I'm 64 yrs old and have been driving both Chevy and Ford pickup trucks since the 70s. I've always dreamed about having a truck that got truly good milage along with good power. Now I have a 2019 XLT 3.5 ecoboost max tow package, and I have to say it's the most powerful and fuel efficient truck I've owed to date. So far I'm very impressed with it.
@@MrRGiller I'm in Minnesota and it's a 230 mile round trip to the cabin and back. Without a trailer and going 70 on the freeway and 65 on the highway I get an honest 24 mpg. If I drive trying to get the best mpg I can get I've gotten 25.5, that's a round trip number. Keep in mind if I'm pulling a trailer with a couple 4 wheelers and gear I get about 18 mpg, still much better than my Silverado. Nothing against Chevy, I drove that truck for 10 years and 150,000 miles with minimal repairs. I went with Ford in part this time for the aluminum body, they salt the shit outta the roads in winter. We'll see how the Ford looks after 10 years....Chevy was getting rusty.
The 1988 turbo coupe had a 2.3 liter engine. There is a racer (drag) that is using that engine and producing 1,000 + hp. Makes you wonder how much you can get out of the 3.5 engine.
@@AnontheGOAT you’re assuming nothing has ever broken on the truck in those 50k miles. And do you think 5 star would even share that info to make their tune look bad? 😂
@@officialyasir I mean yes and no. Eventually people would stay clear if the tubes broke the trucks. My BiL has had their tune in his F-150 for years. No issues.
The real question is how much money did it cost to make that power on the 2.7L im sure more then 5k they only talk about power but not how much money it takes to get there divide hp vs money and see if its worth it or go with the coyote and supercharger
I have a 5 Star E50 tune on my 2018 Platinum 3.5 EB. Been running it pretty much since I bought it. Now has 26,000 miles and not a single issue. 5 Star knows these trucks and engines VERY well!
Andre, these tuning companies do a great job. Thanks for another great video! I personally went with Livernois Motorsports for my 2016 F150 2.7 Ecoboost. At the time on the forums, the experts were saying Livernois. They have lifetime support and custom tuned my transmission for me to suit my wants and needs. The 2.7 is such a capable engine. I use the Michelin Premier LTX - the stickiest touring tires I could find and it still breaks them loose! The engine holds 20lbs of boost from about 2,000 RPM to the redline and it is fast! 0-60 is just over 5 seconds if I can get it to hook up! I have towed 7,000lbs with my 8.5 x 20 enclosed trailer plus people and cargo in the truck with a towing tune and it works fantastically. A custom tune really wakes these trucks up even though they are already good.
Had my Expedition tuned by 5 Star. Their customer service is excellent. I've had to call them once or twice and they're on it. Their tunes are very street able, and make excellent power.
I have been a V8 truck guy for 25 years from my first full size 1989 k5 blazer to my 02 Tahoe LT then a 05 Sierra pro sport to a 2011 Sierra Max Terrain all V8s. Now I have a 17 explorer sport with the 3.5 twin turbo and it's a BEAST Just turned 62k and it's never been to the dealer. Only thing I have done is a new battery recently and rear brakes. Full synthetic every 4-5K 👌and she purrs like a kitten.
Still wanna get a tune for my 16 crew cab 2.7 but even from the factory those little 2.7L engines are an animal. It's the only vehicle I've ever owned that will break the tires loose from a roll. I love it
The mad scientist at 5 Star Tuning are absolutely nutz!!! If you met the good ole boy Josh out at a store you’d be fooled into thinking just a nice great old boy, not a clue to the evil genius that is behind the facade. I’m old and don’t want a my 2.7 to run that fast, but nice knowing the wizards at 5 Star could substantially increase my trucks performance,
I've lived in Arkansas most my adult life. Tuner/repair shops with guys like that are usually legit. He ain't wearing bracelets and skinny jeans...buy he knows what he is doing.
Does the transmission shift faster when you are babying it? I just got an 18 2.7 with the 10 speed and I drive slow... I don't drive the truck like a car so I don't want car like "butter shifts" wearing out the clutches. I really want a tune just to firm up the shifts.
Can you imagine getting someone lining up next to either of these trucks at a light thinking they will easily leave them in the dust? What a sleeper. I just wonder how much longer the drivetrains and driveline components can continue taking this much power.
This is definitely impressive. I'm loving the level detail these guys go to to get as much power out of these engines as possible. Only thing I wanna know now is where they got some of the accent pieces for the truck. Specifically that lower door trim with F150 embossed on it and who makes those wheels.
I can’t wait to get my 3.5 tuned! I was always a dodge guy but thought if I ever get a ford it’s gotta be the ecoboost actually got a 3.5 and love it now! Not sure if it’s got more power then my 5.7 hemi but I enjoy this more with better gas and I know with the turbos the potential is there to smoke that hemi
I have a low mileage stock 2019 Ford F150 with the eco-boost and I’m taking it to the dragstrip this Friday. I’m mostly there to have fun but will be shooting video with my GoPro‘s for my new TH-cam channel. But I’m curious how much horsepower the stock drive train can handle. I know my old Duramax had a reputation for tearing up the front end if you launched in four-wheel-drive with much of a tune at all so I never tried it. I doubt this will get answered, but I wonder what modifications were made to the drivetrain of the truck in this video I will be getting the five star tune, and may be a few other mild modifications, and documenting them on my TH-cam channel. But it will be my new one, not this one, called That Kilted Guy Creates
I mean lately ford has been doing a good job with transmissions. Even the mt 82 which my mustang has is good if you get a non defective one. For example my EcoBoost mustang is tuned and makes more horsepower than a stock gt of the same year. If I had a Subaru I would be in trouble because those transmissions are only designed for 300 horsepower where my mustang came with the same transmission as a 5.0. check out the forums but I'm pretty sure trucks would follow the same formula. Also I was going to tell you many of those transmissions that break like the ones in the dodges experience damage from a violent initial acceleration. I've heard that if you ease into it at the start and then gun it makes a huge difference. Lots of people I guess get these high horsepower builds and then floor it and dump it in all-wheel drive which is really hard on the gears. It's the same principle as towing someone with a strap or a chain. If I get a run with slack it's going to break my strap but if I get tension on it and then go at it I should be okay.
Thank you guys so much for producing some more Ford videos it’s really the only product I’m interested in as I’m there stockholder in this business and a long time Ford guy I watch all of your stuff but I really do appreciate seeing all the stuff you’re doing with the Ford lineup thank you again
@@joetool4016 so boost it a bit and make 800-900 with very little stress on the engine. ecoboost engines are cool and all, but the displacement limits the amount of power they can make reliably long term.
I agree, my na 3.7 has 12mpg combined just equipped with tools for work, i bet the Coyote would do better, and that's why i don't like small engines in trucks... in Mustang, Edge even Explorer, but not heavier
@@tallll70 my 3.5 is averaging 14.9mpg over the past 10,000 miles with 6500 miles towing a trailer. last long distance trip it was getting 22mpg on the highway. its a super crew 6.5bed 4x4
@@enigma9789 That's certainly better, i guess you have 10 speed, they much better, real world mpg test on flat 50 mile towing 7000 LB with 3.5 eco 6 speed ended up 8.5 mpg on both display and gas calculated
@@tallll70 Yes I have a 2019 with the 10 speed. My trailer goes from about 6000lbs down to 2200 empty, I am unloading and reloading as I go so its not always full weight and not always empty.
My 3.5 stock walks away from rams 5.7 Hemi. It's so funny taking those big ol V8s to gapplebees, they never expect it 😂. Can't wait to start tuning her!
Everyone is always comparing the coyotes to these ecoboosts, yeah we alll get it, but to say that they are junk is not 100% accurate and probably based on your experience or a friends, but most likely when people complain about there truck on social media. There are MANY in the higher HP range at 100k mile or more but as i said youll see more complaints than praise. As for the sound of these.....well i can't argue that lol
It’s not complicated. Until you get comfortable spending $7k or more to supercharge a v8, the ecoboosts’ performance can’t be touched $ for $. They are good engines for sure, but it’s not like they are made of gold (technically that would be a terrible idea, but you get the metaphor). Tuneability is just the inherent advantage of a modern turbocharged engine. It’s simply amazing what you can get out of them for under $1k. But if money is no object for keyboard warriors then duh: the 5.0 or any other big displacement v8 can be made to shame these little ecoboosts. But I live in the real world, where I’m very thankful this is possible.
I agree. I have a 2012 3.5L that I tow a 7k trailer about 2x a month(I know not alot) and is sitting over 205k. Still runs and other than a quarter size rust on cab corner, still looks new inside and out. I have a 16gtpp mustang so I dont lean 1 way or the other.
They’re just different. It all depends on what you want to do with your truck. I’m planning on eventually getting a Coyote because I will be living in a very rural area and I will be doing all of the maintenance myself. I also love the sound and the overall power of V8s. My cousin’s getting an ecoboost. My dad will as well. I currently have a 99 with the 4.6, and I’m happy with it. However, I would eventually like to have a newer F-150 as well, specifically, one with a Coyote and a salvage title.
You have a great point, my dad’s f-250 (2006) 6.0 obviously; people hear that and screech and holler but I haven’t seen another one hit 470k miles and running😳 however it is deleted
Great vid as always Andre. They do a great job tuning and are obviously very knowledgable. I have been through custom tuning with my car. It turned into a two year trip to get it right.
@@elchucofried5683 Might just be a simple stage 1 chip and several hundred dollars. I have a Livernois tune on my 3.5 and I only did them over 5-star because it's Michigan and I live here. But just that tune is even a bit silly as it slews rear end shifting into 3rd. It seems I hear lots good and the very little bad things with Livernois and 5-star maybe someone knows more than me. I Din't want a grenade--that's for sure. This truck has been RUN and no issues.
No surprise here. Spend enough $ and you can modify, build or create/change anything to be faster. But for those that don't know, this content is informative. :)
I have a tune only Raptor and the tune alone really woke up the ecoboost! I couldn't imagine an almost 700whp eco! The exhaust note IMO doesn't sound too bad, kind of like a grand national/SyTy. Watching this makes me want to go further into the performance mods on my raptor lol
Hey Tyler, I have a 2020 Raptor and have been thinking about tuning the it. Your post was a year ago just thought I would ask to see how the engine is doing?
@@Captain-Awesome I turned it back to stock in the meantime due to the cam phasers need replaced. Once everything is done I will be putting the tune back onto my truck. Only damage the tune is doing is wearing out my rear tires! lol. But then engine itself ran like a champ minus the well known 3.5 cam phaser failure
We have a 300 I6 in our 83 Bronco, its not exactly the most powerful, but its got a ton of low end torque, and the engines were built strong for heavy duty applications
I have a 2018 STX 4x4 with the 2.7L ecoboost. Watching these trucks make this much power is great to see. However, I want to see these trucks after 150,000 miles. I am hesitant to tune my truck because I fully expect to drive this truck at least 200,00 miles. If my fears are baseless, I might end up with the fastest truck on Onslow County. I just need to be convinced a tuned truck will last that long.
The ecoboost is an impressive motor. But with the list of things done to that 3.5 to get that power you could get a 5.0 truck with a supercharger and tune on pump gas and be faster. The ecoboost is making that power on e85. Very hard to find in some states. Every state has 91 or 93.
@@damonrgibson theres is i guy i know that owns an eco crewcab fx4 and running into the 11s 1/4 with just boltons and im impressed. Cant hate them ecos not even the 2.7
I'm not fan of performance tuning but this video does highlight how well Ford engineered this engine. You can't deny how strong the internals are. 50,000 miles? I'm amazed it pulled that dyno run without a major failure.
You have to keep in mind there is a lot lighter parts on the rotating and redirection parts. So screaming these engines don’t come close to blowing up as big iron does. But I have to say there is no replacement for displacement/carbureted Especially when it comes to sound and independent turning/repair.
@@RyanH.Parker you know at the end of the day it’s all about the driving experience. Nothing sounds as good as a carbureted V8. No computers or electronics, just your right foot. I recently rented a Tesla and while the acceleration is out of this world, I could only siding it as soulless. No emission at all. I was bored with the feeling pretty quick.
@@freeride202 I hear ya. I’m only 38 years old but I feel like I’m getting older saying this. The new generation is a different soulless breed and Teslas do nothing for the type of women I’m into and nothing for my “juice flow”😂
Awesome work! Incredible numbers! I know in the performance world one isn't supposed to be super worried about the life of the motor however I have to wonder what this does to the life of the motor. When I get my F150 (soon) I will be hitting up 5 Star for some good but I don't want that motor to die a very early death.
It depends on who you talk too. A stock ecoboost well maintained easily goes 3-400,000 miles .... how far will this one go ? I am on my second 3.5 ecoboost, my first one was amazing, diesel towing power in a gas half ton pickup . My new 2020 isn’t broken in yet I’ll start pulling with it shortly...I leave mine alone stock is plenty and I kinda like the lifetime powertrain warranty I got with mine..
I wish I could find my comment from several years ago before tfl started testing tuned trucks, I literally told them over and over to review tuned and simple bolt ons so people could see real world performance and turns out I was right, now they afte dedicated entire videos to it and have really grown the channel, I'm pretty sure they owe me a tune or least a discount on one of their test vehicles lol, side note them EcoBoost trucks are down right fast for a full size truck, that's supercharged V8 power levels!! And you will never guess who gave Ford that idea
That is supposedly replacing the 5.0 and is just a mini 7.3 it was going to come out a few years ago but had problems with the flow according to an engineer inside ford
@@MrGameing101 But why does the 5.0 need replacing, its competitive with the competition, maybe its the turbo 3.5 that needs replacing as the top offering in a half ton. And why a new ICE engine when electrics are supposed to be taking over? Lots of questions.
@@gabrielback5615 it's not replacing the coyote. The 6.8L is going to be offered as a special one off model and possibly a crate engine. What that means? A possible Boss platform mustang returning, and an all motor V8 performance F150 in my books.
Three weeks ago I drove a 3.5 Ecoboost truck first and then a 5.0 truck. Honestly the 5.0 felt weak next to the Ecoboost because of all that torque down low. The 5.0 may last longer but hell I never keep anything longer than five years anyway. Needless to say I bought the Ecoboost truck.
@@moreuggaduggas except the TRX transmission is made by ZF not FCA and is well known for being reliable even at higher power levels. Do your research before spewing fake news...
When discussing the 2wd truck with the 2.7, I find the comment "13.1" is possible stated by 5 Star very interesting. It makes me feel very good about my truck. I know that they have ran much faster 12.3 in a 2018 up 2.7 2wd Supercrew but it was on a Hoosier with OEM 16 inch light weight wheels so I am assuming that they are referring to a real practical street tire. 2018 up 2.7's have additional fuel injectors, 6 in port and 6 direct injection whereas 15-17 only have direct. The factory fueling capability of the 2018 has an ethanol advantage in stock form compared to the earlier trucks. I have a 2016 Ford F150 Supercrew 4x4 2.7 Ecoboost with 209,xxx miles. It has it's stock original turbos. It is 5 Star e50 tuned and the only fueling upgrade is a VMP boost a pump. It has a CVF catted downpipe, an entry level CVF intercooler, AMS turbo inlet tubes and a S&B intake. Again it has stock turbos. I have ran a dragy 13.1 IN 2WD with a horrible 2.07 60ft time and on a small 255/50R20 all season 560 treadwear tire on the street. No doubt that with a 4wd launch that I can drop all of those et's significantly. I am not currently interested in doing 4wd, it is my goal to run a 12.9 on an EVERYDAY street tire that gets mileage, is safe in bad weather and can handle gravel roads, in 2wd with stock turbos. I currently have the worthless e locker rear differential carrier and I can't lock it in as it stopped working but they weren't great even when working because they disengage at 20mph. So I am launching with an open carrier. I have a Ford Performance Mustang GT locker "requires mod"that I will install soon and hopefully I can get that 12.9 by cutting my 60ft. I am currently leaving at a very low rpm on negative boost. Theres 500 utube videos of 4x4 F150's doing sub 5 second and sub 4 second 0-60 mph times launching in 4wd. I to my knowledge have the only sub 5 second "4.89" 0-60 on the street in 2wd on a regular tire. On a side note,a high percentage of people who "upgrade" thier trucks spend money to increase the power output of the engine and then make counter productive choices when buying wheels and tires. That 3.5 truck has Vorsteiner 20's, a wise choice coming in at 29lbs per wheel. The 2.7 truck has Fuel wheels and a typical 20 inch Fuel weighs 50 and the typical 22 inch Fuel weighs 60lbs. My 20's weigh 29.5. I did alot of research on my tire choice as well and my tire weighs 30. So 59.5 lbs per corner. I bet that 2.7 is carrying a minimum of 90 lbs per corner, probably 100. Reciprocating weight is far worse on performance than sprung weight. Ferrari says 1 pound of additional wheel/tire weight is equal to 6 pounds of sprung weight. Lets just say that 2.7 has 30 more pounds per wheel than my truck. 30x6=180. 180x4=720. So its like he added 720lbs in weight to his truck by making poor choices. So when I add turbos to my truck it will roast that truck?
You guys should revisit the Explorer ST and see what the community is doing with them. My truck has ran a 12.0 and there are already people running 11s in them without upgraded turbos
Especially if you come watch my TH-cam channel where I pass on my 35 years of skills to everybody, LOL. Mostly I’m kidding and just couldn’t help but notice the drywall post.
thats why I call mine the sleeper creeper. 2011 f 150 eco beast , mine is not near as fast as this one but mine did dyno right at 485hp at the tires with few mods new full exhaust front to tip new intercooler cold air intake after m throttle body and a custom 93 tune
Yeah but you got a change/upgrade the turbos on the ford and if you did an exhaust and a tune and an intake and a smaller pulley on the TRX that’s like 800 wheel hp ish
It sure can 😉 However, what many consumers have been wanting back (specifically for the Raptor), was that old fashioned V8 grunt. RAM and the TRX specifically stepped up to those in the market, with its 6.2L supercharged V8. Sure, Ford’s off-road/baja-capable Raptor is quick from the factory, and can be tuned/modified to be even quicker. But overall, consumers wanted the sound of a pissed off V8 while doing what they’re rightfully-so, capable of. The TRX is exactly that, with surpassed capabilities. Not to mention the market to tune and upgrade engine components is already out there, being that it’s a “Hellcat” engine. Consumers will immediately be able to custom tune, increase/implement different fueling systems and octanes, swap pulleys, add larger injectors, superchargers, etc. (All of this is honestly just friendly input). We’re certainly living in exciting times! 🤘🏻 🇺🇸
@@jailman1 Generally speaking, not many at all. I could easily say the same thing about F-150’s and Raptors; everything from the engine block heater, front and rear seat mechanism/components, headlights, rearview mirror/camera, gear position indicator for the transmission, starter assembly, battery cables and electrical system, spare tire bead, lack of implemented roof rivets for structural integrity, the list goes on. Go ahead and look up the recalls. (Now what were you saying about spending half the time getting repaired?)
I don't want to own either of these engines past 150k miles when things start to wear out, but I've got to say I'm impressed with the performance potential here. Never would have guessed it for the 2.7L.
I know people who have money and lots of horsepower with lots of problems. I also know people with lots of brains and understanding of mechanical parts also with a lot of horsepower and minimal problems. It takes good understanding/experience of limitation on what that drive train likes as far as rpm, shifting, temperatures, and so on. Professional race cars are built to take a beating with extreme horsepower but a Joe Schmoe who only knows how to stomp on the gas pedal will easily blow a race car up. Food for thought.
@@RyanH.Parker Okay, but I have a '16 PS with only 70k miles that just got a new turbo to the tune of $4k. You can treat them right (I do) and they still fail expensively. 😅
Ford has knocked it out of the park the past few years mechanically. First with the ecoboost. Very very massed produced with a tiny percentage seeing catastrophic failure, even when tuned . Stock, they've been very reliable, especially as a work horse. Then the gen 3 coyote and a10. That combo is one of the best combos for street, work and race. Amazing what a fbo e85 f150 can do .
Ceratec turbo cleaner liquid and royal purple octane booster were put in 2015 2.7 earlier tonight and it really made a difference. Was experiencing passenger side turbo noise and turbo lag when inherited truck 500 miles ago. No more noise and have acceleration on demand that makes truck go sideways when accelerate to hard during lane changes and sharp turns. Truck said it was getting 11 mpg when I got it, now 16mpg, even when driving like a sport truck. Transmission and differential are a little strange now, wondering what to do to make run better. Flush both?
Does the 2.7 EB get worse mileage towing (VS the coyote 5.0) similar to the 3.5 EB? Ideally I'd like to get modest power improvement with the best towing mileage.
I'm 64 yrs old and have been driving both Chevy and Ford pickup trucks since the 70s. I've always dreamed about having a truck that got truly good milage along with good power. Now I have a 2019 XLT 3.5 ecoboost max tow package, and I have to say it's the most powerful and fuel efficient truck I've owed to date. So far I'm very impressed with it.

Nice!! I run 5 Star tunes on my 2019 F 150 regular cab short box 4x2 with the 2.7 and 10 speed. "wakes up the truck" is an understatement.... :-)
What tune are you running?
@@bradshaw106 91 performance
Does the transmission shift faster when you are babying it? I just got an 18 2.7 with the 10 speed and I drive slow... I don't drive the truck like a car so I don't want car like "butter shifts" wearing out the clutches. I really want a tune just to firm up the shifts.
@@volvo09 You would most likely experience better shifting with a tune.
The front end of the white truck would make a great SVT lightning.
Wheels and decals aren’t to my liking tho.
Can you imagine getting someone lining up next to either of these trucks at a light thinking they will easily leave them in the dust? What a sleeper. I just wonder how much longer the drivetrains and driveline components can continue taking this much power.
This is definitely impressive. I'm loving the level detail these guys go to to get as much power out of these engines as possible. Only thing I wanna know now is where they got some of the accent pieces for the truck. Specifically that lower door trim with F150 embossed on it and who makes those wheels.
I can’t wait to get my 3.5 tuned! I was always a dodge guy but thought if I ever get a ford it’s gotta be the ecoboost actually got a 3.5 and love it now! Not sure if it’s got more power then my 5.7 hemi but I enjoy this more with better gas and I know with the turbos the potential is there to smoke that hemi
Thats honastly impressive for a 2.7l amazing what tuning and a few mods can do
“Turbo era has “begun”” even in USA )))
Nice to see a fast and capable turbocharged trucks , not only a big V8’s.
Ford: please make a twin turbo Coyote.
That would be awesome.
Ford would never do that. High output ecoboosts get them more money, right off the lot and in the service department.
Wouldn't pass EPA without the gas guzzler tax. Plus it would probably cost as much as a V8 Diesel.

Why not the 6.2...or the 7.3?

I have a low mileage stock 2019 Ford F150 with the eco-boost and I’m taking it to the dragstrip this Friday. I’m mostly there to have fun but will be shooting video with my GoPro‘s for my new TH-cam channel. But I’m curious how much horsepower the stock drive train can handle. I know my old Duramax had a reputation for tearing up the front end if you launched in four-wheel-drive with much of a tune at all so I never tried it.
I doubt this will get answered, but I wonder what modifications were made to the drivetrain of the truck in this video
I will be getting the five star tune, and may be a few other mild modifications, and documenting them on my TH-cam channel. But it will be my new one, not this one, called That Kilted Guy Creates
I mean lately ford has been doing a good job with transmissions. Even the mt 82 which my mustang has is good if you get a non defective one. For example my EcoBoost mustang is tuned and makes more horsepower than a stock gt of the same year. If I had a Subaru I would be in trouble because those transmissions are only designed for 300 horsepower where my mustang came with the same transmission as a 5.0. check out the forums but I'm pretty sure trucks would follow the same formula. Also I was going to tell you many of those transmissions that break like the ones in the dodges experience damage from a violent initial acceleration. I've heard that if you ease into it at the start and then gun it makes a huge difference. Lots of people I guess get these high horsepower builds and then floor it and dump it in all-wheel drive which is really hard on the gears. It's the same principle as towing someone with a strap or a chain. If I get a run with slack it's going to break my strap but if I get tension on it and then go at it I should be okay.
Thank you guys so much for producing some more Ford videos it’s really the only product I’m interested in as I’m there stockholder in this business and a long time Ford guy I watch all of your stuff but I really do appreciate seeing all the stuff you’re doing with the Ford lineup thank you again
I like the high performance offroad trucks... But I'd love to see those engines in trucks like the lightning, Lil red express, cyclone, etc...

How much does it cost to go from Ecoboost to Beast?
My 3.5 stock walks away from rams 5.7 Hemi. It's so funny taking those big ol V8s to gapplebees, they never expect it 😂. Can't wait to start tuning her!
My brother has the 5.7, my 3.5 blows it away!
Everyone is always comparing the coyotes to these ecoboosts, yeah we alll get it, but to say that they are junk is not 100% accurate and probably based on your experience or a friends, but most likely when people complain about there truck on social media. There are MANY in the higher HP range at 100k mile or more but as i said youll see more complaints than praise. As for the sound of these.....well i can't argue that lol
Not perfect but sounds way better th-cam.com/video/O_nTpRiuDBY/w-d-xo.html
It’s not complicated. Until you get comfortable spending $7k or more to supercharge a v8, the ecoboosts’ performance can’t be touched $ for $.
They are good engines for sure, but it’s not like they are made of gold (technically that would be a terrible idea, but you get the metaphor). Tuneability is just the inherent advantage of a modern turbocharged engine.
It’s simply amazing what you can get out of them for under $1k. But if money is no object for keyboard warriors then duh: the 5.0 or any other big displacement v8 can be made to shame these little ecoboosts.
But I live in the real world, where I’m very thankful this is possible.
I agree. I have a 2012 3.5L that I tow a 7k trailer about 2x a month(I know not alot) and is sitting over 205k. Still runs and other than a quarter size rust on cab corner, still looks new inside and out. I have a 16gtpp mustang so I dont lean 1 way or the other.
They’re just different. It all depends on what you want to do with your truck. I’m planning on eventually getting a Coyote because I will be living in a very rural area and I will be doing all of the maintenance myself. I also love the sound and the overall power of V8s. My cousin’s getting an ecoboost. My dad will as well. I currently have a 99 with the 4.6, and I’m happy with it. However, I would eventually like to have a newer F-150 as well, specifically, one with a Coyote and a salvage title.
You have a great point, my dad’s f-250 (2006) 6.0 obviously; people hear that and screech and holler but I haven’t seen another one hit 470k miles and running😳 however it is deleted
Great vid as always Andre. They do a great job tuning and are obviously very knowledgable. I have been through custom tuning with my car. It turned into a two year trip to get it right.
When I get my bronco I would like to do this tune but not 500hp maybe around the 430s and 400lb ft of torque.
Unless I'm mistaken the 2.7 Eco already puts about 400 pounds of torque down in stock form.
@@nahrens223 yeah I just checked it does. So then 500 lb ft of torque it is!! But keep the hp in the 400s I want my engine to last.
@@elchucofried5683 Might just be a simple stage 1 chip and several hundred dollars. I have a Livernois tune on my 3.5 and I only did them over 5-star because it's Michigan and I live here. But just that tune is even a bit silly as it slews rear end shifting into 3rd. It seems I hear lots good and the very little bad things with Livernois and 5-star maybe someone knows more than me. I Din't want a grenade--that's for sure. This truck has been RUN and no issues.
@@tomtraynor5384 thats what I was thinking and even put a nice cool air intake. Do exhaust and new turbos later.
@James M yeah😂
No surprise here. Spend enough $ and you can modify, build or create/change anything to be faster. But for those that don't know, this content is informative. :)
Andre, I love you, please NEVER stand in front of the vehicle when it’s on the dyno.
I'll have to look 5 Star Tuning on the web. Seriously considering the 2.3L Ecoboost in the new Bronco. Great video, Andre!
Get the 2.7 bro
I have a tune only Raptor and the tune alone really woke up the ecoboost! I couldn't imagine an almost 700whp eco! The exhaust note IMO doesn't sound too bad, kind of like a grand national/SyTy. Watching this makes me want to go further into the performance mods on my raptor lol
Hey Tyler, I have a 2020 Raptor and have been thinking about tuning the it. Your post was a year ago just thought I would ask to see how the engine is doing?
@@Captain-Awesome I turned it back to stock in the meantime due to the cam phasers need replaced. Once everything is done I will be putting the tune back onto my truck. Only damage the tune is doing is wearing out my rear tires! lol. But then engine itself ran like a champ minus the well known 3.5 cam phaser failure
Andre, could you incorporate cost for upgrades in your reports. Ty
You know the old saying.. if you have to ask, you don’t wanna know.
Man! These guys really know what they’re doin!!!
I was thinking about getting a tundra and supercharging it, but after seeing the potential of the Ecoboost, I'm definitely going Ford
2.7 sounds like the old 4.9 300 i6 (best Ford engine ever built...... Chevy fan)
Tower of power
As an owner of a 300, it really doesnt
We have a 300 I6 in our 83 Bronco, its not exactly the most powerful, but its got a ton of low end torque, and the engines were built strong for heavy duty applications
I have a 3.5L in my F-150 & it has plenty of power, but this is really impressive work.
I have a 2018 STX 4x4 with the 2.7L ecoboost. Watching these trucks make this much power is great to see. However, I want to see these trucks after 150,000 miles. I am hesitant to tune my truck because I fully expect to drive this truck at least 200,00 miles. If my fears are baseless, I might end up with the fastest truck on Onslow County. I just need to be convinced a tuned truck will last that long.
The ecoboost is an impressive motor. But with the list of things done to that 3.5 to get that power you could get a 5.0 truck with a supercharger and tune on pump gas and be faster. The ecoboost is making that power on e85. Very hard to find in some states. Every state has 91 or 93.
I own a 19 fx4 with a 5.0, it will take more money to make as fast as 3.5 eco with bolt ons. Hopefully i get to Whipple mine soon.
@@jesusmorinjr.8408 if you put the same amount of money they put into that eco boost to get 699 hp that 5.0 would smoke it.

@@damonrgibson theres is i guy i know that owns an eco crewcab fx4 and running into the 11s 1/4 with just boltons and im impressed. Cant hate them ecos not even the 2.7
How long will those engines last if you keep running them hard daily? Wonder if the transmission will last?
Or the head gaskets
It's nice to be fast, but it's important to always be stable on the road.👍
I'm not fan of performance tuning but this video does highlight how well Ford engineered this engine. You can't deny how strong the internals are. 50,000 miles? I'm amazed it pulled that dyno run without a major failure.
Agree
You have to keep in mind there is a lot lighter parts on the rotating and redirection parts. So screaming these engines don’t come close to blowing up as big iron does. But I have to say there is no replacement for displacement/carbureted Especially when it comes to sound and independent turning/repair.
@@RyanH.Parker you know at the end of the day it’s all about the driving experience. Nothing sounds as good as a carbureted V8. No computers or electronics, just your right foot. I recently rented a Tesla and while the acceleration is out of this world, I could only siding it as soulless. No emission at all. I was bored with the feeling pretty quick.
@@freeride202 I hear ya. I’m only 38 years old but I feel like I’m getting older saying this. The new generation is a different soulless breed and Teslas do nothing for the type of women I’m into and nothing for my “juice flow”😂
Who would of ever thought that a 6 cyl would be able to put out ao much power and torque
90's supra builds made well over 1000 hp with a 6
Awesome work! Incredible numbers!
I know in the performance world one isn't supposed to be super worried about the life of the motor however I have to wonder what this does to the life of the motor. When I get my F150 (soon) I will be hitting up 5 Star for some good but I don't want that motor to die a very early death.
At what point do they reach the limit of the stock internals and transmission? That's crazy power!
Im wondering the same thing.
It depends on who you talk too. A stock ecoboost well maintained easily goes 3-400,000 miles .... how far will this one go ? I am on my second 3.5 ecoboost, my first one was amazing, diesel towing power in a gas half ton pickup . My new 2020 isn’t broken in yet I’ll start pulling with it shortly...I leave mine alone stock is plenty and I kinda like the lifetime powertrain warranty I got with mine..
Stock 3.5 internals have held up under 1400hp on many applications.
@@steveyork8069 I dont think anyone at RMB motor works would agree with that. That's what a fresh built 4.2 high output will do tho.
Ed Meyer wouldn’t let Ryan touch my stuff
I wish I could find my comment from several years ago before tfl started testing tuned trucks, I literally told them over and over to review tuned and simple bolt ons so people could see real world performance and turns out I was right, now they afte dedicated entire videos to it and have really grown the channel, I'm pretty sure they owe me a tune or least a discount on one of their test vehicles lol, side note them EcoBoost trucks are down right fast for a full size truck, that's supercharged V8 power levels!! And you will never guess who gave Ford that idea
How long are the stock internals going to last on these motors? My stock 3.5 has plenty of power but it would be nice to have double power!
Also, I've heard rumor of a new 6.8L V8 being developed by Ford, to be built in Windsor, for in F150s and possibly Mustangs.
That is supposedly replacing the 5.0 and is just a mini 7.3 it was going to come out a few years ago but had problems with the flow according to an engineer inside ford
@@MrGameing101 But why does the 5.0 need replacing, its competitive with the competition, maybe its the turbo 3.5 that needs replacing as the top offering in a half ton. And why a new ICE engine when electrics are supposed to be taking over? Lots of questions.
@James M by all accounts, the 7.3 is a pretty good engine.
@@gabrielback5615 it's not replacing the coyote. The 6.8L is going to be offered as a special one off model and possibly a crate engine. What that means? A possible Boss platform mustang returning, and an all motor V8 performance F150 in my books.
Three weeks ago I drove a 3.5 Ecoboost truck first and then a 5.0 truck. Honestly the 5.0 felt weak next to the Ecoboost because of all that torque down low. The 5.0 may last longer but hell I never keep anything longer than five years anyway. Needless to say I bought the Ecoboost truck.
Great choice do you still have it how is it running?
@@michaelgranville1733 Yes I still have it although I'm only up to 14K miles so far. Still running great, no issues yet.
What Exhaust does the 2.7 eb have in this? Honestly, this is the only videos I have found with an exhaust on a 2.7 that sounds decent lol.
Few questions. What wheels are those on the 3.5 truck. They’re beautiful. And where can i get a big screen like that.
If a forced induction 3.5 liter can push out 700hp how much can the 6.2 hemi in the TRX can push? 1200?
Transmission will dies next to that power. Dodge is known for kickass engines but the absolute worst transmissions
@@moreuggaduggas except the TRX transmission is made by ZF not FCA and is well known for being reliable even at higher power levels. Do your research before spewing fake news...

When discussing the 2wd truck with the 2.7, I find the comment "13.1" is possible stated by 5 Star very interesting. It makes me feel very good about my truck. I know that they have ran much faster 12.3 in a 2018 up 2.7 2wd Supercrew but it was on a Hoosier with OEM 16 inch light weight wheels so I am assuming that they are referring to a real practical street tire. 2018 up 2.7's have additional fuel injectors, 6 in port and 6 direct injection whereas 15-17 only have direct. The factory fueling capability of the 2018 has an ethanol advantage in stock form compared to the earlier trucks. I have a 2016 Ford F150 Supercrew 4x4 2.7 Ecoboost with 209,xxx miles. It has it's stock original turbos. It is 5 Star e50 tuned and the only fueling upgrade is a VMP boost a pump. It has a CVF catted downpipe, an entry level CVF intercooler, AMS turbo inlet tubes and a S&B intake. Again it has stock turbos. I have ran a dragy 13.1 IN 2WD with a horrible 2.07 60ft time and on a small 255/50R20 all season 560 treadwear tire on the street. No doubt that with a 4wd launch that I can drop all of those et's significantly. I am not currently interested in doing 4wd, it is my goal to run a 12.9 on an EVERYDAY street tire that gets mileage, is safe in bad weather and can handle gravel roads, in 2wd with stock turbos. I currently have the worthless e locker rear differential carrier and I can't lock it in as it stopped working but they weren't great even when working because they disengage at 20mph. So I am launching with an open carrier. I have a Ford Performance Mustang GT locker "requires mod"that I will install soon and hopefully I can get that 12.9 by cutting my 60ft. I am currently leaving at a very low rpm on negative boost. Theres 500 utube videos of 4x4 F150's doing sub 5 second and sub 4 second 0-60 mph times launching in 4wd. I to my knowledge have the only sub 5 second "4.89" 0-60 on the street in 2wd on a regular tire. On a side note,a high percentage of people who "upgrade" thier trucks spend money to increase the power output of the engine and then make counter productive choices when buying wheels and tires. That 3.5 truck has Vorsteiner 20's, a wise choice coming in at 29lbs per wheel. The 2.7 truck has Fuel wheels and a typical 20 inch Fuel weighs 50 and the typical 22 inch Fuel weighs 60lbs. My 20's weigh 29.5. I did alot of research on my tire choice as well and my tire weighs 30. So 59.5 lbs per corner. I bet that 2.7 is carrying a minimum of 90 lbs per corner, probably 100. Reciprocating weight is far worse on performance than sprung weight. Ferrari says 1 pound of additional wheel/tire weight is equal to 6 pounds of sprung weight. Lets just say that 2.7 has 30 more pounds per wheel than my truck. 30x6=180. 180x4=720. So its like he added 720lbs in weight to his truck by making poor choices. So when I add turbos to my truck it will roast that truck?
They sound like a Grand National !!!
You guys should revisit the Explorer ST and see what the community is doing with them. My truck has ran a 12.0 and there are already people running 11s in them without upgraded turbos
Are there any conflicts with tuning the powerboost hybrid?
This is why I’m saving money to get the 2.3 in the bronco because with a tune and exhaust I can have well over 300 hp.
WOW!! I could knock off a week on my dry wall job! 🤣
Especially if you come watch my TH-cam channel where I pass on my 35 years of skills to everybody, LOL. Mostly I’m kidding and just couldn’t help but notice the drywall post.
Best part about that 3.5 Eco is it looks very much stock. Sure you can tell it has an exhaust, but wouldn't know you're about to get smoked 😀
thats why I call mine the sleeper creeper. 2011 f 150 eco beast , mine is not near as fast as this one but mine did dyno right at 485hp at the tires with few mods new full exhaust front to tip new intercooler cold air intake after m throttle body and a custom 93 tune
Yes, I am saving for more, I don't want 600+ hp but, I do want into the 500s
Waiting for comparing between Transit 3.5 EB and others Vans
Amazon needs to get a fleet of tuned transit vans to deliver your junk within minutes of ordering 😂
The Ram TRX boys ran for the hills. This can be done to Raptors.
They ran up the hill still waiting for the ford guys to catch up ...😜
Yeah but you got a change/upgrade the turbos on the ford and if you did an exhaust and a tune and an intake and a smaller pulley on the TRX that’s like 800 wheel hp ish
It sure can 😉 However, what many consumers have been wanting back (specifically for the Raptor), was that old fashioned V8 grunt.
RAM and the TRX specifically stepped up to those in the market, with its 6.2L supercharged V8.
Sure, Ford’s off-road/baja-capable Raptor is quick from the factory, and can be tuned/modified to be even quicker. But overall, consumers wanted the sound of a pissed off V8 while doing what they’re rightfully-so, capable of.
The TRX is exactly that, with surpassed capabilities. Not to mention the market to tune and upgrade engine components is already out there, being that it’s a “Hellcat” engine. Consumers will immediately be able to custom tune, increase/implement different fueling systems and octanes, swap pulleys, add larger injectors, superchargers, etc. (All of this is honestly just friendly input). We’re certainly living in exciting times! 🤘🏻 🇺🇸
@@SRTifiedRAM But how many hellcats spend half their time at the dealers getting fixed?
@@jailman1 Generally speaking, not many at all. I could easily say the same thing about F-150’s and Raptors; everything from the engine block heater, front and rear seat mechanism/components, headlights, rearview mirror/camera, gear position indicator for the transmission, starter assembly, battery cables and electrical system, spare tire bead, lack of implemented roof rivets for structural integrity, the list goes on. Go ahead and look up the recalls. (Now what were you saying about spending half the time getting repaired?)
Unlike Brent, I like the subtle exhaust tone. What exhaust is on the 2.7? I own a 18' F150 and want to upgrade exhaust.
I think it's some magnaflow setup.. deep and not raspy.
You guys do a great job. Love the channel.
I don't want to own either of these engines past 150k miles when things start to wear out, but I've got to say I'm impressed with the performance potential here. Never would have guessed it for the 2.7L.
Willing to bet they do last 150k
150k miles on a motor making 2.2x oem... stick to a stock corola If stuff like this worries you !
I know people who have money and lots of horsepower with lots of problems. I also know people with lots of brains and understanding of mechanical parts also with a lot of horsepower and minimal problems. It takes good understanding/experience of limitation on what that drive train likes as far as rpm, shifting, temperatures, and so on. Professional race cars are built to take a beating with extreme horsepower but a Joe Schmoe who only knows how to stomp on the gas pedal will easily blow a race car up. Food for thought.

Someone please tell me what exhaust is on this truck .( 2.7 )
it sounds perfect to me not crazy but better than no noise stock
Ford has knocked it out of the park the past few years mechanically. First with the ecoboost. Very very massed produced with a tiny percentage seeing catastrophic failure, even when tuned . Stock, they've been very reliable, especially as a work horse.
Then the gen 3 coyote and a10. That combo is one of the best combos for street, work and race. Amazing what a fbo e85 f150 can do .
Very impressed! EcoBoost FTW!

Kinda like those wheels on the 3.5
Ceratec turbo cleaner liquid and royal purple octane booster were put in 2015 2.7 earlier tonight and it really made a difference. Was experiencing passenger side turbo noise and turbo lag when inherited truck 500 miles ago. No more noise and have acceleration on demand that makes truck go sideways when accelerate to hard during lane changes and sharp turns. Truck said it was getting 11 mpg when I got it, now 16mpg, even when driving like a sport truck. Transmission and differential are a little strange now, wondering what to do to make run better. Flush both?
