Man the 2.7 boogies with that tuner! I figured it would. Gotta see what it does with 35s since Buttercup #1 was on 35s when you did the test if I recall. Makes me wish I had gotten a 2.7 a little bit. But I’m really happy with my 2.3 with my Ford Performance Tune, Turbosmart blowoff valve, and K&N air intake!

Also you need to launch in 2nd gear with 4WD auto. Brake boost up to about 4psi. You should get in the 6s. Also you might need some time for your knock adjust to get used to the 93octane. If you load it up on your gauges from the tuner you want as close to -1 as possible. If it’s above zero you can reset it with the diagnostics function.

Yeah although It costs a bit more, premium unleaded is the ticket. With the two-door Bronco, performance increases by just over a full second. But I don't really care, I had a couple Taurus SHO's in my recent past and with those toys came my fair share of speeding tickets smh. I prefer the versatility, function & looks of the four door big time over the two-door. Anyhoo, I noticed in my 2020 Silverado 6.2l I see a lot fewer tail lights than if I go with something like mid-grade. But the funny thing is my dash read out that shows miles to empty- My average (miles to empty) goes up a bit when I use premium. A nice perk 😁. But she's a lease I'm turning in soon.... Going to be joining Bronco Nation soon... booyah!! This toy I'm keeping 🤘😎👍. I even prematurely named her "Amy" in regards to Amy Lee from Evanescence 🎸 .... I just hope that sound system (lux pkg B&O premium) in Amy is up to my high standards or else imma have to upgrade the sounds 🔊

I’m really confused people are getting mid 6’s 0-60 on stock 2.7’s w/sas with no tune including private owners and professional publications. Something is not right at all here.

Don't the instructions also say it needs to be installed by a Ford dealer or ASE/Red Seal certified technician to get or retain the 3 year/36k mile warranty from new vehicle in-service when installed ?

@edsmith4549 Жыл бұрын

IMO you are getting all excited about the relatively small performance gain from the Ford Performance tuner but not also adding an additional tuner like the JB4 that makes a real difference. I am running both the JB4 and Ford, have a new catback exhaust, and air intake. By far the thing that makes the largest performance gain is the JB4. Noticeably more than all the others combined.

Very nice! Isn’t your 2.3 L numbers also at a slight disadvantage because you had 35s on the 2.3, and have 33s on 2.7? Maybe it’s off set by the air in take and exhaust on the 2.3?

@dannymarcano9268 10 ай бұрын

Does it affect the warranty? What kind of blow off valve and cold air intake do you have on the 2.3 ? And are you putting the same one on the 2.7 ?

@BuckleUpButtercupTV 10 ай бұрын

You can have your dealer put it on and it doesn’t do anything with your warranty. On my 2.3 I did corsa intake and exhaust. And turbosmart bov. I haven’t decided if I will go with the same intake and exhaust yet, I might venture and try something different

You should have went with Livernois. FP used them to create their tunes. FP are just less potent. I had Livernois in my 2021 Ranger and now in my 2022 F-150 2.7. It's a huge difference!
