Nice build, glad to see somone built this.

A bit out of my price range for the end result but hopefully ford gets a ******* hint.

(ps ford, if you are reading this i want two turbos on a 6.2l you can even call it "eco" i dont give a shit. i just want factory boost already)

One has to wonder how that guy would have felt if you put the icons, deavers, bumps etc. on his stock raptor.
I doubt he would have been that blown away by the eco "raptor" if it was the motor, and only the motor, as far as differences.


Nice to see sdhq getting some press, they did an incredible job with that build. I especially like the tire carrier/bumper.

Great build but for $80,000 why not?

Makes us all wonder (again) why Ford doesn't offer the EcoBoost motor as an option in the Raptor.

Just curious, why do so many people want a raptor with an ecoboost?

Less power, less torque, and I bet MPG wouldn't be any better.

Did you watch the video? More power, more torque, better mpg. Of course, theirs is tuned.

Exactly. It's custom tuned.
A factory ecoboost raptor wouldn't be custom tuned. Aka, less power, less torque, and again, I'm only guessing, but similar or barely better mpg.

I <3 turbos

But i want them on a 6.2l, not a lame six banger.
