Wait,... I'm having a moment..... Those are some impressive numbers, from a 2.3L.

Will be interesting to see mpg vs 2.7. If at least equal why buy cam phaser problems?

And peak tq is at 2500 rpm. Says tune is for towing so down low tq which is great for daily driving.

Yes. According to the order status, mine has shipped - ordered late yesterday.

I haven’t ordered it personally but I’m guessing that’s just a website error as this is indeed the 24 programmer.

I found this site too for quite a bit cheaper.

2.7 with stock tune still has 10% more torque than the tuned 2.3. The 2.7 has direct and port injection, runs smoother and quieter, and does not require premium fuel. Plus there's the idea that while the cam phaser issue is not non-existent in the 2.7, it is certainly overblown when compared to the 3.5 or 3.0 and also relative to the number of 2.7's in use.

If you use the promo code on Ford's website, it's $660 I think. I used that and some points.

The 2.7 will always make more power. But at a much higher cost. It’s 8k more than a stx 2wd. With your comparison that is using premium fuel as the 2.7 is rated with premium fuel per fords website.

*Horsepower and torque ratings based on premium fuel per SAE J1349® standard. Your results may vary.

IMO a xlt with the 2.7 you are in f150 and lightning territory as far as cost and there’s more value in those trucks.

But they don't fit most garages and are a PITA to navigate in the city.
