So one of the things that has pissed me off about my Supercharged Raptor is that off-road mode does not work, or at least it does not allow me to push the truck in off-road mode with out going into limp mode.

So, I have spent the last month researching this to find a solution. I am happy to announce that I now have a tune that allows the truck to perform to its fullest potential in all modes.

Holy shit, it is so much more fun.

The guy who did the tune is going to spend a little more time dialing in the performance end. Possible even fly down to Cabo so that he can spend some time tuning the truck live, maybe even on a dyno, but soon he will make this tune available for others to enjoy.

I am sure he would. He is a superstar in the tuning world. John Hennessey and Jamal Hameedi both recommended him for this project.

I don't want to post his info, as I am sure it is against the forum rules. You can pm me and I will share his contact info.

Is this something that could be loaded on a tuner and used on a truck that has a ProCharger and headers? Are you running headers?

I am really surprised that I am not hearing from more supercharged Raptor owners.

This fixes the biggest issue the procharger Raptor has.

I post about my tuner all the time. Who is it? And I wouldn't trust a word Hennessey says. He can't tune his own stuff without blowing up.

Honestly it has zero to do with the blower and everything to do with the tune. In SCT there is nothing that says Off-road mode and normal driving. The truck has about 100 different tables pulls from. So if they are selling you a tune just for off-road mode they are full of shit.

My Knowledge of tunes is 0. However, What I do know is that the tune from procharger worked great in normal mode, but put the truck in off-road mode and the truck went into limp mode instantly. After calling procharger and asking them for a solution there answer was that most of their clients never used off-road mode, and that they did not have a solution.

John Hennessey was very gracious to assist me in this project, and while I know a great deal of people on the forums despise Hennessey Performance, I have received nothing but top rate service from the company as well as John. FYI, Jamal Hameedi also identified Torrie as a tuner that would be capable of fixing this issue.

Also, Nobody sold me shit, I spent the time to find a solution to a problem that exists on all Procharged Raptors. It seems that most use Procharger's tune, some with minor modifications.

The tuners name is Torrie McPhail, and what I can definitely tell you is that he fixed a problem that I had. If others running the Procharger supercharger would like this solution. It is available.

Also most don't run a can'd tune

John Hennessey is helpful because about $100K in a $50+ truck and your on all the Raptor forums. He sees you as a pay day and free advertising. Jamal Hameedi honestly only knows Torrie from Joe's TT GT. There are better F-150 tuners out there Mike Troyer of Troyer Performance and Mike at 5star specialize in these trucks. You can't tune F-150s like mustangs. Example JDM sent me a modified Mustang Hot rod cam tune for my Raptor and it ran horrible. After a day with Mike on dyno the truck ran better then stock.

I'm not saying that. I'm say if they said they are going to fix Off-road mode by tuning just that they are full of shit.

How are you going to have it tuned on the street or on a dyno?

Cool, I hope they treat you as well as John and Hennessey have treated me.

My problem is now fixed, and I am grateful to John, Jamal and Torrie for there help.

I am talking to Torrie about flying down to Cabo for a working Vacation.
