TRMN8TR Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 Drop in K&N and a tune, beyond that you’re wasting your $$$$$$$$ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dukhaykh Posted October 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 I am thinking seriously about TURBO kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 (edited) turbo kits are expensive when properly done, and will still push the engine towards a shorter life/less reliaibility. Plus the transmission is not really built to handle too much more power anyway. You are better off maintaining fluids on a special operating conditions schedule, then adding the tune. Perhaps CAI/Exhaust/BBK TB also if you have the 3.7L engine. A dropin filter upgrade is just as effective as a CAI as noted by TRMN8TR by the way, even on Ecoboost engines. The K&N CAI can add sound, but also heatsoak issues. These engines run HOT. If you turbo it, you have to tune anyway. Really don't recommend it unless you a) tear down and rebuild/blueprint the engine, b] improve the stock rotating internals, and c) build a deckplate to close off the open deck configuration http://www.supersixmotorsports.com/_pdf/2018/SSM2018CycloneEcoBoostTwinTurboInstallationKitRev1.pdf Talk with the guys at supersixmotorsports.com if you want to do it right.

I wouldn't expect it would cost around $3500!! that is really expensive. I even doubt that the EcoBoost turbo would fit in the Edge engine since there is not enough room. While I am searching on Ebay I found an Universal Electric Turbo Supercharger! has anyone tried them on EDGE? WWWPerfA_ZN0W, thank you so much for your replay.

TheWizard Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 A less expensive alternative 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 The only way to go from here is to go trade it for a 2015 Sport and get it tuned. Anything else is a waste of money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Fits the 3.7, cannot confirm on the 3.5. I think they use the same intake manifold, so chances are very good. https://www.bbkperformance.com/mustang-v6-ecoboost-3-7-f150-73mm-throttle-body-11-17.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dukhaykh Posted October 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2018 What about the Performance Chips and OBDII Programmers devices? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted October 22, 2018 Report Share Posted October 22, 2018 A custom tune is the only way 2 go IMHO. Such as from UnleashedTuning.com (Torrie). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
