Anyone care to speculate what the raptor ecoboost will put down with intake,tune, and possibly a downpipe? From what I know the cats and cat back wont be limiting this system much.

I'd say with downpipes, catback, intake and tune, could likely see 550WHP
550 at the wheels sounds like a lot with just those mods. I didn't follow what the first 3.5 eco's gained with those mods so I have no idea and am just asking. But wouldn't that have to be about a 200 hp gain at the motor to put 550 at the wheels?
I'm thinking with the true duals on the new Raptor that exhaust may not gain much.
What type of gains did the downpipe give on the gen 1 eco?
I'm anxious to see the dyno results today for the SPD exhaust adapters. Did you see those? They open a piece of the exhaust right at the turbos which increases airflow capacity by 25%. Claims are around 25 hp with no tune required.
Its pretty impressive what even a simple tune, intake, and some exhaust bits can do to a turbo motor especially one with dual injection.
Catless ups, downs, better intake, and a tune can do a lot.

I know the turbo motors have good potential with just the tune. But man I never realized they could have that much potential.
That would be some crazy fun power for a Raptor.
My problem is I'm afraid to do much that would affect my warranty. My luck I'd be that guy that smokes a transmission or finds the weak point of the motor and it pops.
I'm a player for those turbo adapters though. If they gain 20 hp and are just a bolt on item that doesn't require a tune, I'm in. There is a link to a dyno sheet from those adapters on a 16 ecoboost that showed a good solid 20 hp gain and 15 - 17 lb ft tq increase across the entire rpm range. There is a guy on another forum doing a back to back dyno test on them today to see if those claims hold true.

Darin, I did see those. Any idea how difficult they are to get in? Looks easy, but hard to tell how much room there is to work down where they are located.
The previous ecoboost gained around an average of 100hp and 115tq with just an intake and a tune, who knows how much this HO motor wakes up with the same bits.
