Well I was bored as **** and it was a nice day so I decided to take the truck and the family to my local track. The kids loved it and I'm very happy with the performance of the truck to this point. All runs were in Sport mode, with the nannies off (except the slow 13.7), in 4H with the rear end locked. Basically, I just had to figure out how much I could brake boost and not move out of the box. My mods are CAI, TB Spacer, 5startuning.com 93 Octane performance tune, hearthrob 4" catback, catless SW 3" Y-pipe (uninstalled right now)....truck had a half tank of fuel (18 gal), full sized spare, and my son's booster seat .


My catless DP is not installed because they shipped me the wrong pipe....so the truck is farting through a straw. I anticipate being at 13.0 or better once that's installed and the tune is adjusted. These trucks pick up about 30-40 horse from that. Additionally, I just ordered the Borla Borg Warner turbo upgrade kit.....5 star tuning's test truck put down over 500hp/616tq to the wheels with the turbos I just ordered. My truck is gonna hurt some buts after those are installed



13.7 Left stability control on by mistake.

13.5 Launched more aggressively and remember to turn the nannies off.

13.3 Felt pretty good but still could have launched harder....if the kids didn't have to go to bed I would have improved on the fourth run, the air was getting better and I was feeling the truck much better

Do you fold your mirrors in?

 

Impressive!

What gear ratio is in your truck?

 

Yes I do.

Thanks! She has a 3.55 rear.

 

Nice runs Sonic...what is the stock hp on a 2016 3.5L Ecoboost? I just brought a new King Ranch home and it feels much faster than my 2013 Plat with the 5.0 was...sales guy told me it was more powerful than the 385ph 5.0 (2016)...can that be true?

Also curious what boost levels will you be running with the BW turbo upgrades?

 

More Torque yes, but the 5.0 has more HP. The eco tends to feel more powerful thanks to the massive amount of torque at low RPM's.

A simple tune really wakes up the Eco.

 

Cool, thanks for the heads up, just back from driving the new KR and that engine amazes me...still can't believe how little turbo lag there is...seems Ford got this one right!

 

Thanks! To be honest I'm not sure the boost levels I'll see with the BW turbos on....5startuning's test truck with the same mods I have and the BW turbos made 500+whp and 615+wtq on 93! I'll take that all day and twice on Sunday. To have a truck that all said and done will have under $4k in performance mods and over 500hp/600tq to the wheels I think is a steal.
