This is cute , Chevy guys were making fun of ford putting a turbo 6 in a full size truck yet here they are with a turbo 4 cyl lol

Hey 2.7L F150 owner here, and you wanna launch at 2500rpm it’s the sweet spot. If you just keep it on the gas as much as you possibly can without moving you’ll 1) not have enough boost (cause it’ll just open the waste gate) 2) you’ll burn down the motor. Gettin too hot.

Chevy guys talking about how great the 4 banger turbo when the Ecoboost came out they laughed.

A 2015 F150 2.7 (325HP, 375lb*ft) Supercab XL 4x4 with a 3.55 differential and 6 speed ZF transmission runs 6.1s 0-60 and a 14.7 quarter mile.

Put that 4 banger in the Colorado 🚀

Ive a bone stock 2018 f150 4x4 super cab. On 93 octane it went 14.1 @ 96.8mph! 9.0 @ 77mph in the 1/8 mile! 2,200rpm ish launch

I have no experience with the Chevy, but I do have a 2018 f150 with the 2.7......with a tank of 93 octane, my truck feels like a magic carpet, all you have to do is almost think about accelerating, and the truck just goes and goes. With a tank of 87 octane, the truck will go, but you have to use more pedal, and it almost feels like you have to push the truck to make it go fast. The difference is "Night and Day".

The little 4 bangers just can't hang with the fords... Ford is on top right now with the trucks. Good little budget motor for the guys that don't want to spend alot of money but it's not a race motor. It has its place in the market. Fyi the ford 2.7 v6 gets 18- 24 mpg. Surprise by how bad the chevy motor mpg is?

4wd slows it down a little bit at the top end they actually launch pretty well in 2wd

Probably faster than my NA 3.7 in my F150. 🤣 I'm interested to see how these small displacement turbo truck engines do over the years, because it's pretty wild what they are capable of.

I have a 2021 GMC 2.7L. Traded in my 2017 GMC 5.3L lease. They had no V8's on the lot so I took the 2.7. I love this truck.

2.7 t silverado is no joke they have it in caddilac and it's crazy 2022 silverado 2.7 t has 420tq monster

exobeast for the win

I bought a 2022 2.7 Silverado after the AFM destroyed my 5.3 in my 2018 Silverado. Honestly am really impressed with the little truck engine. The low end torque is very diesel like. I did take the 2.7 ecoboost for a ride and yes it is much faster. To me it came down to value and towing capability. The ford had a 3:15 rear ratio and a 6500 pound towing capacity. The little 4 had a 9000 pound towing capacity which fits my camper much better. With the truck shortage you can only get what’s on the lot.

Believe it or not that is a very close time we got on our truck at Lancaster speedway in New York. It’s a 1/8 mile track. With 2 people best time 9.69 @ 71mph

Press and hold traction control to take off stability control as well

Man a tune on that truck could probably make some impressive gains

Love your Vids!

My 3.5 raptor will kill that junk

What kind of truck do I have? 2002 Silverado 4x4 with a 4.8 LS motor. 224k miles. Gets around 18-19 mpg. Rusty but very trusty. I know people with these engines that got 400k miles out of them. My little 4.8 feels way stronger than my previous Ford 5.4 2 valve and a Dodge hemi 2006 with high miles.

My stock 2020 2.7 RCSB the best I got was a 9.4 in 4hi at the 8th with a shit reaction time and with zero clue tf I was doing

4cy are for civics. 6cy are for sedans and small trucks. Turbos are added to help add power. A 4cy turbo in a truck is guna burn out

Ford for the win!

RAM 2014 5.7 hemi just exhaust 15.091 1/4mile Cadillac srx2014 stock 15.001 1/4mile

BLUE OVAL 🏁☝️

My stock 2018 F-150 2.7L SCSB FX4 turns 1/4 in 14.5 0-60 = 5.9 seconds on 93 octane

The Ford took you to gapplebees

I wonder how the 2022 GM 2.7 would do now that it has 80 more ft. lbs. of torque? I just bought a regular cab short bed 4x4 GMC with the 2.7 and 3.42 gears. Really impressed with it so far.

1/8th mile? Come on!! Let's do the full 1/4 mile.

Ecoboost are beasts I still like the looks of the Silverado 🥲

For a four banger racing a V6 it ain't bad. Probably could get tons more power out of that Four pot tho.

You cannot run the cheap gas if you’re gonna run a turbo vehicle. I saw an article on car driver were they tested the Ford eco-boost trucks with cheap 91 gas in California versus good 93 gas from the East Coast. It was a noticeable difference in those two points. Let alone 5-6 points if you can get 93 versus 87. It was as significant as 2 to 3 tenths from the 0 to 60 up till like up to/over a half second in a quarter mile. remember that was just a difference from 91 to 93… These trucks are smart enough to instantly read the fuel and all the acting and retard the timing anytime I see that nation specially depending on if you’ve got crappy fuel winter blend is going to be worse than summer fuel anyways, there’s probably a considerable amount of performance to be gained in that Chevy by running premium fuel and adding an octane booster. Now mind you if you do the same thing in the Ford I believe the Ford truck is still gonna be faster I’m just trying to give you some tips on how to make your Chevy run better if that’s what you’re after. winter fuel 87 octane is probably the worst thing you can run in that truck with a turbo it probably detonates so early in making power that I love to see what it makes on the Dino versus what it’s advertised right now. I’m actually considerably under powered right now.

If the Chevy 2.7 is anything like Ford's EB engines, the ECU will definitely retard the timing with 87 octane.

I have a 2018 2.7 eco boost cts 3 edge evolution tune I have no times to give yet it’s unreal thoe

2022 Silverado 2.7 high output stock 9.76

He had the chevy launch at 3k plus RPM. Not bad for stock converter

I goes today to racetrack with my new Silverado 23 2.7 with just 3400km. 1.98@60' 7.63@71.50MPH and 15.08@90.32MPH with 1617DA

Yeah you gotta bring something big to the plate for even a stock ecoboost. They’re nasty motors, even the baby 2.7. I think the 2.7 is underrated too because when my 3.5 was stock a stock 2.7 could hang door to door with me (identical 4wd crew cabs and both 10 speeds) until about 75mph then I’d slowly pull away. Anyways I’ve got a fully loaded 2017 3.5 ecoboost with the 10 speed. Bone stock I averaged 9.3 1/8 miles. I now have a 5 Star 93 octane tune and am in the high 7’s 1/8th mile. It’s beyond stupid fast now. 😂 Sooooooo much fun though.

Any forced induction motors gonna see a bit better performance with higher octane .. a good high flow air filter will help a lot ... I believe Diablo sport makes a tuner for that vehicle that will most likely put you in higher 8s flat 9s if the info draggy provided is accurate

Without the Diablo tune my car would run 10.2 to 10.0 with Diablo now it does 9.2

Hat on backwards and sun glasses, funny

The CT4 with the 2.7t is running even better numbers and it's an impressive engine. Any tunes out for this motor yet?

Interested in the new Hurricane 3.0 straight 6 twin turbo from Ram coming.

Seems as though a re run with both using the same gas is in order. I’ve owned many forced induction vehicles factory or not and most are tuned to advance spark and with dohc even possibly phase the cams to maximize power and efficiency. The vehicle will advance until it gets knock and then retards back slightly(protecting the engine from detonation). Of course the knock is pushed further away the higher thE octane is (reluctance to burn/ resist knock). Why e85 makes most power cheapest if properly utilized.

Yeah fords the fastest for sure my g

Wonder how bad my 2001 Silverado 5.3 would smoke the Chevy 2.7 turbo

Wonder what a 2022 Silverado 2.7 turbo would do considering it now has 420 pound-feet of torque .

Well I have a 2021 RAM TRX so yeah no need for me to run an 8th mile. I was at a red-light yesterday on niagara falls Blvd and this kid wanted to race me " I don't want to embarrass you in front of your girlfriend"

Ford trucks have a much more aggressive tune, Chevrolet is holding back.

Try the locked diff on the ford when in two wheel drive and launching, bet it would have done better on that run.

THat's cruisin for a heavy ass tank and a 4 Cyl. I have a 05 Impala SS with the dinosaur pushrod 3.8 iron block/iron heads , antiquated Eaton M90 Gen 3 supercharger with a 3.5" pulley, it only weighs 3600 pounds and it does 8.70s at 81mph in the 1/8th. My 96 standard cab, 2WD silverado with the old vortec 350 does low 7s 0-60, probably not as quick as this 4 cyl turbo.

Awesome video! I have a 2.7 silverado also... im wondering how much better adding an straight thru exhaust and a kn air filter will do? Stock exhaust is really restrictive.

Ford owns

So should I trade in my 5.3 for the 2.7 turbo? I feel like the 5.3 has way more too end.

😅he doesnt sa y it but the chevy is 2 wheel drive, im not a ford guy but the 2.7 is impressive.

My 1 wheel drive 2.7 ecoboost ran a 9.80 1/8 mile and a 14.88@ 96 mph

GM is selling the slowest of trucks,that just kills me,thanks Mary Barra.

I never run anything less than 93 in my 22 2.7 Silverado.

The 2.7 ford on paper has way more power then the chevy 2.7 but that's not the competition for the gm 2.7 ford's 3.3 na v6 is technically its competition. The 5.3 is the competition for fors 2.7.

The 2.7 gm is not bad

I've had a 2018 f150 2.7 Ecoboost and now a 2020 3.5 Ecoboost and you really should use 91 octane or higher turbos do not like cheap gas also you should get better gas mileage

Definitely a 1/4 tank of 93 with nothing but yourself in the cab would give you your best results from 0-60 but it will definitely not beat the 2.7 Ecoboost no matter what. The torque difference is too much to overcome.

Dang I went and took a shower in the time it took that to get to 60.

Use 50% 91 or 93 octane and 50% ethanol.

If you want fast for GM buy the 6.2 both the 5.3 and the 2.7 are decent motors but neither one are fast

Can you guys test with 91 octane and see if it gets faster.

Neither of these trucks in the video seem to launch as well as my 19 F150 2.7 does

turbo engines are the only way to go

You didn't take Stabilitrak off

Just a grippier set of tires and a KN drop in filter would make a noticeable difference. I’m pretty sure the 2WD version with its lower curb weight puts down better 0-60 times. There is a video of a guy running a 6.4 sec in a 2WD 2.7t

I won't buy a little 4 banger in a full size truck.

@716CarGuys Will you keep us posted if you find a tune for the 2.7l turbo 4 cylinder Silverado??

Which big block engine was in the 91 Chevy pickup?

If it was gear higher it would probably do lot better like if it was a 5speed or 6speed manual transmission. Would be good I bet that Chevy thow pulling a load it would go faster then the ford pulling a trailer

As usual, the Ford is faster.

My stock 2001, 5.3 4x4 double cab ran 10.2...lol

The ford is aluminum weighs 700lbs less than Chevy

Why are you doing 0 to 60s with 3 people in the truck? smh

Ford truck is lighter than Chevy plus more HP not surprised.

My truck runs 8.1 at 88 mph with e85 in it I'd love to try and find a srt10 truck to race

I don't have a draggy but at Empire my 2007 Escalade went like 9.8 in the 1/8 I believe (I'll have to find the time slip) So I'm impressed with the lil 4 banger, and now a lil scared to run one 😂

1/8 mile? That’s not a drag race! At least do a 1/4 or better yet 1 kilometer. 2020 F150 2.7, and I’ll take you in the 1/4!

1/8 mile? Lololololols! That's like 300 feet

u know racing with the windows down leads to drag....

The updated GM 2.7 is faster since it has more low end torque. It’s an underrated engine.

Been running 94 octane in my 2021 f150 with the 2.7 ecoboost it feels a lot quicker. Try running high octane in the chevy 2.7 you will notice a big difference

The GM2.7 is a turd for sure

Ford Power!!! Chevy is heavy and gutless.

Try take your air filter out and race again see

ls v8 is unkillable, that 2.7 prob die after towing 8k lbs for 2 years

Try with the new 2.7 from gm. 430ft lbs torque

Appreciate the shoutout once again bro. Like he said check out Rhinos and aliens podcast, and give us feedback on if you like the podcast or not all criticism is good criticism. kzfaq.info

just got a 22' LT 2.7 and it would probably keep up with the ford now that they made the redesigned 2.7 chevy @ 420tq

One main question did the chevy win?

you lost me at 1/8 mile....

My Corollas touch screen is bigger than this silverados!

SAF

Drag racing trucks is just silly.

Why 1/8th mile? Do 1/4 mile times and mph.
