We finally ran it at track last night. our 2018 F150 2.7L Ecoboost ran 12.34 @ 113.44 mph in the 1/4 mile last night! We are very happy with that for the first time at the track with these mods on a 5000 lb truck. We have another session planned to see if there is 3 more tenths in it.
Mods List
CR Performance Stage 3 Turbos
SPD DP w/ Hi Flo Cats
SPD Mid Pipe with Res
Magnaflow 3 inch exhaust
Mishimoto Inter Cooler
S&B Intake

My 2017 XL STX extended cab has:
S&B CAI
BBK 65mm throttle body
Mishimoto IC
Magnaflow muffler
CTS2 GAS Evolution tuner
Running on the stock 20" wheels wrapped with Yokohama Parada Spec-X 275/55r/20's. Nice tires at a good price if anyone is interested.
Putting a hard tonneau cover has also helped by reducing drag. The STX has a Mishimoto oil cachement system installed and a Mishimoto complete pipe kit could not fit around the S&B CAI. .
Stage 3 turbos are planned but won't be happening for a while. Can't do it all at once as this stuff ain't cheap. Hope to get a date with a dyno soon. It's super-quick off the line and stupid fast now that the speed limiter has been,"modified ".
Here in California the cats and mid pipes are sketchy. They may not have CARB #'s. If you see our smog you'll understand why. Looking down on the LA basin from the mountains on an inversion it looks like a witches brew. So many cars in such a tight space.
I can only imagine what your ride must be like. I run some V100 once a month, 5 to 10 gallons mixed with 91 octane. At $9.89/gallon a full tank ain't possible. With V100 and in race tune my STX really moves. It beats most badly and runs with just about anybody but not everyone. Pretty good for a little motor in a heavy truck.
Barona has an ⅛th mile track and does street races but the season is closed. That 8.05 number is impressive though. I'll be interested to see what my rig runs with my fat butt in it. If I do make a pass & remember I'll come back to post my time.
