[QUOTE="stang99x, post: 16746504, member: 169847"] Yea no. First off, a twin turbo factory Raptor has been tweaked fully by Ford. Different heads, tune etc. Not to mention it's a $100k truck designed for offroad vs what a gen 2 whipple standard f150 that is half the price when they are on what, gen 5 whipples?. It's well known that a gen 5 whipple can pull 1000hp from a stock mustang......perhaps not live long but doable. This is like comparing the Ford Aspire to the Ford Mustang, since they are both Fords. (And I have the insight having a gen 1 whipplecharged stang and a 17 EB F150) Take that 2015 F150 and spend the extra $50k price of the Raptor on weight reductions, power increases and bulletproof it. Then compare the two. Seriously, you can't compare a newer top end model to standard run of the mill version with a blower strapped on and expect the same thing from them. Did the 2015 get millions of dollars in research to make sure the blower and engine were in perfect tune with one another? Hell no. We all know the suspension of the Raptor is what makes it what it is, combined with the huge increase in power. And anyone I know who owns a Raptor isn't driving it through the trail. They buy an old one and build it for that. All these rich snobs aren't risking their $100k truck getting scratched. [/QUOTE]
