI. Map 5 is +6. Check it out.
