i have a 2018 raptor since i bought the throttle responds really sucks, when you give throttle just a little bit it likes dose not want to go, then when you give it a little more it takes off. it's like it doesn't want to take off, i would like to know it there is a way that i can fix that or FORSCAN has a way of fixing it. i spent over $250.00 on the sprint boster but it was no help it still dose the same thing. can someone help me with this issue i would very much appreciated send me an email at [email protected] thank you.

Yes, I really hated the delay in throttle response and combined with a transmission searching for the right gear or hard shifting gears made the driving experience less than great. Goose tune with TCM fixed all of that.

Second with tune. I have MPT. If you do decide to I would get the TCM tuned as well. Total different truck.

Wasn't there an issue like this reported before and that a "gas pedal relearn" can be done? Doing this effectively takes the pedal "band" back to stock so that it has the full pedal throw to provide signal to the drive by wire parameters. I think these drive by wire vehicles have a tendency over time to narrow the useable throw of the pedal to provide a signal. I will have to go and find the instructions, but I know I have seen other F150 owners have to do that occasionally to get the true feel back.

Try running some higher octane fuel, if you're running regular. It makes a huge difference on these truck.

Here is the relearn procedure that will get pedal response back to where it should be.
