I'm seeing a lot of f150 ecoboost guys blowing up their engines with tunes.

I think they blow up on their own around 100k miles.

I don't mess with that kind of stuff even though I am an auto enthusiast. Something about messing with the warranty on a $50k truck keeps me at bay.

Maybe $1K to run extra boost, an easy 75+ real hp.

Once that warranty is done, it's on.

My trucks sticker says it makes 360hp, but Chevrolet lied because of the insurance companies. Only company to ever do that. M It's really 460hp.

Don't need to boost a good diesel engine. Got all the power one needs.
