- Welcome to my Ford F-150 PowerBoost build series. In this episode I cover all of the performance upgrades that I have added. This episode features a Corsa Cold Air Intake, Roush Cold Air Intake, CVF Intercooler, and a Turbo Smart blow-off valve. I also did some VERY extensive MPG testing and 0-60 runs as well to test the overall performance of these mods.

I have a '22 F150 hybrid 2wd supercrew that is stock. On my highway/city mix I am seeing about 23-25MPG on a 30 mile one way trip. I have gotten 31mpg, but I was going in 50-55mph traffic for only 10 miles. I have found on highways if you keep it about 66-67MPH you will get 25+mpg. At 70mph I get more around 23-24MPG, and at 75MPH I get closer to 22-23MPG. I would also note that I am in SE Texas with mostly flat roads. I have also found that if you do not use cruise control, you can "coast" up hills with only allowing a little bit of MPH decrease, and then gain the speed back going down hills or flat road. If I see a hill coming I try to slowly gain a little speed to compensate that way when I lose some MPH I am still going my original speed or close to it. I can see a huge increase of MPG even going 70MPH.
I really appreciate how thorough and easy to understand your vids are. Subscribed!
Another fellow Arizonan with a powerboost! Nice!!
Really helpful. Semi scientific testing. Definitely more than I myself could do.
“Thank You!” for sharing
Awesome vid!
Thanks!!
Dan thank you for your advise on sealing the Roush cool air intake box after watching your video I purchased black flex seal tape and seal the opening around the air intake tubes to hope to improve my mpg on my 2021 f150 limited powerboost
Livernois tune made a big difference in mine, if u are looking for quick seat of the pants improvement get after it. Thing is angry in sport mode. Only complaint is that they just send the tunes u request without any info as to what changes were made. Just the octane u request or tow tune. Other than that it’s an immediate very noticeable difference. Also just installed AFE’s new CAI for it ( momentum XP) and although didnt expect or feel any real power increase it is far higher quality unit than the others available, looks very sexy under the hood, and can hear the turbos a bit more. The two pipe aluminum set up is really nice looking and it all fits tight, no slop. Of course more pricey as well though but worth the higher quality components. Just couldn’t wait for Cobb to release a carbon fiber unit, those things are gorgeous.
Well. Goes to show environment is everything. I am averaging 23-24mpg. I've gotten 28 before. No hyper-miles, just easy on the throttle and stay off the boost. Lol I'm at 24.1 mpg now even after taking the truck off roading this weekend.
I have the K&N 77-2617KC on my 23 PB. I love the duel tube design, and it uses the factory cold air inlet.
Did you have any results in mileage difference when you added the inter-cooler? I’ve read on some forums that guys who’ve added the Titan are seeing better mpg’s. Curious if you saw any improvement.
Say question
No, 18mpg on 35’s with cvf ii
Dang. I was looking forward to seeing your results. But your area is different from mine. I've been averaging 23 to 26 mpg depending on traffic in my area. My area has a lot of hills too but it's at sea level. I just want to see how much improvement you can get on mpg before making the buy for the cai.
I also live in a pretty hilly area now and they definitely help the mpg because the gas motor has more chances to turn off all together. I’m averaging 24.5 at about 14k miles on my 22 lariat 2wd
Have a white Powerboost in the Phoenix area as well. Maybe I’ll see you around town sometime. Mines just a stock Lariat I bought to pull my TT. Pulled about 8k miles around the US so far and average about 8.5mpg. Love the power the truck has but it’s definitely thirsty with added baggage.
do you have the 7.2kw on yours? If so do you plug your TT into it?
@@atomictyler- I do have the 7.2kW. And yes plug my TT into it. I’ve even boondocked in a Cabela’s and Cracker Barrel parking lot and ran my trailers AC unit. Others in the parking lot must have suffered because it was warm both times.
@@threetoyotas That's amazing! I just got a Powerboost last week with the 7.2kW. I'm hoping to get an insulated cargo trailer with 30amp power and an AC unit. The plan is to travel with our side by side, pull it out, and setup some beds inside with the trailer hooked up to the truck. At least at the areas we're going to be riding the side by side.
I haven't seen/heard of many people using the Powerboost and 7.2kW hook up for trailers/RVs, but it seems like the perfect combination.
I'm new here but I can tell you are OCD!...... I like it!
Would like to know the mpg # gains/loses from the intercooler
I have a 22 powerboost and its all stock pretty much. I have seen the high mpg, even got over 30mpg in a town once, hardly anyone around so I babied the thing like I never would just to see. My actual average for a little over 6000 miles is 20.9, here in town I do a lot of the short trips on electric but I am mostly a hwy driver having to travel 35 minutes to the city.
I also have a 2022 and my overall average is 21.8 but I generally get between 24 and 27 when driving to and from work that is a combination of city and highway driving.
@@marzbarz72 Not bad, I love mine even if I do not get the big mpg.
What blow off valve was that and where to purchase ?
Have you looked into the s&b intake system ? Have you maintained a high MPG since installing and keeping the CAI? Also did you remove the intake plastic runners inside the intake tubes on the inlets?
Last I checked, S&B doesn't make a CAI for the powerboost. I'm hoping that changes soon because they are who I prefer. Phenomenal products by them.
I’m wondering if you like the Fuelly app and if you have the Premium? Thanks
Look at 5Star tuning for Ford power boost trucks. They’ve taken out the guesswork.
Via the power flow screen i have seen many times when i am just driving on electric only. is a matter of fact i do it all the time. Thats why the oil pressure gauge and the tach both show 0..
You could have run your test loop with the K&N before swapping it out to get the mileage results with that. It looks like you are not running stock tires either.
If no filter yields such a gain, I wonder what a ram air would do. Yes there are pumping losses that could be negated.
How about that Roush stage 1 ecu upgrade
One thing to note on the return on investment is the cost of the paper filters, the Motorcraft is ~ $25
Are you going to do a Livernois tune?
Amazing video thank you! Im in the middle of either getting this truck or the thundra hybrid can you give me any advice
If you don't want the generator option, then they're pretty much identical power trains. Yota has slightly more pwr and trq. Both are so new and will have their bugs. I believe the ecoboost motor from Ford is a Gen 3 in the powerboost, compared to Yota being a Gen 1. Just assuming this part though, Yota probably tore apart the ecoboost motor and made it better than Ford's Gen 3.
@@louist003 totally agree with you im getting a thundra trd pro
Man, now I'm debating on if the hybrid set up is even worth it as far as MPG. I'm curious what the difference between the power boost and eco boost is with just these same few modifications. I really only want the hybrid for MPG but if the MPG is nit that much better may just go with the eco boost and larger fuel tank.
I think it’s awesome for people who work in construction or any other scenarios where you might be in the truck while at idle. It is REALLY awesome to have the truck running on battery only with the engine only kicking in once and a while to recharge the battery. It’s also a better option with the 7.2kw generator. The added HP and Torque is pretty great too but MPG alone probably isn’t compelling enough to pull the trigger on the PowerBoost in my opinion.
I was getting 700 miles per tank in my powerboost before lift and tires. My buddy's ecoboost is getting 600 per tank. The 7.2kw Gen is an excellent upgrade if you're going to use it.
@@louist003 what are you getting for range now?? What size tires and lift??
@@Goingforbroke71 I'm getting 500 miles to the tank now with a 6" lift and 35's.
@@louist003 miles per tank means nothing to me. PB has a 30.6-gallon tank, and the Ecoboost comes with 26 or 36-gallon.
Do you think your gas mileage would improve if you kept it under 65 mph (maybe a good test comparison
It does, I have seen much better going slower in mine, I normally run 80 on the hwy most of the time though but dropping it down under 70 definitely adds a couple mpg to my powerboost.
I’m getting about 19-20mpg at 75 so I usually drive around 65 instead and get much better mileage.
I get 22.6 mpg on mine combined with 13000 miles. I have driven it easy and hard at times. The most mpg performance I’ve seen is actually a little bit faster than 70-73 mph.
100% Powerboost mpg drops off drastically after 60mph, because rpm gets much higher. I can get 24mpg highway a 55mpg and only 20mpg at 65-70
Which specific blowoff valve did you put on this? And did it swap part for part?
Turbo smart, No fitment issues with the BOV. Links in the description of the intercooler / BOV video.
th-cam.com/video/vZivzhdVyQY/w-d-xo.html
@@GearsGadgets I'll check it out. I checked turbo smarts website. And they had 2 different BOVs for the Ecoboost
I just ordered the K&N air filter today for my 22 Power-boost. Do you think adding the silicone is mandatory and which did you use?
Do u have a link to your 0-60? Wondering why ur number under 6 seconds.
Heavier than stock tires, 105 degree day, 1,100 ft above sea level, fully loaded (options) truck.
Sup man I’m in Phx too would you sell me the corsa intake?
Do you know if any of the mods void your warranty?
What is the name of the app for fuel tracking.
Fuelly
Hey man can you give us a Tonal update?
yep, video coming soon within a couple weeks
did the intercooler install void your warranty?
I get 21mpg with premium. If I baby it I can get 23. Never use regular fuel
I have the 2023 Limited Powerboost . The truck now has 4500 miles. Never towed or hauled anything. The best average mpg I have gotten is 17.5 . I have gotten as bad as 14.5 mpg. My 2018 5.0 Platinum was about 18 average mpg . Just hwy was 20.5 . So the 1900 extra dollars for the Powerboost wasn’t worth it. Plus I hear the new 5.0 gets even better mpg than my 2018..
My Powerboost is avg 25.4. Crew cab long box lariat 4x4.
That 1000 foot elevation is nothing to impact 0-60, I can only see those tires sucking over a second off your 0-60 both in weight and loss of traction
Not a popular opinion I guess, but I am shocked that people want this sound. I could understand liking the turbo spool up sound of my diesels, but this just sounds like a fart noise. The whole thing I like about mine is the quiet. I could go drive my old Cummins if I wanted engine/turbo noise. lol
Agreed. I love how quiet it is
@@dillonvillon The quiet and smooth ride reminds me of my dads old 60s and 70s cars. Very comfortable.
Hey do you ever run it in eco mode ?
Why didn’t you test the drop in K&N filter? That would be the cheapest mod.
You don't get very good mileage, Speed isn't your friend for getting milage, I average 23 to 28 mpg with stock 2021 XLT Powerboost
Good effort, however, your comparison is useless... These trucks have an adaptive self learning ECU.... with every change you should reset the ECU and go through the relearn. Changing anything without the relearn will more than likely throw those affected parameters out of optimal
Real world testing, the self learning ECU is actively reading air intake flow, temps, fuel octane, timing, and a zillion other parameters. If it were 1993 then yes you would be correct but modern ECU’s are making millions of calculations per second based on real-time data. This is why you can pull up to a gas pump and fill up 87, 93, or ethanol (in certain vehicles) without needing to reset ecu’s.
That is a myth. The ECU reads inputs from the sensors to determine airflow and adjust fuel and timing. disconecting the battery is some old timer myth that keeps getting regurgitated by so many people.
If there is a resonator cut it and add a straight pipe you’ll get 6-8 mpg
LOL Come on bro
Stellantis has just rolled out its new RAM Revolution pick up truck concept vehicle....While a great deal of the hype is about the BEV version, its my understanding that the Stellantis leadership has committed to offering a plug-in hybrid for the 2024 model year...If this is true, they have stolen a huge brass ring from Ford by offering pick up truck owners the possibility of driving electric-only during the week with no range anxiety for long distance/towing- this will transform pick up truck economics, offer low emissions as well as no reliance on yet-to-be developed sketchy charging infrastructure....
It’s 2022, are we STILL trying to convince people that CAI improve mileage? It’s been debunked so many times and ways.
Not trying to convince anyone of anything. Just reporting my findings good, bad, or indifferent. The problem is that “it’s been debunked” isnt a true statement. That blanket “debunked” statement pretends like every engine is identical regardless of naturally aspirated / forced induction, widely varying aerodynamic drag, regular vs premium, and ecu / pcm programming adjustments in real-time arent identical in every vehicle. I think your “debunked” has been “debunked” by my results and should be modified to “results may vary”. If you watched my video you would see it did improve mileage but as I said, is it worth the expense? maybe but it is a very long term payoff.
@@GearsGadgets absolutely. every vehicle is different, and some intakes are tuned differently from the factory to create the driving experience that the engineers hoped for. Just a peak HP number is not the whole picture. Some vehicles don't really gain from and intake, especially for the F150. When you start approaching the 500 hp mark the benefits will be there but below that the cost is just too high for most people. Thanks for the time and effort you put into this video It was informative and entertaining
Dude, not a bad video but you are stealing our time.
Just tell us the MPG and 0-60 and save us time you talking about everything else in this world. 6min -8 min is what you really wanna know
If I didn’t talk for 6-8 minutes you wouldn’t have ever found this video because my channel would have 6 subscribers with 4 views. I understand everyone has the attention span of a gerbil but truth be told, I do this because it’s fun for me, I enjoy what I do. If you can only handle 6-8 second videos, delete TH-cam and stick to TikTok.
And I was just getting ready to subscribe till I read your reply. Yang ynag!
@@dansherwood9851 I can live with that. I wouldn’t want a subscriber who didn’t want to be here, that wouldn’t make much sense for either of us now would it?
@@GearsGadgets Yea, for a minute there I though you was a genuinely good guy, but after seeing your replies, not hard to see that you’re just another shmuck that is trying to wrack up “watch time on YT”
Wish you all of the best, maybe you’ll be beneficial some day.
1st: You're welcome for approving your comment out of TH-cam's spam filter.
2nd: It's adorable how self entitled your initial comment was about how I wasted YOUR time as if you are the only person on the planet. There is nothing stopping you from picking up a camera and trying it yourself BUT that would require putting yourself out there and dealing with the sobering reality how difficult it TRULY is to create content that people watch. It's WAY easier to drunkenly scream SHOOT IT to the guy on the ice than it is to learn how to ice skate let alone learn any of the advanced skills of the sport. It is nice to have fans, even the ones who barely understand what they are criticizing. I am proud to be on this side of the glass putting in the honest effort and reaping the rewards of the hard work and marketable skills gained in the process.
To provide a little context to someone who clearly won't appreciate it, the average view time on this video is 6 and a half minutes which is staggeringly high compared to the average.

What I noticed is that even though the hybrid has more horsepower it doesn't compensate for the weight of the battery. The hybrid has shit for MPG
