Nothing you said addresses the real issue: the internal bypass system. Lifting changes where the suspension sits in its stroke, throwing off the FOX bypass zones and Live Valve calibration. The system tries to adjust, but it’s not functioning as originally engineered. There are plenty of f150...
After an extensive talk with the FOX engineers at King of Hammers, I’ll never lift my Bronco Raptor unless FOX develops a proper solution. Lifting changes the shock stroke, which throws off the internal bypass zones—these are precisely tuned to manage damping at different points in travel. Once...
I’ll come by and say hi tomorrow in between qualifying. Yeah being a yellow jack is fun for sure. I’ve got some amazing shots. Drove the Braptor all the way down from Canada.
Also I meant to video the whole install for you guys but both my cameras died mid install. But I can provide any additional photos for you guys that you want.
I don’t see a concern for water egress over stock. I live in the Pacific Northwest so I’ll check it the next atmospheric river that comes through here. But the flapper on the stock box looks like it would work good if you were fording a river, hit a deep pocket and dipped your hood near that...
So, I ordered a K&N Intake from @LethalPerformance and just wanted to clarify that it fits 2022s with zero issues. I wanted to clarify that because K&N says it's 23 and up (or did).
Yes, the claimed performance may or may not be there. I purely did it for the sound, and it has been delivered...
Okay Epiphany was right, took the truck out today and the transmission is relearning. Very happy with the tune.
As for the post about holding third long. Not sure how long your tune has been in. But I hope it gets better the more you drive it. Could be relearning.
I mean this is my first opinion of it. I liked the aggressive down shifts especially coming into a hot corner. On acceleration it pulls and pulls. But on downshift now its almost lazy. Perhaps it's still learning since the tune is fresh. Or maybe I need to reset the TCU in the device and let it...
Well the tune is in. Those that have Macbooks and plan to install yourself ill do a write up on how to run windows on your mac for pretty much free so you can update and install.
First off opinion. Those complaining about the sport mode shifting of the original tune, go back to driving a...
I actually enjoyed this video and I respect oneil rally school. But he really screwed up the electronic set up on that one. Baja mode, shift back to 2H, sport suspension possibly lock the rear diff depending on feel and conditions. The transmission would've been more aggressive as well as the...
So I thought I’d throw this up. I developed a rattle out of now where. Thought it was exhaust, thought it might have been a loose skid plate. But I found that someone had mentioned they had a rattle they thought was exhaust and found out it was a IWE issue. I will attach a very good video on...
I think the B&O in the Braptor is quite good for a stock system, normally listening in High quality Lossless and settings tweaked. My fiance has a Lamborghini Urus with a B&O system definitely hits better. But neither system will equal a well set up custom stereo... ever. I also have zero want...
Inner tierod…
Have a quick question: is the inner tie rod. My truck was struck by a car in the front end. And snapped the inner tie rod. It’s a bronco raptor. What are my options, if any, as ford is back ordered on the stock part, and I need it drivable.
I agree with swamp, these are great numbers. Although it’s been discussed before about dyno accuracy. I wonder what a hub dyno would say, we are losing a lot to those 37”s. Just be interesting to see different dyno numbers. Regardless… I am stoked about this tune and I’m curious if whips plans...
yeah I can try to summarize in a pro / con list
Pro:
- Better flow
- Better control of heat soak
- Better sound (subjective)
- less weight
- More HP/TQ once ecu tuning is done
- faster spool
cons:
- sound (subjective)
- modification of emissions equipment (warranty and local law)
- possible o2...
A contributing factor but not what causes the turbine to spin at those insane rpm. Yes the exhaust stroke is pushing, hot expanding gases through to the header and the turbo is the exit sign for those gases.
Think of it like a bunch of angry zombies pushing through a revolving door, into the...
I think it’s sounds great, I’ll be getting a set for sure.
I’d like to throw my two cents into the ring here about these half truths about gains etc.
having actual ecu tuned cars before, I’ll set a few things straight.
1) You most likely won’t get much or any change in peak horse power or tq...
