own a 12 f150 ecoboost 3.5 with deleted exhaust, resonator, pretty much straight piped just still has the cats on. Have a intake, catch can, and SCT CUSTOM tune ssi3. I run 93 premium always, and all maintenance is up to date always.

Now in the 1/8 mile track I ran a 8.825 at 77 mph in 4x4 shooting off at around 2300 rpm launch 🚀 in miami hot weather night of 88 degrees.
With all jokes aside lol don't make fun of me just after a race with someone i can't stand.
Anything that will get my truck in the flat 8s or high 7s would be my ideal area I wanna be in

 

Remove your interior?

 

Re gear for 1/8 but will kill at MPG at hiway speed.

 

I'd buy a Kawasaki H2 and taunt the hell out of your mortal enemy.

 

That would be over kill lol just need to see what will get me into flat 8s or high 7s in 1/8 . He is running 8.235 on nitrous

 

Free weight loss ideas are to leave your tailgate, spare tire, and all clutter you normally keep in the truck at home.

Rather than regear, get a set of lightweight wheels and smaller diameter tires just for the track. It's the same effect as regearing, but you can just throw them on for heading to the drag strip....plus, it'll lower the truck a bit and might help your aerodynamics.

 

If you are actually serious then you need to upgrade your turbos.

 

Anyway other way without upgrading turbos, maybe bigger throttlebody and charge pipe idk

 

You will soon realize two more things:

1. The next amount of power your 3.5 might create will soon not be enough. It never is. I recommend you set a power goal and stick to it or you'll chase your tail and never see satisfaction.

2. At some point, again, soon, the two small turbochargers will become a restriction. While they do a fantastic job on a factory-stock engine (425 lb/ft? on yours and 470 lb/ft for '18?!), they're small. They're small so that they spool quickly, with less lag time. That's why they work so well in this application.

 

All being equal a 2.7 will smoke a 3.5 for an 1/8 due to faster spool up Bigger Snails will slow spool time. jmo
