    $45k for a Ford Raptor a couple blocks from my house. Been there a month at least. Showed it to my kids today as we drove by after church. They didn't like it.

    Wish I had some cash... it's the old 6 Liter V8 too. Blub, blub, blub...

    LOL So he replaced ECU slightly more frequently than I'm having to rebuild 3rd members. :(

    The Cali is not a mind-boggling mod, but it does give a nice additional kick right about at the VVT kick in point.

    MAF Cal is finally here.

    20171003_132356.jpg

    Didn't realize I had to connect this sucker to one of the spark plug coils. Simple with this plug and play version. Just had to open up the factory air box so I could get to the plug.

    Truck fired up like normal. Took it for a 20 mile test drive. Because my 3rd member is still in break in period I can't yet mash the pedal. So no feedback there.

    However, I can say the low end RPM range feels smoother and more fluid. No idea how that will translate to MPGs or performance but the motor didn't feel bogged down in that 1,000-1,500rpm range.

    No other noticeable changes so far. Time will tell as I run tanks of gas through and get to mash the pedal some day how it actually feels when I tell it to go.

    YEP!

    Cleared my engine codes. Took a 20 mile drive. CEL came back on about 15-18 miles in. All smooth cruising (no hard accel, speeds 50-60mph).
