Normal
I had a Roush on my 13, and a Whipple on my 14. I called several people about the Hellion kit as I too wanted one. It's still appealing, however the 6.2 is the biggest engine fit into the smallest truck Ford could fit it in. The tt fitment is incredibly tight and has caused melting and at least one fire. There are literally dozens of tuners who have tuned supercharger trucks, only a small handful who have seen tt trucks.I say go for it, blaze the trail, I bet it will be a rough one, with not much return over a sc truck.If I did a 4th truck today I would go back custom tuned Roush. The out of the hole power was superior to my whipple, even though my whipple probably makes more power on paper. I bet a tt truck is even worse out of the hole but even better on the top end. IMHO there is no need to build for top end power in a Raptor, except for pure bragging rights.Dennis
