The compression side of the turbos, and the tune, is different. And thats it. Doesn't take much with turbo engines.

I thought there was more but couldn't find my source. If I find it I will update this thread.

I've watched a few videos on the new Raptor but the below is one of the better ones showing the power and capability it has. It is one BAD *** truck!

That's a great video. I'd have a hard time stomaching that in a $65K truck though!

Manifold, exhaust and larger turbos as said above, those are the only differences. The Ford GT is NOT the same 3.5l, it's built. Be interesting to see the long term reliability lugging a heavy truck like the raptor around. Many raptor guys don't exactly baby their trucks.
