13.1 without upgraded turbos and mild bolt-ons is actually not shabby at all for this pig of a truck. SCREW weight too? I haven’t looked up the difference between Crew and SCREW but I’m sure there is enough to make a little difference.

I’m really debating on building the motor and upgrading the turbos but might just wait and see what E85 and injectors along with all the other bolt-ons will do. The motor should be good for quite a bit more power than what we are used to seeing around here. I don’t know about our trans and clutch though but have seen a trans cooler on the market so that’s a start in that department.

You've already got the tune covered.

I'd explore a intercooler, turbo adapters, and catted downpipes as mods that will make the biggest gains. A full cat-back exhaust and upgraded cold air intake will continue to help her breathe easier.

Deaver leaf springs will also help eliminate rear axle wrap and improve launches.

If you're interested in any of the above, please let me know and we'd be happy to put a package together for you.

Easy starters as stated. Here is mine

MPT prx 93 tune
SPD turbo adapters
kooks downpipe
magnaflow full exhaust
Air Raid CAI
AFE intercooler(you can go full race if you want a little more)
colder plugs sp2450

All these are fairly simple bolt ons that will get you close. I have not run any dyno numbers or 1/4 mile but i bet i am close. After that your upgrading turbos. Some guy on here did it, but hasnt given any numbers.

In talking with MPT, you might consider a water methanol Kit with there tune to go with it. I have been very temped but haven't pulled a lever yet. There are many kits, they recommended AEM-30-3300

They stated, aside from there regular tune or a full turbo set up the next biggest gain in HP would me a water **** kit w/ tune for the kit. I am hoping someone with more experience can comment on this. I would love to see some Raptors in the 12s

Thanks for the posts related to my Raptor

Thanks for all the posts pertinent to the Raptor. For a while there, I thought I was in the wrong forum. Anyway, you've given me several things to think about. I'm still listening if anyone has any other ideas/comments on a Raptor build to help me reach my goals.

I'm planning to get a dyno soon to establish a baseline so I can see exactly what I'm getting for the mods I make as I make them. I'll keep everyone posted. I'll load the MPT Tune after the first pull is done and dyno it again to see what MPT actually did for me. Then, I plan to either take it to the drag strip and/or move on to the next mod and do the timed 1/4 mile later.

Ryan brown motor works will get you there

[/COLOR]The "Welcome" page of Brown Motor works has 4 paragraphs. In each paragraph, he makes the point that they work on "Volvo, Mini Cooper, Mercedes, BMW or Lexus" If he works on Ford, he must be embarrassed to say so, lol. Either that or I was on the wrong Brown Motor Works web page.
