Oil eater.
Can the stop/start, starter-eating feature be deleted?
We had a Jeep Grand Cherokee rental in Florida and it drove us nuts.

There are many ways to permanently deactivate it, buy why? It's literailly saving you money while sitting in traffic.

My friend who works for Ford says the 350hp tune is awesome in the Ranger. That should off-set the power lost from going to 33 inch tires.


Do it!!!!!! I promise you that you will not regret it!!

Also, you can upgrade the turbo you can push 450-500 whp, if you feel like dropping the cash.

The output for the 2.3L EcoBoost engine covers a really wide range depending on the vehicle. There is plenty of power left on the table when they roll off the assembly line.

280 hp (209 kW; 284 PS) @ 5600 rpm, 310 lb⋅ft (420 N⋅m) @ 3000 rpm
2016–2017 Ford Explorer

285 hp (213 kW; 289 PS) @ 5500 rpm, 305 lb⋅ft (414 N⋅m) @ 2750 rpm
2015– Lincoln MKC

310 hp (231 kW; 314 PS) @ 5500 rpm, 320–350 lb⋅ft (434–475 N⋅m) @ 3000 rpm
2015– Ford Mustang EcoBoost

350 hp (261 kW; 355 PS) @ 6000 rpm, 350 lb⋅ft (475 N⋅m) @ 3200 rpm
2016– Ford Focus RS[48]
2016- Zenos E10 R[49]

385 hp (287 kW; 390 PS) @ 6000 rpm, 369 lb⋅ft (500 N⋅m) @ 3200 rpm
2016–2017 VUHL 05 RR


The 2.3 comes with forged pistons, rods, and crank as well as other goodies carried over from the Focus RS. It can hold hundreds more HP/TQ than Ford ever builds it with.

This is kind of why I'm thinking the Ranger Raptor may just use a tuned version of this engine vs the bigger 2.7, lots of overhead capacity with the 2.3 and similar to the HO 3.5 vs std. 3.5 used in the F150.

While I would looooove to see a 2.7 under the hood, the 2.3 can be tuned to reliably provide an obnoxious amount of power.

The 2.3 has the same limitation as the 2.7 and 3.5... you will exceed the limits of the OEM fuel system long before you will damage the motor. Fortunately you can buy aftermarket pumps that will produce the required flow, unfortunately they come with a big price tag.

Out of curiosity, got a link?
