re: 2017 Ford Raptor to have 3.5l V-6 ecoboost only

They run a big and small turbo setup. The small one spools up quicker, and the big one makes more boost. On my old truck, I got it up to 62psi before SHTF, but it was regularly above 45

I was under the impression the Supra was the only car to have the sequential turbo setup.
No, Porsche 959, Mazda Rx7 .. A few other JDM cars.. Not the one..
GTRs run a parallel, but with the intake being continually variable power is smoother

the FORD on the grill is so ugly. Subtle wasn't a word the design team took into consideration

but that would make it look like poo poo.

Man, IDK.
is it under warranty still?
Clames would be the one to ask about Fords I think.

Ford and Ram are having a "huge, obnoxious logo" contest and we're the losers.
Posted on 1/14/16 at 12:17 pm to meauxjeaux2
Raptors are gay anyways. Might as well give it a gay V6

Everyone has different tastes. I hate chrome. So the all black appeals to me.
Posted on 1/14/16 at 12:22 pm to meauxjeaux2
Looks too Jersey to me, but I've never really like the look of the Raptors before it either.

Turbos make per down low.

The only real negative was MPG and I bet that's way better with this engine.
Not really. I average <13MPG in my ecoboost. I have heard of people averaging 18-20 but they HAVE to drive like a paw paw everywhere.

me too which is why there is none on my truck
As a matter of fact, the chrome grill surround bothered me enough that I got it painted to match like the KR.

That's not too bad the way it was.
Can't stand the all chrome tailgates on the platinum. Well half chrome.

I agree, now you can get a King Ranch chrome package with the chrome tailgate. They dropped the ball on that

In my old 2011 EcoBoost it did it to me 1 time getting on I-10 EB at the Iowa, LA ramp in front of an 18 wheeler. Scared the shite out of me but never had the problem again
