Thinking of Selling my 2023 Raptor R

[Kurator]

Do you how many speeding ticket or expedition of speed (90+mph) in most states will get you for $16K ? And your insurance rates will probably climb to the ceiling. LM-AO.

I always install laser jamming on all of my cars as I have PTSD on getting tickets. My first and last speeding ticket was in NYC, cost me 3,500$ in attorney fees, tickets itself about 1,500$ and I lost my driving privileges for a year.

** Come to the Northeast part of the Midwest where ASE certified mechanics (techs) out here will happily work on your Raptor V6's or Raptor R's and only charge (it may vary) like $85.00 an hour of labor and only charge "REAL" hours, and not book hours. Dyno time in these parts is very reasonable too, and these race shops with their own dyno's are "LEGIT"
I'm having my '23 EcoBoost V6 run thru (dyno) with only a Livernois Motorsports Intercooler and a Roush Cold Air Intake to get a baseline pull (#'s), then were adding a Livernois Motorsports tune for E85 and 91 octane, along with new injectors, a new fuel delivery system, catch can and a low temperature thermostat. Then I'll run it again (same dyno) to get a fresh set of numbers (#) and then were adding a set of Stage 4 CR turbos (back ordered I'm told) and "another" trip to that same dyno shop, for a third and "final" set of numbers (#). I have know idea what the second set of numbers (#) will be after my guy "Pat" installs everything except the set of CR Turbos. And then, when the CR Turbos are installed, then I'm told: the sky is the limit "LMF-O" I'll let Y'all know the baseline pull numbers #'s, the second set of numbers #'s (less the CR Turbos) and finally when this project is completed hopefully in October or November of this year.

*** You never know what else this "mad" scientist may think up down the road.

** "NO" downpipes or aftermarket exhaust system for this guy, but "maybe" stainless steel headers (if it makes "legit" horsepower gains).

"GO BIG" or "GO HOME"

Headers on a turbocharged engine? Let me know how that works out.

 

[MultiStateRaptor Guy]

It was just a thought, I maybe way off the path of these V6 EcoBoost twin turbo motors.

Perhaps a little insightful phrase could help you….


Tickets or trophy’s?

You want to drive fast.. go to the track, it’s legal and fun. Avoid tickets.

Wtf? Are you on some white magic fairly dust? Seem manic. Get that CS out and enjoy the speed

I have no idea what’s going on in this thread but that is a real nice R.

Agreed. It's just a csl. Drive it. My buddy that is in our car group has over 45k miles on his. My mclaren 600lt has 28k miles on it. Their made to be driven

 

[MultiStateRaptor Guy]

No MAGIC DUST, driving those type of "MAYBE" collector cars with only 314 of these 2023 M4 CSL produced for the U.S. and Canada and "that's it" for this generation of these M4 CSL's, especially in this Frozen Brooklyn Grey Metallic and what I believe are the right seats for this vehicle, unless your a thoroughbred jockey as your full time job. Plus the fact: I've driven all the high horsepower normally aspirated and twin turbo Porsche: Carrera GT, GT3 RS, GT2 RS and a real GT3 Cup Car. This M4 CSL only has 543 horsepower, it's not like I'd be strapped into an F1 car, first of all: I wouldn't fit, and number #2, I'd be scared "sh-tless"

I can find 32 for sale just by a quick Google search. Actually good deals too. Their sweet rides- but again. Meant to driven- it's a bmw
