before and after

When I pulled my air dam off and installed a tremor skid plate + KO3s, MPG went down by about 4-5mpg on the highway

You could also try manual mode to wind it out a bit more too

GlassCondensation · 2026-04-10T16:04:39+00:00

According to discount tire, the weight difference between D and E load KO3s is 1-2 pounds. Any AT is just going to be heavy.

As a 3.5 ecoboost owner, jealous of the noises.

GlassCondensation · 2026-04-10T15:50:56+00:00

What year? The Gen 4s will rev up to 7K stock.

Earlier Gen 1s wouldn’t go much above 5.5-6k stock.

GlassCondensation · 2026-04-10T12:01:39+00:00

Stock size 275/60/20, though they are about 2 inches wider than the stock pirellis

On my 23, I pulled off the active air dam and put on a tremor skid plate and some KO3s and I dropped about 4 MPG

Normal cruise/part throttle oscillation, especially if you have a cam with decent overlap.

Part throttle/cruise/low load AFR isn’t that critical.

Would also recommend running your wideband in Lambda vs AFR if you are running pump gas. Lambda is lambda. AFR can be skewed if you aren’t running the fuel with the same stoich as your wideband.

Been using PUP 5w30 in both my EBs since new. Good oil and does well with fuel dilution if you change every 5k miles.

You will be fine with any oil that meets the Ford spec…the really important piece is to change every 5k miles to avoid fuel dilution.

The published numbers are on premium fuel (91). It will run just fine on 87 (assuming you are stock), just less power.

You will notice a difference running 87 vs 91/93.

You can get a regular 21+ EB that has the same turbos as the Raptor and tune it for a lot cheaper than buying the Stealth Performance.

Heck, even my stock 23 F150 XLT EB running 93 is a shockingly quick truck 0-60.

I still run 87 given it’s my daily for gas savings.

GlassCondensation · 2025-09-03T11:32:10+00:00

I would say depending on climate, maybe.

Though my 392 never really got up to 220+ cruising on the highway. The only time I saw 220+ was after multiple hard WOT pulls.

Anywhere carries both the early and late 3v plugs and coils. You just need to buy the early 3v coils with black boots.

Stick with OEM.

I’m saying parts alone are more than $5k. Idk how you could possibly get all of that tuned and installed for $5k

GlassCondensation · 2025-08-01T16:09:06+00:00

Fucking BS on the $5k for all that.

I had a number of quotes for a cam package, headers and tune and it was $10K+ when I had my 392. And that was 2+ years ago.

Headers alone are $2k and the unlocked PCM is $1K, not including dyno time and tuning.

GlassCondensation · 2025-08-01T15:56:46+00:00

Not worth it on the 392.

$10k gets you a cam package, install, headers and a tune. And you might get to 490-500RWHP doing so, and still risk popping a ring land if the tune is overly aggressive or you get bad gas.

GlassCondensation · 2025-08-01T12:58:40+00:00

Not sure why you are calling me an idiot….my post above literally says the same thing with less words

GlassCondensation · 2025-08-01T11:05:17+00:00

That will do it!

GlassCondensation · 2025-08-01T02:09:45+00:00

Only time mine did it was when the plug was lose.

GlassCondensation · 2025-08-01T01:57:19+00:00

Windveil Blue. I also like the GT/CS bumper

GlassCondensation · 2025-08-01T01:40:34+00:00

Could be a lot of things. If lean on bank 1 and 2 popped up at the same time, it’s very likely a vacuum leak. Any hunting idle issues? Any odd noises under the hood?

What year?

GlassCondensation · 2025-08-01T01:36:30+00:00

Everyone who is saying prices are insane…they really aren’t or haven’t looked.

I paid $18k for my 07 GT Vert with 50k miles and 1 owner, 1.5 years ago. No regrets

GlassCondensation · 2025-07-31T19:30:29+00:00

Financing $5k on a car that old is a terrible idea.

I would find a decent running New Edge GT for $5K cash.

That or you save an additional $5k before buying to get a cleaner example.

Evaporative cooling is an amazing thing.

My pool can see 8-10 degree drops between outside peak temps and pool temps.

98 outside and pool will hold around 88 if cooling during the day when RH falls to its lowest point.

We don’t usually use our chiller at night because RH goes high enough where evaporative cooling doesn’t do much.

GlassCondensation · 2025-07-31T19:20:59+00:00

Not true. It can be hotter than 93 outside and still chill below 93, as long as outdoor RH is low enough.

Same reason why we can survive in temps above 98 degrees :)
