    Thank you for your opinion.

    The Ford raptor ecoboost V6 3.5L makes more torque at low rpm than almost any other truck available that isn't diesel.
    And it doesn't use a supercharger.

    Ford has, in almost every ecoboost engine they offer, proven this notion that turbos cannot provide down low torque utterly false.

    From the 1.6, to the 2.3 to the 3.5. ALL of them provide more torque at low rpm than any, any supercharged competitor.


    Using a local tuner is not a bad idea, if they are an expert in your specific vehicle and tuning that engine. Otherwise that tuner is using most of the time for testing and discovery. Don't believe it, go look at all the tundras now being tuned locally with HPTuners. It's a mess.

    I challenge ANY supercharger on the market or coming to market to make more torque under 3000 rpm than our TT does.

    That's not to say supercharger won't be great on this engine. But I'd loveeee to see one make 25psi at 2500 rpm. Because that's actually possible with TTs.

    Now, I am a bit biased of course. It's my product, and my in house testing. But some of the things being said were true 10 years ago, not today.

    @OVTune can you post some pics of the engine bay with the complete turbo system installed? I’m trying to figure out if these will fit in the SR5 trucks since the ABS is in a different location from TRD models

    Someone say ecoboost :anonymous:

    Those Garrett powermax, are they the same ones used on the ecoboost? What's the deets on those?

    Also TTs are the best. You guys need to do an EFR kit next:thumbsup:

    Passenger rear of engine bay is ABS location for non-TRD models

    Also, are my dual batteries in the way?

    Be careful if you actually wheel hard with that dual battery side by side setup.
    I managed to break of the entire oil filler head on a trail in Arizona the engine has some play obviously and will knock the filler neck. If you wheel that is.. I went with the other option and put my other battery behind the air box

    understand I might be moving my second battery to the bed to fit the TT

    Exactly where this truck desperately needs more torque.
