Didn't drive it, it was about to get PDI'd and I had a meeting.

Haha, I love the pic of your ride with one. It was the first one we've gotten it that wasn't a customer order! First time I sat in one. I agree the white is sweet. I'd do SG though.

I was left unimpressed. Maybe after a tune, but can't justify the 10k markup. What are you guys doing for markup?

Not sure, but it's not 10K lol

So what performance mods are worth doing? Offroad or catted downpipe? Cai or stock?

 

[05yellowgt]

Seems like the stock airbox is best. First and foremost you want a Tune. Biggest bang for the buck by far. Then do meth injection, and then exhaust. After that you are limited by the stock fuel system (both low pressure and high pressure sides)

What about suspension? Best to do the leveling with the Bilsteins or just use something like the Hell Bent Steel aluminum spacers? $300 for the steins and I have no idea if leveling through the suspension is better than just plopping in the spacer.

I've not done anything to mine suspension wise, but if I were to, I would go the Bilstein route.

The Bilstiein 5100s are pretty rough, IMO. The Rancho QuickLift or the F150lifts.com coil overs even...

Performance wise, tune by far makes biggest difference at 50 wheel hp 100 torque on a good 93 octane tune, then downpipes.

Stock airbox flows well enough ( I did a AirAid intake and only netted 7 rwhp and 11 torque increase with before and after dyno but I knew it would be similiar to that but mostly did it for more turbo whistle which intake does let you hear better )

Catback mostly for sound. If want OEM sound with good bit more turbo whistle and performance from the downpipe, pretty common to do downpipe to stock catback.

Got some duallys

 

[NastyStang113]

Very nice. I'm using a pair of floods in the rear for reverse lighting.

 

[cody2639]

I haven't decided on a mounting place yet. There are so many options haha

5.0L FX4 SCREW 5.5'. 50/50 split sees about 16 mpg right now. Running a tune and oddly get essentially the same mileage on either 87 or 93 octane.

Who's tune are you running? What tires/size?

Just a post about towing. Truck is bone stock. Been towing the trailer below 3/4 or 4/4 full for most of the winter and I could not be more pleased with how well this truck pulls it. Super excited about the capability of hauling at 70+ without really even thinking about it much.

Gas mileage..... don't ask. Doesn't matter though. For as little as I tow, it's more than acceptable rather than having a diesel again.

Run a tow tune and you'll shit yourself. I always recommend SSI. Go to f150ecotuning.com and check it out.

Added a set of flat black Raptor grapics last night to the truck... I was on the fence initially but def like it once seen all done. Realize it's not for everybody but I think it goes well with the truck.
