You can tune the 21-22 raptor’s not the newest ones, I have had 2 Gen2s (current DD is a 2020 F150 Raptor) I wouldn’t drive one w/o being tuned anymore, they’re right, you gain 80-120hp just w/ a tune
I had this done to my Focus ST, I gained only 30-40 HP but gained 90 tourqe. The only issue is, you have to use 91 and above. You lose the option to use 87 octain. Also my fuel economy went up, so I guess it evens out? These tunes are made by Ford Performance, they have been around for years.
3 year 36,000 powertrain warranty after the tune is good, but you have 5 year 60,000 powertrain warranty on the original tune. So for most people on a 5 or 6 year loan, you might consider selling when the 36 months are up. That engine ain't gonna be cheap to replace when it blows.
Couldn’t you just revert the tune after 3/36 if you really wanted to be safe? It’d be hard/impossible for them to blame the tune for subsequent damage if you didn’t have it tuned anymore.
@nismo370z4 Why are you assuming the engine will blow? I've been running a Stage 4 93 Octane Livernois Motorsport tune on my 2020 Explorer ST a few months after I bought it (same engine in the Bronco & Ranger Raptors). I drive my truck like I stole it, and almost everyone likes to TRY and size me up until they're breathing in my exhaust fumes. I'm over 4 years now with my tune and I have ZERO issues with the powertrain in my truck. And Livernois' tunes are more aggressive than Ford's tune. For example, it's Dyno'd at 410HP & 475TQ at the wheels! Ford didn't specify if their power is at the crank or the wheels.

This new torque rating of 536ft-lbs pushes this into 10R80 category of a max 580 ft-lbs. This seems sketchy to me unless they've recently "uprated" these transmissions, and if so, what was changed? Sounds really cool though, looking forward to seeing this.
@@Jay-me7gw sure but that is not the same as a factory backing their transmission warranty. I saw a MT article saying the Raptor variants get a revised torque converter and secondary oil cooler, so that may be part of why they're able to bump up power and torque specs more versus the other 10r60 equipped vehicles (Explorer ST has a FP tune but it's only rated for 430/467).
Correct, it is the 10R60, however it's not an issue with more torque. Those boxes perform well as long as you add an additional cooler to keep the oil cold. Over 1000 RRs now in Australia with 780Nm/510HP Performance Package. I've had mine for over a year now, done over 20.000km with the performance package.
Ford’s powertrain management will reduce output in certain gears to keep reliability. Ford could give it 600hp and you would never experience it due to software.
30min labor to install at the dealer, or any ASE certified mechanic can install for you.

Why do people care about acceleration in trucks? If you want to go fast, buy a muscle car or sports car, right? Seriously, racing a truck on the street or highway is doubly irresponsible.

It possible. That they were in the lab test engine and see how they push HP. Or they had this in there back pocket and was waiting for other competitors to see if they increase there hp with launch of raptor so they could remain king of HP
Great video guys, exciting news for sure. I am planning to get the tune for RR as well. Really looking forward to all your new Ranger Raptor testing. Should be very interesting. Adding 100 lbs of torque at that lower RPM range, could in theory anyway actually improve fuel economy. Not that would be why any of us owners bought our Ranger Raptors. LOL I will say the requirement for Premium fuel has me curious, if that is only one of those things that if you want that max power you need the premium fuel, or is something changing that is actually going to require premium fuel all the time.
So just curious. And maybe someone else has commented on this I didn’t look through all the comments. So basically the explorer ST has the same engine and I think the same 10 speed transmission. I’ll be at the set up differently in the computer, if this tune from the factory is OK for the ranger and bronco should it not be also good for the explorer ST? Can you do some research on this and find out if that will be available for the ST
At best they might make a Maverick ST with the 2.7. They won't put tge 3.0 in it, because he would step on the toes of the Ranger Raptor and Explorer ST.
You have to wonder about long term effects on the driveline hardware. You get the upgrade because you want to use it. So what are the currrent max ratings on the trans and driveline gears? Or did Ford spec the Ranger for this power prior to offering the tune?
Ranger Raptor offers by far the most performance, the standard Colorado ZR2 offers the best value and Tacoma is bringing up the rear on both. It will be interesting to see how the sales numbers reflect this over time.
100% agree. GM's hud and vented seats are nice to see in the midsize market. They do seem to have the most issues of the whole bunch though. Taco is in the basement.
Given the cam phaser issues now appearing on the 3.0 engine, not sure I'd give up 2years and 14k miles of powertrain warranty for the extra power/torque.
Hope this isn’t a spoiler for the podcast I haven’t listened to yet! 😂 Really enjoying the “Toaster” test. As cool as the Gauntlet is, I think the toaster is closer (forced rhyme) to where the average person works be. Either way keep up the great work!
If GM wanted to compete with this they would need to drop another engine into the Colorado as far as I am concerned. I don't think they will do this and prefer keeping the truck more competitive by being cheaper.
Yea, I was thinking the same thing. I am thinking the 4 banger turbos in the GM and Toyota's would be hard pressed to ever to get them to produce that sort of power reliably anyway.
If you want to make lot of money cheaper is the way to go. Since people like to copy other people. Look at Toyota is was top because it was cheapest most reliable truck and if other truck company can do that they will be come most bought truck
As a Raptor owner, I care more about suspension than horsepower. I have a tuned eco boost with plenty of power that tune on the bronco and Ranger is plenty of juice. They don’t need to worry about what Dodge is doing as long as their suspension does what they say the trucks are for
Agree, plenty of power already. The real magic is the suspension. Over high speed washboard, it’s the best riding truck I’ve ever driven. Ford nailed suspension design and tune, IMHO.
You guys mention the toasted test. You need to put the obd reader in the trucks and data log torque while pulling that hill. I bet most of these trucks are not using anywhere near their maximum output.
It’s crazy. Great truck but sticking to my jeep gladiator 2022 that I paid 44k for when I they were letting them go for cheap. Keeping the truck but the bronco raptor is my want but dang the prices.
Best midsize truck on the market & the Colorado ZR2/Canyon AT4X are a distant 2nd place. I don’t even see the Tacoma as beating the Frontier when price is factored. The segment has changed dramatically.
This is great as it won't void warranty... however, the rest of us can go with aftermarket tuners, OZ, MPT to name a couple, and get a performance tune, ex: 93x tune from MPT, and get much higher numbers than a 50 hourse gain...
Honestly, I wouldn’t trust most of those guys to make a truly safe tune. I ran tunes from 4 different companies on my F150 and, once I learned how to tune it myself and started really datalogging and looking closer at the tunes, they were not great. They could have made way better and safer tunes.
The stock Ranger Raptor numbers are already on premium fuel, so obviously this is too. Are you willing to pay $57k plus tax title and registration only to whine about premium fuel? 😂
If anyone is interested I have an appointment this afternoon with my local dealer for the tune, I can shoot by uwharrie and do a timed run on the OHV course before and after the upgrade. I can post the times here if you want.
Depends on how heavy your right foot is. If you drive normally before and after, I bet it'll be more or less the same. Some vehicles even gain slightly more mpg after getting an aftermarket tune. Since this is a factory certified tune, it should maintain the same level of mpg, as long as its driven normally
I am 100% with Kase on wanting to see Ford to shove a Coyte in there. That would be awesome. I know with or without being factory supercharged, I for one would be ordering a new one tomorrow if they were to ever offer a V8 in the Ranger Raptor. I like my current Ranger Raptor a lot, I just miss the sweat sounds only a V8 can make.
Admittedly, I've been a Tacoma fanboy since I bought my first Tacoma back in 2004. I currently own a 3rd gen and had every intention of replacing it with the 4th gen until Toyota decided slap a 4cl/hybrid in it. When I'm ready I plan on going with the RR instead.
Full factory warranty, its a no brainer. Already the top dog in this segment. This will only increase the gap. Can't wait for the review and testing.

Yea, I was thinking the same thing. I am thinking the 4 banger turbos in the GM and Toyota's would be hard pressed to ever to get them to produce that sort of power reliably anyway.
If you want to make lot of money cheaper is the way to go. Since people like to copy other people. Look at Toyota is was top because it was cheapest most reliable truck and if other truck company can do that they will be come most bought truck
@@kabloosh699 yeah, that 2.7 isn't touching this at 310 hp stock.
Does the discount only apply to people that attend the rally? I thought it said owners in general.
As a Raptor owner, I care more about suspension than horsepower. I have a tuned eco boost with plenty of power that tune on the bronco and Ranger is plenty of juice. They don’t need to worry about what Dodge is doing as long as their suspension does what they say the trucks are for
Agree, plenty of power already. The real magic is the suspension. Over high speed washboard, it’s the best riding truck I’ve ever driven. Ford nailed suspension design and tune, IMHO.
Will the transmission cope with the extra torque?
Andre you are an audio nightmare! 😂 clapping, hitting your mic.
This is AWESOME!
What about Explorer ST? It’s got the same engine.
Hope they also increase the cooling. Separate oil and transmission coolers would be smart.
The nano has an engine oil cooler and transmission cooler already.
Will it be available for European markets as well?
You guys mention the toasted test. You need to put the obd reader in the trucks and data log torque while pulling that hill. I bet most of these trucks are not using anywhere near their maximum output.
Guys.. please do dyno test before and after tuning 🙏
Smokes the taco in every spec haha
Andre and Case - maybe you should pull off the Go Fast Camper for your test before and after, and then put it back on for a before and after
Getting ready to move to Colorado in the spring this may have sealed me getting the Ranger Raptor when we move 😊
Careful which area you move to with the increased violence in certain areas
So TFL... what are you hearing about the 555 TQ on a 10r60 that has max 463 tq as its listed or (600nm)
Just own it under warranty, then dump it.
@waynewallace2061 this is the only correct answer!!
That's how you stay on top.
Ordered a tuner for the. Ranger Raptor yesterday. I was told by ford performance that they will be shipping out in a couple days.
What site?
@@lupehn ordered through an authorized ford performance dealer. Hillbank Motor Corp. is the shop that will install the tune to maintain the warrantee.
@@lupehnI called an authorized ford performance shop to order it.
Now, they need to offer it on the Powerboost.
It’s crazy. Great truck but sticking to my jeep gladiator 2022 that I paid 44k for when I they were letting them go for cheap. Keeping the truck but the bronco raptor is my want but dang the prices.
How about the Explorer st ? Same motor.
Can't wait to see the cost of a taillight repair/replacement
That’s going to be a lot of at stress on that powertrain
Not really
Absolutely but the computer can vector the torque output to keep from overstressing the drive train components, plenty of new vehicles do that.
Pretty sure the Ford engineers thought of that for them to offer a warranty
Wondering if this upgrade negatively affects the Ford extended warranty I bought through Grainger?
Don't tell them.
Ford sells a tune for the 2.7 Ecoboost Bronco and it requires premium fuel. I am guessing this also requires it. Still a very cool upgrade!
I love that Ford offers power updates at an affordable price. It shows their dedication to their performance junky customers.
Best midsize truck on the market & the Colorado ZR2/Canyon AT4X are a distant 2nd place.
I don’t even see the Tacoma as beating the Frontier when price is factored. The segment has changed dramatically.
Do you have any drag races videos of this ranger raptor vs other midsize and full size trucks?
This is great as it won't void warranty... however, the rest of us can go with aftermarket tuners, OZ, MPT to name a couple, and get a performance tune, ex: 93x tune from MPT, and get much higher numbers than a 50 hourse gain...
Warranty?
Honestly, I wouldn’t trust most of those guys to make a truly safe tune. I ran tunes from 4 different companies on my F150 and, once I learned how to tune it myself and started really datalogging and looking closer at the tunes, they were not great. They could have made way better and safer tunes.
Sounds good but I am betting that to get those performance numbers it will be premium fuel only are you willing to pay that penalty at the gas pump ?
The stock Ranger Raptor numbers are already on premium fuel, so obviously this is too.
Are you willing to pay $57k plus tax title and registration only to whine about premium fuel? 😂
Hopefully there is a tune coming for the European version. 288hp isn't enough.
Makes me wish I had a Ranger Raptor
If anyone is interested I have an appointment this afternoon with my local dealer for the tune, I can shoot by uwharrie and do a timed run on the OHV course before and after the upgrade. I can post the times here if you want.
What about explorers or Lincolns with similar engine?
*what happens to your fuel economy with this tune ?, does it lower it by a lot?*
Yes
Depends on how heavy your right foot is. If you drive normally before and after, I bet it'll be more or less the same. Some vehicles even gain slightly more mpg after getting an aftermarket tune. Since this is a factory certified tune, it should maintain the same level of mpg, as long as its driven normally
who cares
@@HoneyBadgerFarm people who don’t want to buy more gas probably.
Who gives gives a shit
Did you notice it’s actually 49 state? I just looked at it on fords website, the explorer ST has a flash too but it’s only 430 hp but it’s 50 state
Good find. Yeah would kinda suck not to be able to purchase this if you lived in CA.
I've been telling everyone the nano architecture is beast!!
had this on my ranger.. do a cold air , charge pipes and blowoff and you at 600 pounds and 480hp
Toaster Test the Ranger Raptor
Always Alliterate.
It's not a heavy duty tow vehicle, why abuse it like that.
my guess is eco boast engine once tuned you have to run 91 or better i believe so your fuel rating takes a hit with the tune
Likely about 4 lbs of boost. The cost probably covers the extra warranty repairs.
Thats what I was thinking. The cost is less about the tune, and more about padding the warranty.
I am 100% with Kase on wanting to see Ford to shove a Coyte in there.
That would be awesome.
I know with or without being factory supercharged, I for one would be ordering a new one tomorrow if they were to ever offer a V8 in the Ranger Raptor.
I like my current Ranger Raptor a lot, I just miss the sweat sounds only a V8 can make.
They should just make it the standard power
Probably will in the 2025 models.
Does this factory tune applies worldwide? or just US? I am located in Thailand. please confirm. Than you very much
Can this tune be applied to the 2024 ranger raptor from Europe and the rest of the world?
Admittedly, I've been a Tacoma fanboy since I bought my first Tacoma back in 2004. I currently own a 3rd gen and had every intention of replacing it with the 4th gen until Toyota decided slap a 4cl/hybrid in it. When I'm ready I plan on going with the RR instead.
I worked out a few wrinkles learning this:)
With all that horsepower, you can get to the dealer in no time to get your recalls fixed.
Does this tune come with a transmission tune as well?
It mentions shifting changes.
