Tuner for 2012 EcoBoost
#11
Im not looking to break any records. Just want a tune with the supporting mods (CAI, exhaust, possibly a downpipe, but they are rather expensive). Thanks for the info guys. If anyone has any more info I would appreciate it

Not sure what downpipes you are looking at, but ours is one of the cheaper and most responsive mods you can do on your ecoboost truck.

SCT tuner first, that's a given. After that, a 170 degree thermostat and tune will help manage temps. A 3" catless Y-pipe is good for 15-20HP on top of an already tuned truck. Then, a better intercooler to help further manage temps. After that, water/meth injection... more power, cleans up the TB and everything else in its path, relatively inexpensive. We'll have a nice meth kit available in a few days with CNCed billet brackets specific to the F150. Intake and catback help, just not quite as noticeably, but they sure can sound good.

Thanks. But no way in hell will I ever spray water into an engine. 100% meth will work. Tuner will happen first. Not sure if I am crazy about doing a methanol injection yet. I dont really plan on racing my truck.

They have been using water/meth since World War II

you just contradicted 2 of the single best mods you can do to the ecoboost. 170 the stat works wonders for anyone who doesn't live in Canada and even more so with a cat less midpipe.....and that is one of the most ridiculous comments I've seen claiming a*cat less midpipe is less than noticeable. *no offense*
