[QUOTE="OPT PRIME, post: 1296270, member: 24166"] Guys here is the reality. Stock Raptor: 122HP/L Tuned Raptor: 151HP/L Stock 2019 911 Turbo: 142HP/L A fellow instructor of mine had a Turbo 996 that saw a track weekend for over ten years, north of 20,000 track miles when he sold the vehicle with the original engine still in place. A new engine for the Porsche is 5x as much money and puts down less HP/L than a tuned Ecoboost. The reality, Ford has NOT figured out a way to make a $6000 (1/5th the cost) engine reliable at those power levels, no one can. The material selection, testing and assembly procures are wildly different. I honestly feel the stock raptor is marginal at 450 and seeing all the problems here wish I had NOT tuned the engine. That being said I will be ordering a long block ahead of the curve and shoving one into the corner of my garage for when mine goes, that day is coming. Round two is going to have a a better lubrication system. [/QUOTE]
