Default Performance Modifications. Ecoboost.

What are you guys planning to Add to your 2015 Ecoboost trucks. Has anyone added anything yet?

For previous Ecoboost owners, what was the best mod you did, leaving tuners out of the equation.

Not a thing beyond an RX Catch Can w/ Dual Check Valve. I wouldn't feel comfortable owning a direct injection engine long term without a good catch can of some sort.

Sorry no mod better than a tuner.... Nothing you can do to add real,performance or mpg other than a tuner.

Is there a way to avoid loosing the warranty with the tuner? With so much technology and being an early build I want to keep it on the safe side.

I was thinking of getting a Roush Air Intake and Roush exhaust.

You could ask if there's a ProCal tune (or tunes) available for the EB in the F150. They're marketing it for the Focus ST and Fiesta ST and I'm sure they'll have it for the EB Mustang if they don't already. It's a Ford product and it's warranted, at least on approved platforms and tunes.

Have you selected models and brands or still analyzing?

Intakes on the eb haven't added any power or mpg. Cat back exhaust is minimal at best but adds sound. Down pipe with high flow cats or no cats and a tune are the best two mods for power and would have you in the 12s in a 1/4 mile since a tune only 13/14 eb can run 13 flat in 1/4...and you weigh less.

You're out of your mind. More like 15 flat with a tune...
