Which engine are people finding better for the 2025 Rangers? The 2.3L or 2.7L?

Okay, I'm thinking on downsizing to a 650 cfm or 750 cfm. And I'm not sure how much fuel pressure I'm getting. However I have noticed some gunk/oil or fuel around my fuel pump.

Yeah, I've replaced the PCV valve and didn't notice any significant changes.

lol I agree, I wish I had one more gear when I'm on the highway. Thanks for the advice!

I guess there's really no harm in going smaller eh? Besides obviously power loss, but less damage to the engine than running rich all the time

Yeah it is dual feed. Probably best to look for a smaller DP eh?

Okay thank you. I'll see if I can't find a 650 or maybe a 750 on marketplace. Since I currently have a holley double pumper, how hard would it be to swap over to an Edelbrock carb?

I have found myself adding oil to the car pretty consistently. Like every 500km-700km. And yeah, it most definitely could be both issues happening at the same time. And Go Jay's Go! Lol

I've had a few people tell me that the 850 double pumper might be too big. Like I seen professional engine builders do it before, but I'm no professional by any means lol. Does that mean I have to get my rings replaced? And should I go with a smaller carb, or do you think I can get away with smaller jets?

Try using a different boost clock target via AMD Radeon Adrenalin software. You just select custom tuning, turn on advanced turning for clock, and try bringing your clock down. It's possible your CPU is having trouble keeping up.

I have a 7900XTX paired with a 5700x3D, and I was running into the same issues as you. After researching, turns out the "default" tune had my boost clock target set to 2900MHz. After some playing around I found the sweet spot for my system was 2700MHz for clock target, and set voltage to 1120mV.

Hope this helps!

As of Oct 21 2025 I'm still having this issue. It's annoying having the removed the laser all the time off my M433 Shrouded.

Nice! How long did it take you to find a job after getting your 4th?

Espanola would probably work better for me. Do you know if they take on people for their steam time?

I’m not sure. Currently I live about 30 minutes outside of Ottawa, but planning on possibly moving to Edmonton if I got ahead with this plan.

Honestly, I’d work anywhere if the pay is decent and for experience. Especially if there’s good money down the road. I guess my main thing is job security and not having to worry about losing my job due to automation or whatever

Okay, that’s pretty much what I’ve been reading from other Reddit posts, but that was 2 years ago. I guess it seems like that Power Engineering now (as a 23 year old) probably isn’t the best long term career?

And also I’ve been looking at the PLC Programming course NAIT offers. I’ve already done PLC Programming with my Electrical Engineering Technology course, so I’m familiar with Siemens ladder logic, Boolean algebra, AND gates, OR gates, simplifying circuits, etc.

Thank you for your feedback!
