Put some 17 or 18 inch tires/rims on and you will be right with or ahead of your ecoboost buddy. Heavier rims really do make that much of a difference. Also make sure that you have some 92 octane or better fuel in your truck at 1/4 tank or so. You can also remove your spare tire to help out as well.

Good Luck!

8's are close! I'd say headers will definitely get you there. Maybe even a little cooler air will do it. I was going to take mine but the track here has already closed for the season
