[QUOTE="smurfslayer, post: 1828294, member: 21926"] The intake isn’t the choke point on the Raptors, it’s actually pretty efficient as stock intakes go. Ditto the exhaust. Unless you swap downpipes, nobody I’m aware of has posted a dyno chart showing hp or tq gains with any exhaust mod on the Gen 2 Raptor. Even the turbo outlet flange, but there is a regular 3.5TT dyno chart showing an increase. If there were any gains to be had with these items --without-- a tune, there would be plenty of proof floating around. Also, if the ECU shows it was tuned, even before the current owner had it, there’s no coverage from Ford factory or the ESP if they discover it - and they will for any kind of powertrain failure. That said, you don’t see a bunch of horror stories of broken hard parts or what not from tuned Raptors. Most of the supporting vendor tuners value their customers and reputation, so they invest effort and care into providing tunes that will survive and not harm the truck. [/QUOTE]
