How does an 80 hp increase with no change in drivability sound? Higher Octane = More Power Aftermarket ECU calibrations allow for increased boost levels and managed spark timing for safe power gains and factory-like driving characteristics. This means you don’t have to invest extra money on these parts - and that all the right ingredients are already in place if you want to build on the potent package offered from the factory. Bolting on either method of forced induction can cost several thousand dollars.įortunately for the consumer, 2.7L and 3.5L EcoBoost engines come standard with twin-turbos. The problem with engines that leave the factory naturally aspirated is that adding boost requires an external air compressor such as a supercharger or turbocharger. Nitrous is great for short durations and comes with relatively low setup and operating costs, but having to refill a bottle on a regular basis is a major drawback (and the cost associated with refills adds up over time), not to mention its legality (or lack thereof) on the street in some parts of the U.S. This leaves the practice of pressurizing the intake charge via a means of boost as a much more permanent solution. However, big horsepower gains come from adding extra oxygen, pumped into the engine via artificial atmosphere such as nitrous oxide or boost. On naturally aspirated engines, programming normally nets a small power gain relative to engine size. We’re teaming up with Gearhead Automotive Performance to illustrate how well the 2.7L EcoBoost found in the F-150 responds to custom tuning calibrations. Now, it’s time to take advantage of this technology and electronically unlock this platform’s true potential. In the first installment of our EcoBoosted series, we highlighted the technology that makes these boosted V6 mills perform like V8s. In the eyes of the aftermarket, what Ford really did with the EcoBoost was open the door for big power gains to be had through the use of simple, inexpensive ECU tweaks (i.e., programmers). By utilizing technology such as direct injection, precise electronic control via computer and forced induction to achieve great volumetric efficiency, Ford reached its goal. When Ford Motor Company launched its EcoBoost program, it had two key outcomes in mind: 1) design a smaller, more efficient engine to replace larger, less efficient power plants yet produce the same (if not more) power, and 2) achieve superior fuel economy over the outgoing engines (especially when not under heavy loads). We are so confident we offer an unconditional warranty on our products to let you know you can always count on UPRproducts.EcoBoosted: Finding Another 80 HP in Ford’s Twin-Turbo’d 2.7L V6 Continually improving our designs to stay ahead of the competition and give you the cutting edge technology of tomorrow today. UPR is the largest aftermarket catch can manufacturer in the country. Every UPR Catch Can is designed tested and manufactured in the USA. Manufactured from Domestic T-6 6061 Aluminum bar stock and finished off using only the best Diamond cutters to exceed your expectations of what a superior product should fit and look like. This is the most important reason for a catch can. The Multi-chamber technology in every UPR catch can will capture and filter all the oil vapor and trash from getting into your air intake tract.
It cannot be compared or confused with units that have side by inlets and outlets with screen rolled up and shoved in them. This new patented design is the most advanced Internal function from coalescing to condensing every aspect was engineered properly. We even double the size of the oil containment chamber. We have hundreds of hours testing our new Multi-Stage Oil Separator to ensure proven results will exceed your expectations.
It utilizes UPR Braided Hose and Billet Hose Ends to give you the Strongest and Best Performing Setup Possible- No cheap stock lines here that have been cut and spliced on! Featuring the New UPR Plug N Play ™ Catch Can Fittings, you can empty the can without removing the intake cover or catch can lines from your engine. This kit is 100% Modular and can be fully disassembled or emptied and cleaned in seconds. We went the extra mile to ensure you get the best quality components.
