honestly, the power levels the '18s are handling on stock internals, i'd go twin turbo with 4wd. just nasty, nasty fast.

Until you come across a tuned focus RS, then it's pretty hard to stay far enough out lol.

Knowing how my truck launches, I’d put money on the F150.

Can't get a good trade in value.The dealer says a 2015 RCSB 2wd don't exist. Only give me $17,000 for it I would need at least $30,000.

I'm with you. brake boosting in 4hi sport mode even on 3.31s this thing gets to it.

You know how a tuned ecoboost 4x4 launches right? Well, still stayed right next to the truck off the line and got him on top end.

I talk about it from seeing it, not because i'm dreaming lol.

Tuned EB's launch pretty hard. Not near as hard as the NOS launch, but still pretty stout for sure. Supercharged F150's, at least the ones I've seen launch harder. I don't know what gears, but the one I saw really moved off the line.
