Default LOVE 4x4 Ecoboost LAUNCHING!!!

After having an FX2 for a year+ and now having the FX4, MAN what a huge difference. Can't wait to tune it and check it out. No tire spin is AWESOME!
Geno we'll have to head to the track in Tucson one of these days!

Launches better on the street than at the track, at least for me. I've had two 1.8 60' with this truck and the rest 1.9-2.0. It Barks all 4, shakes and hops like crazy. Feels like the truck is breaking. I miss my dodge diesel 4x4 launches. 1.7s all day smooth as silk. I look forward to what you'll be doing with your truck.

I really wish I got the 4x4. My 4x2 with the Livernois tune just burns the tires off though 1-2nd.

In my wife's old FX2 we couldn't even floor it in 2nd without it spinning hard, axle wrap and wheel hop, IT WAS AWEFUL!
Love the 4x4 for the ability to get the traction to the ground!!!
I'm looking into the Raptor mod to allow me to install a switch to keep the E-locker locked over 20 MPH for future power levels....

I think coreyMS has done it, shoot him a PM. When you do I think you should do a write-up at the same time??
