No internal transmission upgrades, although the Raptor has its own spec torque converter and additional trans cooling.

Yes, on the media page for the Bronco Raptor. The original release reads 400 horsepower* which is followed up at the bottom with *Horsepower rating based on premium fuel per SAE J1349® standard. Your results may vary.

Thanks, do they know what the numbers are on regular fuel? The 2.3 and 2.7 have both of those numbers I find it kind of strange they didn't do the same with the Braptor.

I'll be happy when I stop seeing the olds tell me to buy a sports car if I want something fast. Bottom line is its all performance and we all want the best performance possible. bUy a MuSTanG......

like many say here (not really me), mileage doesn't matter, even if it's $25.00 a gallon...lol.

I'd figure that the mention of 400 hp is enough to keep people putting in whatever fuel, even at extreme prices. I mean, 375 hp, really....that's nothing. :poop: Who'd want only 375 when you can get 400? (sarcasm implied)

During development we only saw 400/430 for the power figure of the PP. This might be the regular fuel numbers then

Olds? I hardly consider myself to be old. 100 is the new 40...lol.

No Bronco is meant to have specs for speed. You won't see many at a track. It's meant for other things, obviously. Performance is not a measure of how fast a vehicle goes.

I'd hope nobody is buying this vehicle thinking it's meant to outrun a tesla on the highway, or any decent German engineered vehicle, for that matter.

I have an idea...buy a sports car for something fast and buy the Bronco for something that is high performance and a lot of fun! Not many sports cars can go off-roading!

I want mine to go fast off-road. I am not rock crawling but its not outrageous to say I want mine geared more towards desert runner. The argument of "its not supposed to be fast" is narrow-minded

Just keep in mind that HP numbers from Ford are crankshaft HP numbers. The 4x4 driveline steals a lot of that power, so your wheel horsepower through the auto trans should be lower.

Looks like a good choice for a easy swap if my 2.7 ever let's go. Definitely a simpler conversion than any v8
