I was going to say, I saw somewhere it remains to be seen if tuners will have the ability to hack the system...

Intercooler is a Must for Turbo vehicles, especially in the Summer and Hot climates
Don't forget the Charge Pipes either

which pro tuner did you go through with your Cobb? I have a 2.3 Ecoboost in my Mustang and also use a Cobb, pro tuned by TunePlus (Adam Brunson) .. the off the shelf tunes on the Cobb are garbage, LOL
I have a feeling the 2.7 is going to be capable of power levels somewhere right between "insane" and "call PPG my transmission sounds like a blender"
I used a guy named Winfield from New Mexico. He goes by Goose. He is used by a lot of Raptor owners. https://www.goosetuned.com/

I have heard good things about the Rousch kits too, but they do not have one for the current F150. I know that people were getting over 100HP and over 50lbft of torque with the Stage 2 kit and some custom tuning. Hopefully they jump in the Bronco game early. They are local, so I should be able to get the tune done right if I go that direction. 350HP and a nice bump in Torque on an 89 octane tune (never know when crap gas is all that available) sounds good to me ?

I have a livernois tune on my 2.7 edge sport. You can check out specs on their YouTube page, I believe. If I remember correctly, the 93 tune added about 90 hp and around the same amount torque. I believe it went from 320 to 410hp.
You guys think tuning will mess up the GOAT modes? I've been wondering about that for a while now...
No. Tuners change engine parameters, but it is likely that Forscan will allow preset changes to customize settings to an owner’s preference. I.E. disabling traction control with a particular GOAT mode, turning lockers on, etc....

If you tell your tuner not to mess with them they won't. If it's like the past, Each mode will have it's own tables for tuning. They can be left alone.

This!!!
Will most of these tunes be safe with 87 octane for regular driving/road trips, and then use 93 for real performance boost? Or does getting a tune require you to permanently suck away an extra 60+ cents a gallon?
Also, are there tunes that would add modest hp/torque still running on 87, say an extra 20 hp or so? I'll be driving about 20k miles a year, so if I'm stuck with premium only, it definitely won't be worth it.

You can get a tuner with 3 installed tunes. 87,91,93 for example. Change them when you wish.

If you're going on a road trip I would just flash back to stock. Be wary of any performance tunes for 87 octane. The stock calibration pulls timing on 87. 87 octane "performance" tunes shouldn't even be a thing. The only way I would run one is if the engine calibration is left alone and it's just transmission tuning.
