Ya I would say you spanked the tundie lol

 

If they aren't boost launching in a drag race they're doing it wrong.
That's because they were doing it wrong. This is what happens when you boost launch.
6.2 vs ecoboost - YouTube

 

That is a very very close race to the 6.2, as was the previous....

Boosted launch or not, the 3.5 ecoboost is awesome for what it is and what it does, and certainly out performs the 5.0.

I would even go so far as to say it out performs the 6.2..... Very close performance and a ton better mileage, worth something.

 

my ecoboost beats my cousins 5.0 bad and he has a superchips programer and dual exhaust and mine is stock. i also raced a reg cab 5.7 tundra and beat it.

 

The 5.0L and Ecoboost are actually pretty close as seen here...

And here...

2011 ecoboost vs 2012 5.0 F150 race 1/4 pt4 - YouTube

In the first video the Ecoboost wasn't spooled properly, however it was spooled properly in the second one. Both trucks are crew cabs and the 5.0L has 3.55 gears to the Ecoboosts 3.73's. If anything comparing these video clips to the 6.2L vs Ecoboost clips, I would say that at the very least the 5.0L performs just as strongly as the Ecoboost and 6.2L, sure the Ecoboost might tow a little better because of its Turbo's and the 6.2L might tow a little better because of its sheer displacement, but I'm talking about regular unloaded and/or lightly loaded driving.

Also here's another clip of a 5.0L racing a Hemi Ram and a 5.3L Chevrolet Silverado. According to the description the 5.0L has a K&N drop in air filter and duel exhaust, The Hemi has a K&N CAI and duel exhaust, and the 5.3L Chevy is factory stock. It should also be noted that the Hemi Dodge in this clip is a 2012 model with the 6-Speed auto.

And here's a clip of a lightly modded F-150 5.0L racing a stock (I beleive) 5.7L Tundra.

lol that chevy should stay home next time

 

Yeah, its kinda like picking on your little brother.

 

I'm sorry but these videos are useless

 

That Chev 5.3 is a gutless turd. Not even in the same ball park as the competition. I'm happy with any of the new Ford motors, though I'd hate to pay the gas bill for the 6.2.

 

I'm kinda surprised, 5.3 is a decent size! I don't know much about chev, I think I will keep it that way

 

The 4.8 chev motor is tougher that some people realise.

Theres an article somewhere and they got 1000 HP out of it with turbochargers and the engine was basically stock.

 

Useless in the sence that these trucks aren't designed for drag racing outta the box? I agree 100%.

But what these videos do provide is a good visual representation of how one truck stacks up to another. At the very least the provide some entertainment value. The 5.0L vs Ecoboost clip is a good one for comparison though, The trucks are for the most part equally equipped and each clip shows a race with an improperly spooled turbo and a properly spooled turbo, vs the N/A 5.0L.

 

One person in this thread remarked on how much heavier an F-150 is over the Tundra. I've often wondered this as I have parked my F-150 next to a bone stock '07+ Tundra and was amazed how small the Tundra makes my F-150 look. It's almost like parking an F-150 net to a Ranger or Dakota Lol.

I agree about the weight though, as I've driven a newer Tundra, it's "feels" lighter than it looks like it should.

 

Maybe it is an illusion caused by the tundie's over-bloated body lines

 

Its simply an illusion as stated above.

Got the spec's right here.

(Tundra Crewmax 2X4)
Overall height - 75.6
Overall width - 79.9
Overall length - 228.7
Wheelbase - 145.7

Curbweight = 5243lbs

(F-150 Supercrew 2X4)
Overall height - 76.7
Overall width - 79.2
Overall length - 231.9
Wheelbase - 144.5

Curbweight = 5345lbs

Pulled these off both manufactures websites. Of course its all circumstantial, but the point is that both trucks are practically equal in both size and weight when configured the same. I do agree that the Tundra's bloated looking body probably contributes to the illusion that its a bigger vehicle when its actually not.
