  1. Why is the 2.7 tuned down HP wise in the Bronco compared to other Ford/Lincoln models?

    Two turbos actually. You can get decent gains with the stock turbos
  2. Why is the 2.7 tuned down HP wise in the Bronco compared to other Ford/Lincoln models?

    Yep and it’s a simple tune away from a nice addition of power. The same engine but the exhaust or intake setup can take away some of the power potential. Whatever that looks like aftermarket will also have a nice solution to free up breathing and aid in power increase as well. We have to also...

  7. Tuning the 2.7L Bronco engine

    The purpose of a catch can or air/ oil separation system is to get the oil out of the intake track which is detrimental to fuel octane performance. It degrades the fuel mix effectively lowering the octane rating and inducing knock. They have been in use on both N/A and turbo cars for years...
  8. WildTrak vs. Badlands vs. OBX

    I prefer fabric seats for better butt grip. I think the leather and MGV might be a bit hot as well in the summer.

    It is on the driver seat too. Just not as pronounced at the angle and lighting. Bronco6g website limits the image size so it gets lost. Go to BN and see the larger image and you will see it.
  11. 2.7l and 10 speed reliabilty, turbos shot at 40k

    Simple question. Not asking for his recommendation. Just looking for failure causes
  12. 2.7l and 10 speed reliabilty, turbos shot at 40k

    What engine oil have you been running in the F150? It sounds like bearing wear on the turbo shaft. It’s got side play in it which makes me question the lubrication. Turbos spin very fast relative to the engine RPM. Your turbo is spinning over 50,000 RPMs routinely, even when not under boost...

  15. Does the 2.7L Ecoboost require premium gas?

    They do. All are rated with the best fuel. It’s even that way on our NA 2.0 in our ecosport which is far from a sports car. There is a general statement that maximum power ratings are based on premium fuel.
  16. Does the 2.7L Ecoboost require premium gas?

    Ford automatically adjusts timing and other things so that it can safely run anything from 87-93. You will benefit from 93. Motor hp and torque ratings are based on premium fuel. Our 2019 Mustang GT has 12:1 compression and is still capable of running on 87 with Ford detuning strategy. The...

    They aren’t inserts actually. It’s the inside of the actual door. The panel trim is cut out to show it.
  18. International Off-Road Expo: Bronco Photos and Q&A Answers (UPDATED)

    The manufacturers push it off as a maintenance thing for the owners who don’t realize this. The manufacturers are improving their direct injection by adding port injection as well. The main injectors are still direct injection but the port injectors are utilized to keep the backside of the...
  19. International Off-Road Expo: Bronco Photos and Q&A Answers (UPDATED)

    Oh it’s there. My son had a focus ST. Melted a piston at 78k miles. I rebuilt the whole thing with forged internals. Had carbon buildup on the valves big time.
  20. International Off-Road Expo: Bronco Photos and Q&A Answers (UPDATED)

    The 2.3 was originally just a NA motor and so was the 3.5. They added turbocharging. The 2.7 was developed as a turbo motor from the beginning. Do some reading on the 2.7. It’s the better motor. I have rebuilt the 2.0 eco boost which is just a slightly smaller version of the 2.3. Not what I want...
