[QUOTE="Jmorris, post: 1223607, member: 25093"] I believe I read somewhere that you are in the northeast. I live in Texas where it hits 100+ with high humidity. Take a stroll down to Texas in August and I feel you will have a different experience. Just an assumption of mine based off my own personal experience. As I have already stated. I’m not questioning this truck tuned making 450whp on the rollers. I’m saying it won’t make that power in real world application in high heat/high humidity conditions. These ecoboost motors are known for heatsoaking even stock. As to the statement of my truck being the problem. I logged my wife’s 17 raptor on same road same conditions. Logged same results as mine stock to stock. IAT on both stock trucks would climb up into the 150’s on hard pulls to 100. Tuned my truck would reach IAT in the 160-170’s and stop accelerating by 105. We can talk logs dyno numbers etc all day.... I care about how it all translates to pavement. I have multiple logs and several videos if you really want proof of what I’m saying. As to me “Spouting off at the mouth” Switzer performance describes almost word for word what I experienced. And I quote.... "2017 Raptor Update: We have been slowly pushing things up and evaluating everything patiently as we go. We are now approaching the 550lb ft mark to the tires and approx 540whp on the dyno.
