Was at the local eighth mile track Saturday and ran into a 12 ecoboost with a tune and 410's he said. Ran him three different times his best was an 8.78 @ 77 MPH to my 8.70 @ 79 MPH. The damn thing is fast for a v6. But this would just be a rehash for GM. we all know how well the Grand Nationals could be made to run, hell even stock they were pretty quick for the day.

Saw this guy at SGMP for the truck Shootout.. Truck had a tune, intake, & down pipe. Truck was a 2WD crew cab.

This is his slip, the right time.

I think the 2013s upgraded to twin 51mm.
Yeah the 13s have 51s but theyve got a hybrid computer thats part F150 and part SHO to run the new wastegate design and electronic BOV so no one can tune them yet. I forget the name of the company but theres one coming out with bigger turbos but there again fuel is going to be the limiting factor.

I'll probably buy a new truck in model year 16 which should be the second year for the new gen F150. Its also suppose to have the next gen ecoboost. GM needs to get with the times, their tiny crew cabs and shitty interior finish is getting old.

I'm sure the fuel limitations will be taken care of. All it takes is money. Our trucks have fuel limitations too, maybe a little higher limit but its there, and I have hit it.

Yeah, Full Race is working on bigger turbos, fuel system, and already has a larger front mount intercooler available. And yes, the whole reason I bought the ford was because I did not want the same exact truck/interior I had had 6 years ago.
