Upgrade

I'm considering buying a 2011 F150 Ecoboost and putting a 6 inch lift with 35 inch tires. What kind of gas mileage can I expect? Thanks for your help.

Id like to hear from someone whos done it on a EB but I lifted my last chevy with the same set up and only lost about 1.5 mpg around town and about the same on the hwy. I would think you would by percentage loose a little more with the EB than a V8, as the trubos are going to be working harder to pull the extra mass. Im sure it will pull it great but this is when the EB would loose more of its advantage in the MPG game.

the ecoboost seems to be sensitive to increased ride height and aggressive tires.

unsprung weight will definitely affect the mpgs of a turbo setup

My suggestion..DON'T do it unless you just absolutely have to. It will kill the mileage and overall performance of the truck. That said...I lifted three 1 ton diesels before figuring this out...

I lifted mine 4 inches with 35's and its not good. I'm now getting 19L/100km with 50/50 city and highway. The turbos are now louder then before just because the engine is working harder then stock.
