[QUOTE="Badgertits, post: 1377273, member: 31322"] typically I have thousands in mods ordered before I even take a new ride home, but since this was my first new Ford & factory boosted vehicle I wanted to take my time do some research & put some miles on before doing anything. I also paid for 100k extended factory warranty & this is my DD so While I def wanna Tap into that extra power I don’t want to do so @ the expense of reliability/driveability/warranty coverage. Also want to stay within $2000 budget This is what I’ve planned out. Mishimoto intercooler - like that it’s in stock location w/ no real modification to the truck, shouldn’t raise eyebrows @ the dealer. Gearhead tune + tuner (I’m guessing they use Ngauge?) Mishimoto tranny cooler- I believe Raptors already have a tranny cooler from factory, but while it’s supposedly normal to break 200+ degrees I can’t imagine running cooler wouldn’t extend the life/performance of the transmission. Cobb drop in air filter Colder spark plugs- what is recommended? I’ve seen guys running them gapped @ .025 - .028 vs factory .030, what brand NGK? Do they come pre-gapped @ those measurements? Relocate front license plate allow more air to intercooler I’ve got 10k miles on the truck so far w/o a hiccup & will be taking it on a 2000 mile road trip next week- gonna order parts while on vacation & get em installed after.
