A lot of the members her have been asking about performance mods and the ability to tune the new Bronco. There hasn't been much talk about it because of how difficult the 2021 Bronco as well as the new 2021 F150 are to tune. Most well known tuners in our industry simply do not have the tools needed to do this. However since Whipple is so deeply rooted in the Ford market and has some really good connections they've made it happen.
Their high flow air filter will be a direct replacement for all 2.3L/2.7L Broncos. We'll be filming the install as well as a driving review of and hope to get the Bronco on the dyno to show what it makes before/after the filter swap.
The Tomahawk Flash Device: This is the device that Whipple uses to flash your Bronco with a 50 state legal calibration. It's very easy to use. All you do once you receive it is plug it into the OBDII port, pull the factory file using the prompts on the screen and then send it off to Whipple. From that Whipple will build your calibration and email it back to you where you can then load it back onto the Tomahawk device and flash your Bronco with their calibration. The Tomahawk device also has the ability to datalog, read / clear DTC trouble codes as well as calibrate for different tires sizes and axle ratios.
I don't know the estimated HP/TQ gains at the moment however we will indeed be doing a back to back dyno from the stock calibration to the Whipple one to show everyone what it's worth. Besides HP/TQ gains you can expect much better and quicker throttle response as well as better shifting. Any of the vehicles I've owned that run Whipples calibrations run just as good as stock and still have all of the factory safety features that the stock calibration has.
As we edit the video I just filmed on this stuff I'd love to hear your guys thoughts so please feel free to reply with any questions you may have. I'll do the best to answer them for everyone.
Thanks!
