5.0 vs PB runs

[diambo4life]

The best 0-60 I ever got when I was stock was 5.65s and that was in very very negative DA.

Welp, I completely forgot that I have a Dragy.. I'll try to get some times with the 93 octane tune in the coming days. IIRC, stock 0-60 is in the 5.3 range for the PB.

Finding a place around here that's not full of traffic or nuns carrying baby kittens is sometimes difficult though.

Even 300lbs makes a huge difference in seat of the pants too.

I drove a PB with 32" tires at 5665 lbs, then a Platinum PB with 33" tires at 5964 lbs. I could feel the Platinum was significantly slower.

The PB @ 5665lb in 4a & sport mode was silly fun merging into traffic. Especially after adding a sway bar on.

Weight matters, for sure. Also, EVERYONE should put on a rear sway. It makes the truck feel way more planted, especially for its size.

No TV or fridge for me, I need to make a bonfire and put the food in the snowy bed to keep it from expiring

You have a great truck and it’s Alien approved!

While the powerboost is great for its abilities, I, for one, love a good bonfire. Also, having spent some time in some really cold locations, the outdoor fridge and freezer is enough for me. Ya just need to pick up on the timing to keep cold vs freezing!

I wonder what the weight difference is between the two trucks, 302A vs a 502A. We all know the powertrain and frame are heavier on a PB but I am not even considering that.

That was my first thought as well

Your truck is exactly 600lbs heavier than mine! I have oem 18's, so the PB is around 525lbs over the 3.5.

Cool! OEM 20s with my Sport pkg. Tow technology pkg. Tailgate step. Bed lighting.

It's amazing how 570lb./ft. can get it moving in a hurry...

No surprises here, no turbo lag mitigation w/ any of the turbo'd F150s. Need load for boost. If you want to do a 15mph roll, drag the brakes. The PB would have backhanded the 5.0 even harder at 15mph w/ a competent driver. Only EVs can turn novices into acceleration warriors.

I have the bed utility (step and lighting package) and the regular towing package with the brake controller and backup assist. Just no 360 camera package.

It's not the 570 ft lbs. It's the Rapid Red paint.

You should add racing stripes and a few stickers.

Absolutely!

NICE! E-85 tune 14th gen 5.0L Platinum vs 93 tune 2nd gen Raptor. The 5.0 on E-85 runs down the 3.5 HO every run. No beating E-85! In part 1 the 5.0 won a few rounds on 93 but from a dig the Raptor was doing better simply put. Pumping E-85 in the 5.0 changed that up real fast. Bear in mind the big rubber raptors run. Man the Raptor sounds like a TURD with that dual exhaust though.

Impressive. The direct injection makes a huge impact when dealing with E85
