Hi everyone, I am currently in a process of upgrading my 2006 f150 with a newer 08-14 F150. These trucks are available with regular V8 and new-to-me ecoboost. I like the last one because of the mileage, because good old V8 is pretty thirsty even if you're not towing. I realize that the downside of the ecoboost may be lower towing capacity. Does any one tow with ecoboost, would be glad to hear a real life feedback. Also do you have any experience with perofrmance tuners for towing https://www.carid.com/2015-ford-f-150-perfo...-216923605.html . According to description it can give about +30-40TQ from an ecoboost, which makes it nearly equal to 5.0
Thanks, Tom |
