I was thinking either turbo or supercharger. Either way, she'll be able to push 35s so I'd be happy.

I'm not a brain surgeon though so I'd have to get a local shop to install it. Well, that and I'm sure when I'm ready to buy one I'll have a belly that will insist on getting in the way...

I used to be all about superchargers but the spool on a turbo is almost instant vs the supercharge spool. Just a matter of preference. Oh you should google........ here watch this

Maybe later I'll pick one up. But for the current price of one I'd rather get another diesel maybe in a king ranch for the same price as one of those sweet monsters. My username tho has nothing to do with the Ford Raptor. It has more to do with the dinosaur. I am a big fan of the Velociraptor or Raptor. And when I heard Ford was making a truck called the Raptor oh man I was way excited haha.

I've thought about the Raptors but I think they are way over priced for what you get. Just my opinion though.

I'd much rather buy a diesel and have significantly more power with only a little bit of tweaking.

Afternoon NM. Just got back from the Dr. for the baby check up and it appears that we are having another little boy! Now I just need to figure out what we are going to name him....
