These vehicles are converted here in Australia. Several companies do this however like everything some do a great job and some don't. This is one of the good ones.
So anyone interested in an update on this issue. The previous owner had installed a catch can to the passenger side of the engine (between the PCV valve and the blower) however he also T this into the vacuum line on the drivers side (between the rocker cover and intake tube) resulting in the...
They look like 37", do you have any rubbing. I have the same offset wheel with 35" and had to trim the inside front liner and frame to stop rubbing on full lock turns, especially if the suspension is compressed.
You are correct, the in gear idle should be about 725rpm. I recently fitted the 69mm pulley, JDM tune and Cobrajet throttle body however the problem was pre-existing. I have been emailing Jim for advise and he has been very helpful. I suspect I have a vacuum leak below the blower. I had a tech...
I have an issue with the idle on my 2013 F150 Raptor.
Symptoms:
Cold start idle is 1800rpm then after about 20 sec will drop to 1200rpm
In gear idle is about 800rpm
Deceleration sometimes the idle drops almost to stall then back to 800rpm
When hot after driving return to park and idle about...
I am on my third supercharged F150. My 5.0L Whipple used by far the least amount of "gas" and had the most blower whine. Both my 6.2L had Roush and were sadly too quiet, they average 13mpg (and I get a speeding ticket almost monthly). Though I didn't buy any of them with fuel consumption a...
I had a 2013 with Roush SC and the smallest pulley from VMP, minimal whine. Then got a F150 Shelby with the Whipple, lots of whine. Just got another 2013 with a 6.6L Livernois Powerstorm engine and Roush SC, can't hear the whine at all. My understanding is that the design of the vanes in the TVS...
I had a 2013 Gen 1. Purchased new here in Aus and traded it about 2 years ago. Got my money back on it. Awesome truck and in a lot of ways wish i still had it now. They are still holding good value here second hand.
Well done and congrats.
If you have the supercharger fitted i would suggest pulling the plugs to check condition and perhaps replacing them, plug gap is critical on a charged engine. Remember you have a twin plug engine so that's 16 sparklers. Carry a spare belt and a 1/2" breaker bar so you can...
When it blows, and it will happen the fuse holder and surrounds will melt, making it a bigger job than it needs to be plus you will have a slightly melted fuse box where the #27 goes. Just do it your self or find someone to do it.
They are really 2 totally different vehicles. I bought a Raptor because it had all the high performance bits on it and looked awesome. i had no intention of ever going off road so it was a waste of a good vehicle really. I sold it and the new owner blew up the engine within a month towing a 7t...
We think everything is expensive down under...
The Ranger Raptor is about $AUD78k.
Super duties are about $AUD150k upwards depending the model and spec, F150 Raptor is about $AUD200k, Shelby F150 is $AUD250k and the Shelby Raptor is $AUD295k.
Having said that, the resales on these trucks here...
We have the F trucks here in Australia, but they are not imported through Ford Australia, are in extremely low volume, and expensive.
The Ranger here is made in Thailand, and all variants are Diesel.
Here in Australia we have to fit amber LED indicators into the bumper to comply with local regulations. The OEM tail light then has the Brake, Night time Red and the White reverse light.
