I ran an 11.90 in my ecoboost, but you've gotta remember i did it in a state where the DA dips below 0. I went back to try to get a better pass and it happened to go to the track on a no prep event night so that ruined it for me. It hooked out the hole after a good burnout but it shifted to 2nd gear and blew the tires down after the shift.

When i ran 11.90:
2017 3.5 ecoboost f150 2WD 3.15 rear end
Detroit Trutrac
VAS traction bars
Wagner Intercooler
170 thermostat
Mickey Thompson 305/45/18 ET Street R radials
Tuned on E50 by me and my buddy
Things i've added since that pass, Viking double adjustable shocks, VAS shock angle relocate, catless downpipe, 3" exhaust
The exhaust mods, i want to stress this, picked up basically zero horsepower. They just lowered the stress on my turbocharger and drastically lowered the turbine wheelspeed.

Hi all, new to the forum. Currently have a 3.5L ecoboost that I have tuned (MPT) and running E30, I love the truck but want more power, I take it to the strip often and do consistent 13-13.2 with a 12.996 being my best. I was going to go water meth to get more out of it then read some data on supercharging the 5.0 and people getting into the 11's. I am in Boise Idaho at 2700 ft roughly. Any feedback and people running the 5.0 with a whipple or VMP breaking into the 11s with a similar DA?
Considering just trading it in. (I have an evo that I autocross with, no room or desire for a straight up drag car).
Thanks for any input!
