Awesome, it is about time! The gains are what I expected. Perfect use for the stimulus check!

Based on what I paid for my 2018, and assuming $415.00 RWHP on good 93 octane, I paid $86.00 per HP.

This FRPP upgrade is $63.00 per HP, not a bad deal overall, especially with a 40+ ft. lbs. of torque improvement at 2K and 20 HP on top. You'll feel the low end torque hit.

That is perhaps the most analytically analysis of an upgrade I have ever read.

At first I was excited but the more I look at this, I'm becoming less enamored. I would really like to see a Roush stage 1 compared to the FPP performance pack dyno. Peak numbers are almost dead even but I'm wondering how much each really does. I have heard Ford is conservative with their numbers whereas Roush is … less conservative. If they are really close as it seems, cost doesn't justify it. Added $250 plus labor for the extra part doesn't make sense if you care about the 3/36k warranty.

I was really hoping for a new TB, not something off another car.

While the analytics are sound, in that case compare an e85 tune with device ($579ish) worth at least 40whp that comes out to <$15 / hp. Just food for thought when considering options.

I wonder if it has the no lift shift capability like the power packs for the 15-17 cars ?

Mine was $450 with 3 tunes (including E85). ;).

My break down was conservative admittedly

The value can potentially be even greater as seen here...

Wonder how this will compare to the Steeda and Roush kits. I see this has the TB where as the Steeda one and Roush kits are Intake and tune only.

The odd bit for me in this is that its now official that the 87mm GT350 TB is NOT the 87mm TB on the BULLITT. They are separate Ford Performance parts.

Agreed. Amazing that people cannot sort out a custom tuned car can be put back to stock with a few key cycles. Hard to imagine...

Levitown Ford is looking into possible group buy for better price. If interested, go to:

The Coyote2 (aka GT350) TB circuitry is analog and the one for the Coyote 3 is digital. Or something like that.

Any dealership or ASE certified mechanic can install if that's the route you're going to go.
