Questions on Ecoboost F150

[hungerbuhler1]

I ordered a new 2013 F150 with Ecoboost for my girlfriend about a month ago. It's coming in on the week of 24th so i wanted to have all the stuff here.

Im debating on lifting it 6" or putting a 2" leveling kit with bigger tires. Does anyone have either? Post pictures if you do.

Also wanting to do exhaust, intake and programmer. Anyone have suggestions on these? I dont want stupid loud but i did hear one on youtube that sounded like a TR which was ok.

I would offer an opinion but it would be apples to oranges. Brothers got a f350 super duty non dually and got the leveling kit for it. I forget the manufacturer too. It looks pretty dam good with bigger tires and all.

Can't help much with exhaust or intake info since most of my ecoboost experience is with the car side. But, as for spot on expert for tuning, go with: http://www.livernoismotorsports.com/
They've got all the ecoboost motor tunes spot on, and customer service is top notch also.

They've also got exhaust for it. http://www.livernoismotorsports.com...150-EcoBoost/2011%2d13-F150-EcoBoost-Exhaust/

And intake stuff! http://www.livernoismotorsports.com...0-EcoBoost/2011%2d13-F150-EcoBoost-Induction/

when I get back to work Monday I will send pics of both. we have built several. If you go with a 6" kit be sure and use fabtech as they are working with Ford and does not violate your warranty. Any programmer will void warranty if engine fails. And if you remove it, the computer will still show it was there. It's the first thing they have us check. Exhaust is ok as long as it is cat back.

I have seen a few driving around but want to see sitting still. Fabtech is normally what i use. Thanks for that info.

I would check out the "heartthrob exhaust" web site for exhaust, they boast some pretty decent numbers. You'll love the truck, I have a 2012 and it tows great!

Yes get tire size. It looks to be the 2" leveling kit. Looks sharp!

Just bought a new black ecoscrew myself. Was planning on just leveling and some bigger tires on the oem 20's. Now you have me thinking about new rims again......

 

[hungerbuhler1]

Just realized that the truck will be 7 lug and there arent too many options out that i like so i might keep factory rims and just do bigger tires with the leveling kit.

[hungerbuhler1]

mine are 6 lug

I ordered the 6 1/2' bed which is 7700 series so it has 7 lug.

 

[kurt24]

Is that new for this year? Maybe. I have max towing and still 6 maybe they had problems and beefed them up. like to see pics when you get it

 

[hungerbuhler1]

Not sure if it's new to this year. Is yours long bed? All I was told was long bed was in that 7700 series package.
