Today we swapped out my Ford F-150 Raptor R's stock supercharger for a Whipple 3.8l gen 6 supercharged... needless to say the gains were INSANE for how much work it took. What an upgrade!

lol Tye- why didn’t I get a blower when my bumper got messed up, that’s messed up. 😂😂
I mean he is speaking facts.
Ooh weird idea put the old blower on tye’s ford 👀
@@jaybee95960 You'll have to chop 2 ports off it first.
@@victorbitter583fill em' with bondo😂
@@christian6381 That'll work. Why didn't I think of that? What could possibly go wrong? lol.
Can we do a year of Freedom? I freaking. Love daily videos!!
Nah it's not sustainable. Enjoy while it lasts! Road to burnout is daily videos. Our boy cleet needs some rest.
Agreed! Obviously not a realistic expectation, but man do I love daily videos!
I believe it is possible, amongst all the Brothers & Sisters of the freedom family to produce a video every single day🎉🎉🎉
That’s a lot of work and effort which means quality will tank
Would be nice, cleet snd squirrel would be drained though.
Once Madi got her supercharger, I knew the Rapter R wouldn't be far behind. I saw this video coming. You have the perfect truck now brother.
I just wanna say I don’t think Zack gets enough love from the channel that man is the definition of a master tech! His abilities are second to none. Everyone in that shop is the top of there field and I just wanna shout out Zack for being able to do anything and everything to the highest specs. Hell yeah brother keep up the good work and love this month of freedom
Great job Zack!
Whipple’s advertising department loves Cleetus😂 He’s doing Gods work for them
For sure. The cost of one blower kit is cheap advertising for Whipple when they give the kit to Cleet.
reaching 3.65 million subscribers plus those that are not subscribed id hope they paid him too,,, thats huge marketing worth a substnatial amount of money.. that is far better better than some cable tv channels for dedicated viewers...
If you believe that Cleetus is a regular paying customer You don't really understand how TH-cam works.
This is an advertisement. He didn't pay for that product, and if he did, he didn't pay anything close to full price. It's not a coincidence he's shot 10 Whipple supercharger install videos.... Are there no other supercharger companies? 🤔
Just like the other day, the 10 engines he purchased from that builder, and shot an entire video in his shop was an advertisement for that shop. 🤔
His RC plane videos are an advertisement for the RC company he owns in Florida. 🤔
Him mentioning TBM brakes every time they work on a car is an advertisement for TBM, which he partially owns. 🤔
Cletus is very good at getting you to watch commercials and not know it.
Not throwing shade, but the month of freedom for the most part is a month of advertising.
@ThisManTriggeredMe Thankgod someone finally gets it. Lol
@@stotzmitchell, True, but it’s still fun to watch. I’m a gearhead so I really enjoy these videos, if they get paid for advertising or free stuff so be it.
I’ll watch and give it a thumbs up, the laughs from some of his videos are usually pretty good.
I would've thought James opening the nitrous bottle would be an easier 250hp.
That was my thoughts when i read the title
Stay tuned!
He paid for the nitrous, insurance paid for the whipple🤣
Trx will make that power with some bolt ons lol
@@Freddy_Confettiyeah but then that junk hemi will scatter itself lol
Every time you say “let’s cut to the time lapse” and the classic time lapse song comes on, I breathe a sigh of relief that you’ve decided to keep the best time lapse song on TH-cam.
Zach's smile starting it up and revving it up was great. Livin' the dream.
As a former dealership mechanic, I gotta say working in that shop has got to be the holy grail of mechanic jobs. The guys are killing it!
I myself have been in a few shops and I’ve never seen one as dialed up as cleets an his team.
And just think he runs that the Freedom Factory ,airport,merchandise some of TBM,Motion,TH-cam with editing a few other companies dude is a machine that surrounds himself with the best of the best to make hos companies almost run themselves
Dude I could only dream of having a shop like that, that like heaven when all you really have is a stuffed garage or tree shade
@@ShaneYahni’m sure they get paid an arm and a leg, my pops is basically a top dog at a local shop and makes $18 an hour in cali…….
@@2Boutdoors I know nothing about mechanics hourly rates in the U.S, but even in Eastern Europe, a good mechanic makes the same. And the cost of living is a lot lower.
Can we just hit Cleet and James with a moment of reverant silence for assembling a team of automotive assassin's? I've watched the crew grow since you were sharing a shop to now having a honest-to-goodness full blown race program. Every team member has one or more race cars, everyone has the passion to help the other go faster or preform better. There is commeradity and kinmanship in every moment. That's not a racing team, that's a racing family.
The Cleetus crew and associated friends & channels is what I love.
Racing is fun but, these people could make a golf channel exciting.
@@tobycatVAgolf is exciting if u dk what ur doing
@@tobycatVA There is a golfing episode in the catalog. Live action was had!
agree why love cleet and crew simlair to old days when i race few good freinds who all want see each other do good have fun commeradity is wat make it for me time i smash freind on race track then spent time fixing there car to go out for next race
@@tobycatVA They did take the 1000cc golf cart golfing once
Smashes bumper cause of a deer crossing…..”yup….it looks like it’s gonna need a new super charger to get that bumper repaired” 😆 I freakin love it!!!
Ford raptor has been an iconic truck ever since it first came out. It has come a long ways and even at the V6tt generation mistake, the bald screaming eagles came back to life with this v8 s/c set up. Nonetheless, the option of 37’s from factory. Great job ford, well done.
I gotta say, removing the front tires and using the lift to drop the front end is genius Zach.
Correct! A Smart Dude!
Agreed, But rolling around on the floor to rebuild the bumper....Not so Much 😂
@@petem7759 on a hot day, that shop floor probably feels a a lot nicer than standing
That's how it's done in every shop. Pull the front wheels, lay the front end down, get so much more access.
Lol every shop everywhere has mechanics doing this. Very common practice if your doing any engine work on a truck.
Man. Your guys get so much work done all of the time.
Zach killed that
McFarland Racing is a well oiled machine!
I remember commenting years ago when Leroy was twin turbskies for a while to check out the new blowers. Back then the "new" blowers were NOTHING compared to what they are now. Glad you've kept them in the loop over the years, even though not really drag racing with them. I have a feeling that may change soon. Not much has changed with turbskies in a while, blowers seem to be really evolving I love it.
Seems like this month comes and goes so fast, truly enjoy daily videos but seeing as many “months of freedom” tell me I’m getting old!!
This is so smart on Whipple… really bringing to light how much power these things can make and that turbos aren’t the end all
It really brings to light that horsepower numbers don't really mean jack shit. 1,000whp turbo truck is way less fun when it's spending the entire time spooling.
@@rustler08 exactly… the f150 is so much better now with the Whipple vs the turbos
@@bounderchrisHowever.. superchargers are a lot harder on engines than turbos, and they get much worse mileage.
Was it me or did a bunch of crap fly out of the bed on the first rip? 🤣
Dunno what it was, but I saw it too.
Saw it too like a tarp that covers smth in the bed
There was a editing cut so I hope he picked up the trash
@@larryt9176 It was a padded moving blanket, it never blew out , it was seen again flailing around in the back a few times. Im not saying a water bottle didnt get yeeted out but the blanket didnt.
@@warrenmichael918 Yeah the blanket remained but not the rest of it.
I moved out of the South about 10 years ago and im so happy to see that people still clean there truck beds out the same as its always been done😂
That sounds so good, dude! Grats on the crazy gains for such little elbow grease! Hope it lasts ya!!
I love George! That instant clap back with the “that’s enough out of you” made choke so bad my wife was worried
His one liners are the best.
At first glance i thought you were staying something about George making you choke your wife 😅
Biggest chevy butthurt ever lol
George has really come into his own. Very witty
Great idea Zack,I never thought of taking the front tires off so you can reach the engine bay better 👍👍👍 I never know what I am going to learn here.
Honestly cleetus your videos are so entertaining you all got me cracking up constantly, not a lot of channels can keep my attention but you guys kill it! Everytime I get that upload notification I hope she’s at least a 45 minute video upload!!!!!!!!
Got to love Zach. He's always working hard with a smile on his face.
@Bull-dj3fx Same when you meet him in person. Just the nicest guy ever.
How can he not when he’s working with a team of people anybody would love to work with
Get your boy a table. Got Zach assembling that bumper on the floor. 🤣
They ruined the table bodyshop’n.
It cooler down there and they keep that shop immaculate for a working shop.
They need the table for habachi auto body
I'm one of the weirdos that enjoys working on the floor. 😂
I thought that too, never seen a mechanic playing on the floor and working on stuff horizontally like that, that shop must be clean
I think you guys just set a trend in motion for many Raptor-R owners ... Love it!!!
I can tell sponsors are influencing yalls enthusiasm towards the parts.. I ain't mad. Good content.
When other channel's and People hate on Cleetus, I think to myself how they are just guy's having fun.. I don't care where his money came from or what he makes now! I am just enjoying the content.. I was watching a chat the other day and PPL were hating, And I think to myself Why?? I don't count other people's money, or care what they have anyway.. As long as he takes care of his guy's that's all that matters really..
Jealous, in the last seven years it seems like someone has released the Haters and made it OK too treat certain people with hate and they seem angry all the time, I think Cleat is a good guy and he treats his crew like family, it's sad that there's people like that.
It's just the poison internet these days..
Jealous, classic jealous...
I love his success because I know that I and so many others were the ones who got him there. When he announced the freedom factory I understood the level of risk he took, so, merch, track tickets, ppv, whatever it took, I was even down to take a month vaca and help out. May sound silly, but this is the only content I like, it's the best content in the world. It's a show that airs multiple times a week, every week of the year and never stops. What do you have to pay for that level of dedication? Whatever he makes, he deserves it.
I hardly ever see any negativity on his channel. No one cares the past is the past
Dropping the front of the truck with the wheels off! Genius! Lovin the Month of Freedom!
I was impressed with that idea too. I honestly don't think I would have thought of that.
I was looking for this comment lol
That is something you do regularly when working with trucks regularly..
Unfortunately almost all new trucks and suvs you have to do this, if you want to stand and wrench. At the dealer we also have a top side creeper which is a great alternative if it’s just something quick
I discovered that little trick on my lifted Excursion, I call it "making the old girl kneel", Makes working under the hood much easier.
I love the daily videos, but by far I love the time-lapse videos with our song- That's when you know it's gonna be good!
You have the best crew ever! Haha I will always support you guys! I hope to make the trip from Canada someday soon to come to an event!
Sitting here watching this on the living room tv when my eight year old son says,
" this guy is a Super American"! We are now binge watching old Cleet!
That’s awesome. 👍👍
I do love that time lapse song!❤ Heard it a 1000 times, and it never gets old!
Zach your a savage dude you dont mess around with anything you do your work ethic is awesome 👍🏻
I may or may not have slowed this video down and did eaxctly what you did brother and omg you are amazing for this
New Cleetus face unlocked! 11:16 Love it. Raptor sounded like pure freedom!
Agreed. That needs to go on a T-shirt!
Cleetus, you have THE BEST workers in the industry working for you. Amazing crew fo sho!
Good stuff Capt. ! 🤘
That is absolutely insane so much power I can’t wait to get mine 🔥🔥🔥
I love this and I love Ford my grandfather was a big Ford man ever since they were made he was born in 34 and just past away his cars ran amazing so less to say I love this Ford is amazing!
Cleetus in pure shock when George said 756 hp 😳 when all they did was put a new super charger on it! It's impressive when the Chevy guy says it's the best truck
The smiles on all 4 of your faces during the first road test is what keeps me coming back to this channel.
Can I have the old one for my 5.0 fl150 rcsb? I have to at least ask
I'm a Chevy guy myself. The coyote is by far the most impressive engine Ford has made imo. The Godzilla is probably my favorite. But those totes put down.
I think the raptor r is a 5.2 predator engine, but 5.0’s are in its own breed and I’m loving it!
bite your tongue
Oh shit really. So it's the newer gt500 motor. Yo that's sick though.
That's honestly insane that a single part upgrade is adding 250hp to ANYTHING and that the rest of the truck was so overbuilt that it supports the mod.
I’m blown away that the stock fuel system can support ~900+ crank HP.
@danmyers9372 2023s were flex fuel meaning they have a fuel system that supports e85
This is the exact same system as the GT500, which also has a predator engine but at 770 hp.
If I'm not mistaken, those factory 37's, are really only about 34.5! BFG really screwed up on the raptor r tires. Not sure how they get away with that.
Those 3.8 whipples are awesome! That power curve is legit! It just makes power at any rpms lol
I love seeing these guys enjoying the greatness of the modern ford engines.
It's time for AC in the shop and there is a reason beyond the obvious: You do side by side comparisons of pulls and at different temps it will throw off your results. Get a hose and blower for exhaust and blast the damn AC. It is time. Foam it and throw some AC in.
Ok James we hear ya lol
No disrespect but I think they’re smart enough to let the vehicles cool down or at least be at a reasonable temp before each pull. We just don’t see it because of the videos being edited and shortened. With that said I still agree with the need for AC, those guys in the shop bust their hump day in and day out to get all these vehicles ready for races and videos. And having AC in their already super well set up shop would just be icing on the cake.
Would be insanely expensive to keep a uninsulated shop like that air conditioned
Not every idea is a good idea.
@dominic1102 It doesn't matter how hot or cold the vehicle is, if the air is 40C its going to make a lot less power than if the air is 5-10C.
I saw a couple Whipple boxes in yesterday's video I almost said something. If the insurance is buying I would have to. 😂😂
I saw that too.. I thought to myself old boxes,or new toy.. Now we know lol
"insurance" aka whipple 😂
My son bought a 2020 Stang gt from the owner of company he works for. It’s triple black unbadged with stage 3 Roush set up. He’s getting 750hp to the wheels 869hp to the crank. The Super charger makes no noise! So no one knows when someone pulls up to him wanting to run!! 😂 it’s nasty! 1-2-3 gone>>>>> 💨
Ford power is sounding awesome with the Whipple 3.8. Awesome roll on power too. You should use Amsoil in the motor, front/rear differentials and transfer case. Get a couple more hp
“You know how you can ruin a truck pretty quickly?”
George: “yeah I know” 😂😂😂
I was hoping I wasn't the only one who noticed.
I really don’t want this month to end!! I freaking love the daily videos I need them after a long day of work and raising 6 kids this channel is like therapy! I think it’s the biggest reason I’m still as patriotic as I am right now, our country needs more McFarland Racing viewers and we’d be alright 🇺🇸
Hell of a profile my guy
Be gone, bot
That's a hot bot id give it my 000&10110's
Dan Murphy's a good sucker
Wtf is this.
Thank you so much for the car content! Love it, Brother!
Love it! Sounds really cool too!
Say what u want about ford but that's four guys in a ford with huge smiles on their faces
First On Race Day baby.
they are PAID to smile
Ford is the best
@derekg2132 I'm sure ford is glad you think that way, have you ever had to work on one
@XLTJeff for your info I was a mechanic at ford for 16 years
Big respect Cleetus, in the last month you’ve poured millions in your hard earned dollars to make us all the best content possible! Absolute American hero!
Whipple killed it with their new 2024 Calibrations.
I have a new modified Whipple tune on My Mustang. But modified for Fuel system and Injectors etc. My car runs better than stock (6R80). I'm thoroughly impressed woth huge improvements over the Lund tune I had.
Cleeter is “living the life” we all want. Whipple the world!
@14:00 seeing you boys all together testing out the truck. Man it warms my damn heart! Best channel on TH-cam hands down.
Finally the Raptor gets upgrades!
I feel like every supercharger they unbox is the same reaction scene just cut in lol. Love it! Month of freedom should become year of freedom!
I wish I could afford to have a mechanic like that on payroll.. He deserves a raise!
When Cleeetus was listening to the new supercharger, I believe there was a little inner Burt Reynolds that came out in a laugh… lol
That’s a big 10/4 brother 😊
Bro how tf does everyone STILL fuckup spelling Cleetus....it's LITERALLY in the channel name 😂😂😂
@@LegalLowGround truth lolol
@@LegalLowGroundschools don’t teach kids grammar or spelling anymore. Hell I don’t know why anyone goes to school anymore everything you could ever need is in the palm of everyone’s hand these days.
I didn’t know Bradenton, FL was that close to Mexico, doing all those rips
Close enough for Cleet !!
Your mother's day race was awesome I couldn't stop smiling and laughing... so entertaining and heart warming 😂❤
Can we agree that Cleetus McFarland Has done some Amazing things for America!!!! Thank you Cleetus and the Whole Team at Freadom Factory for All your Hard work!!!
And Thank you to All the Moms!! With out you We wouldn't be here😊 Cheers & God Bless you!
😎 keep up the Great Content
Huge props to Zach, dude is a freakin' beast!
That unit has more displacement in just the supercharger than I had in my first car. It ads about double the horsepower that my first car made also. I had a Chevy lumina with a 3.1l. bought it not knowing it had a blown head gasket. Got about 60 miles out of it before it hydro locked. I Bought an 86 bronco after working my ass off for about 2 months. Spent every dime I made after that putting gas in that 5.0l pig.
LoL heck, it has more displacement than my current Porsche :D that's a big blower!
My first car also had a blown head gasket! It was a 1.7l 2002 Honda Civic. Had next to no compression in one of the pistons and drank coolant.
It went 2 years and the motor outlived the transmission LOL
It has more displacement than my 19 F150
Trx will make that power with some bolt ons lol
UNHOL UNDERCOATING IM CHESTERFIELD NH! This stuff is awesome it's bot a couple of denatured coyote and lion's pee that you can't smell but the little critters will stay right away from anything you put it on. But if you want to work on something. It will easily come off with a hot water or steam and just generally go back on when you have a cool temp day.I have been using it for years and it literally keeps everything outside. Good luck Bro
I’ve never liked a white truck before, but this Raptor R with the gen 6 Whipple made this my favorite modern truck
Zacks enthusiasm to take on a new job is the best thing ever. Hes such a hard worker and genuine guy
Hell -yah, Brother, you got trash flying out the bed. Hope no one was behind you on those pulls awesome upgrade forced induction rulz 😊
It wouldn’t be a Cleetus pull without shit flying out of the vehicle 😂 usually it’s old slips
Must be an old fat
@@NickPDX22 or the tow truck 😅
I always Love the solid justification for every mod we see in the vids!
It's very simple - the bigger the screw-type supercharger the slower you need to turn it to make the same amount of boost on the same size engine. You're also not "working" the air as hard, so it doesn't get as hot. So there are gains in multiple areas. Plus, it can flow WAY more air if you do end up spinning it harder.
Epic thanks for the videos!
I really don’t want this month to end!! I freaking love the daily videos I need them after a long day of work and raising 6 kids this channel is like therapy! I think it’s the biggest reason I’m still as patriotic as I am right now, our country needs more McFarland Racing viewers and we’d be alright ❤🇺🇸
been waiting for a build on one of these
That truck is so slick. What a daily to have!
Wipple opened that string of data logs and said…..this has got to be the most forgiving truck in the country, 20 pulls in 90* heat and he is just hammering it over and over😂😂
I just want to say Happy memorial Day to you guys and weekend you guys doing awesome job they're at the freedom factory working on these cars and making good content you guys deserve a pat on the back all you man keep up the great work
"and well since my bumper was bad" well , you needed it clearly ,enjoy the additional freedoms this provide
One of the coolest things I've seen, love it
That truck was awesome and now it's amazingly awesome!
Great video, Combat Veteran having a tough time remembering the boys this weekend, great to see the morale you guys have! Keep up the awesome work!
Thank You.
We always have to remember the boys/girls both the ones that are still here today as well as those who have moved on to other missions of grandure!! ...
Thank you for your service to us and our nation!
@thereal-stl_slim God bless my brother. Your friends who passed want you to keep going and do well. Carry on.
6mins and 10k views? Nice, that’s a spectacular pace, thank you for the top notch content!
Zach is a smart dude taking the front wheels off to reach the engine easier I would struggle with a step ladder
Hell yeah brother!! Dew it for Dale!!!
Oh I've been waiting for this🤘
That’s at least a $10,000 supercharger. Congrats on doing so well that either A. You can afford that blower or B. Whipple gives you superchargers. Either way that’s another win for ol’ Garret.

That’s awesome whipple is able to do that.
We all have that friend that, whilst in the process of adding a massive blower and turning up the power significantly, will say might as well throw on a smaller pulley. James
I love how Zach is laying on his back doing the bumper when the vehicle is literally in a lift stall.
You often need to be able to switch from below to above when doing bumpers. Easier to use a creeper on the ground and your legs than to raise and lower the lift each time
@@natecade5168 nah, lift offers so much ease, it was hard doing stuff at home sometimes myself after having a lift forever at work.
As someone who works out of 3 bays at the dealership I can’t stand that. But some people aren’t comfortable working under a car on the lift.
I work in a shop with a couple of lifts but sometimes if it is a job that requires a lot of up and down I use a creeper to save time (lifts are slow as ass) and as well I am sometimes more comfortable lying down on the job lol.
On the next episode: Cleetus Buys an Oil Refinery
Or a distillery for ethanol 😂😂😂
Boost + alcohol is a perfect mix
Thanks!!
@12:01 More like 35.5" tire, BFGs are notoriously undersized, the 35"KM3 is like 33". Which is why I went with Pitbulls :D
Zach is awesome! He needs a raise!
That is amazing. The easiest 250 h.p. picked up right there. Sure that kit isn’t cheap but 8 hours in with a blower swap a flash tune and a verified dyno run. I can’t wait to see a run at Bradenton.👍👍🇨🇦
