Hey Franklin, that's awesome to hear! Reach out to us via sales@ffperformance.co so we can get you a carbon plate.

Do you daily your car?

what else do you need for it? built block?

1 year later, this warms my heart to read this

@@giovannipesina2186I daily mine, I get 30mpg pretty easily, running 93

Thank you, glad we could inspire.

Great to hear and thank you!

Thank you!

Us first pls.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance Do you guys do anything with the Raptor Ecoboost?

I'll give you one, just give me one also

You're welcome!

Wow that DA is super high and trap speed is impressive. I'm sure with just a little meth that car will dip into the 12's with ease! Thanks for the detailed review and you're very welcome for the video.

How’d it do

Hi John, did you use cobb state 2 or did you use any modified map?

So In order to get full potential you need to spend another 3-4K in additional modifications?

@@robertomontanez3085 I had mine pro tuned by PDTuning, you do not want to run any out of the box tunes with the turbo kit you’ll blow it up more than likely.

You’re very welcome

Haha don’t we all. Pretty spendy build!

@@SICMADE7 did you get it?

@@dnalor8753 After further review of the play, considering that I'll only use 91 octane premium gas, plus the cost of *all* the upgrades, for a grand total of 350 HP on my Ecoboost? Although I'll miss the blow off valve and turbo hissing sounds, I'm gonna end up trading mine out for a '24 5.0 that comes w/ 480 HP stock.

@@SICMADE7 lol same I owned new my 22 ecoboost for only 4 months and just sold it for over what I paid for for a new 22 GT 6MT, plus 0% apr for 5 yrs, loving this beast

@@dnalor8753 Congrats man!! Sounds hawt af, and manual too! For me tho, I'm too distracted of a driver and have to focus hard on traffic here because of bad drivers everywhere, and so for that reason is why I'll go w/ the 10 speed auto but it has to be premium cuz I'm spoiled w/ heated/cooler leather seats haha

Feel free to contact us sales@ffperformance 480 576 8606

Not going to happen for a hot minute sadly.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance why would that be? Between Ranger and Bronco seems it's be a good market to tap into.

@@etmccaus R&D is extremely expensive for those types of ventures. We can’t even supply the NX2 fast enough at its current sales volume. The world is still in COVID supply chain issues.

Sorry to hear; we've been working on that, as it's been a struggle with a small staff. I'm glad to hear the GT guys show respect!

Nice, i got mine and I'm getting ready to install soon. Does your car run healthy?

Gonna be a long time out

Wheel horse power, Meth will unlock a ton of power with 91.

Yes, here is the entire kit ffperformance.co/product/function-factory-performance-2015-2021-ford-mustang-ecoboost-nx2-turbo-upgrade-kit/ You’ll still need Meth on 91 or 93 if you want anything over 400 WHP

Catch can is a must regardless. Even on stock tune with minimal boost there’s plenty of blow by getting into the valves.

Always intercooler first! Give us a call at 480 576 8606 and ask for Randy or Chase

Yep, the street is plenty.

We have not done any testing on the 5858 so it's very hard to advise on that.

Unless you are willing to sign a contract, we do not recommend going this high on the stock block with this turbo. We recommend our Full-Race turbo kit with a larger turbo to ease cylinder pressure to achieve a higher horsepower on the stock block. To make this power safely on an NX2, you'll need a built EMS block with proper fueling or meth.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance ok.. I'm listening... full race turbo kit and a bigger turbo, which turbo would hi recommend?

@@beastmodeloading2138 all depends on your goal. If you’re willing to go that’s route, I’d say a minimum of a 8474

Thank you! We just shipped your Cobb btw.

Same here, their videos get me motivated to work on my ecoboost more this year.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance I have cp-e hot/side piping. A k&n open intake will these still work? And cp-e catless downpipe. Only thing I'm missing is better turbo. Ty if u respond

@@ROSAS_PRIDE yes, a k&n filer will work on this turbo or stock turbo. This turbo does include adaptors for intakes

yes will work with stock, ets, or mountune intake.

You will need a wastegate which is a separate part number.

You will need a tune the second you start your car. I highly recommend a catted downpipe if paired with an Atak.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance thank you! I'll definitely try to get all the pieces together before getting the turbo and lastly tune

Pls read the nx2 page

We recommend full bolt ons to achieve that power. Please contact our expert team here ffperformance.co/factory-service/contact/

He said a stock block.

We recommend an intercooler IMMDIATELY!

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance really? What would it change by using that? I just got a 2017 eco boost and I see a lot of people talking about the mods but it really seem like you guys know what you guys are talking about

@@ChristianGC7 an intercooler is gonna help with charge temps which are a huge factor in power production with boosted vehicles. i can feel a difference in the power my car makes when it’s 70° vs 40° outside

350 HP would be achieved with the NX2, intercooler, and tune. We highly recommend a downpipe as the stock DP is very restrictive.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance Thanks! I plan to get NX2, Intercooler, Cobb Tuber (recommended?) and a downpipe. Probably Spark plugs as well. I already have an aftermarket intake (JLT) At that point I will be running with 93 octane. Safe to say I will achieve that 370?

about 12 to 14 hours.

No updates on the new NX2 unfortunately.

I recommend wrapping your catch can lines with gold wrap

With the cylinder pressure that this turbo would make, THAT'S A BIG MAYBE. 460 is more a realistic number, that is to the wheels.

Bolt-ons can also be fun for low cost

It can be found here ffperformance.co/product/function-factory-performance-2015-2021-ford-mustang-ecoboost-nx2-turbo-upgrade-kit/ Install is about 12 hours

We recommend the dirty side when pushing 400+ Clean is the last one I would install. That is wrong, upgrading the turbo is beneficial on all fuel types, the car is not even the same.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance A little confused, you talking about servicing it every oil change/3 weeks...how often are you changing your oil?

@@ironreed2654 We track the car A LOT, so we change the oil at least every 3 track days or every month

Please contact us 480 576 8606 or use this link ffperformance.co/factory-service/contact/

Hey Daniel, The Roush uses a (1) Silicone Coupler CAT to Turbo 3” to 2.25”, you will need to purchase a 3" to 3.5" coupler to adapt the intake to the NX2

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance perfect thanks 👌do you guys sell it? Or where would you recommend to purchase one from?

@@danielaguirre1320 ffperformance.co/product/precision-turbo-2015-2022-ford-mustang-ecoboost-nx2-upgraded-turbocharger/

Comp twin disc you can use the OEM in tank with the HPFP we do not recommend port I doubt the lines will fit the RS. There is not a smaller bolt-on solution.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance awesome response, thank you. I'm in Australia and we don't have a lot of support for the 2.3 in either the mk3 rs, 'stand or the new mk4 ST

@@pheonixfps9248 talk with chase@ffperformance.co if you need anything

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance thanks mate.

Glad we made an impact.

I made 450 WHP on stock block for years.

DO NOT RUN THAT TUNE WITH THIS TURBO!!!

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance to late.. Drove with it for around 100 miles no problem luckily.. Seemed to run fine with the cobbs 91 octane tune. Funny thing is I bought it from a Ford dealership with that tune loaded on it. Mustang has Ford extended warranty on it too with all the add ons. I was shocked! 2018 ecoboost.

Yep!

Around how much horsepower, would just these things bring ?

You can now.

This turbo is designed primarily for the stock block. We’ve already seen over 540 WHP on built blocks with this same turbo.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance yea but for stock blocks the safe zone is under 450whp you cant see full potential of this turbo unless u get a built block 🤦‍♂️ with Other turbos u get Built block but u know u can push it over 600+

@@racingvibes2927 yup lol

@@racingvibes2927 it’s all about how much you’re willing to spend at that point

Absolutely yes.

No, you will need a custom tune. If you try this, you will put a hole in your block the size of the moon.

Yes sir, please give us a call at 480 576 8606

Hi John, pls reach out to Randy@ffperformance.co

Intercooler! Give us a shout at sales@ffperformance.co

You need it no matter what, the stock gate will not give you full performance even on pump.

Wheel.

Pls reach out to our sales team sales@ffperformance.co

Huh? Max for stock turbo on 91 is 310 and that’s pushing it.

Graat. Bought an nx2!

Our NX2 turbo kit and meth.

I'm all about that meth to go turbo haha.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance do you have the direct link for the turbo kit

ffperformance.co/product/precision-turbo-2015-2022-ford-mustang-ecoboost-nx2-upgraded-turbocharger/@@lokiicordinn

You need an intercooler at minimum as we will not tune cars without one. I highly recommend a exhaust and spark plugs to go along with that.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance alright sweet. I already got an exhaust on it and catch can. So the turbo, plus the intercooler and spark plugs should have me at the 380whp+ and reliable right ? My pops has a 17gt and I think with this I’ll be able to keep up with him and even beat him.

If you're on 93, maybe @@Jcslim138

This turbo is only for the EcoBoost Mustang

You will need this ffperformance.co/product/cobb-tuning-2015-2022-ford-mustang-ecoboost-accessport-v3/

I do not believe so. Downpipe, charge pipes, intake, oil lines, water lines, will not match up

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance soon to come i hope, i offer my rig as sacrifice ;)

Give chase@ffperformance.co an email for an answer

We've got about 30ish in stock!

Creative comment.

Immediately, Ryan pulled over 400 WHP on the stock turbo; the unit will not last long.

What RPM level does it start making boost?@@FunctionFactoryPerformance

@@dennisrobinson8008 3000 RPM, we only start dyno pulls at 3000, street driving it can be lower

Yes, unless you have a aftermarket policy

*Do I absolutely*

You do not, we have run this car with the stock downpipe. There is still power to be made.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance thanks for the fast reply one more question if you don't mind will it be a big hp drop if I stick with the stock downpipe or will I still see big numbers?

@@michaelbritt6719 91 FBO is usually 350 WHP, so you might lose 15 to 10 WHP

Any tuning device will work. Just make sure you're working with someone you trust.

They’re not even comparable. The NX2 is 2x bigger than the stock unit and even the HPP turbo. HPP is only 1 to 2 mm larger than the stock turbo. They could have literally achieved the same results with just timing and boost but decided to use a larger turbo which makes no sense to us.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance I'm no expert on turbos, I'm just trying to make an informed decision, according to the specs I just read on the 2020 HPP it says the raised it to a 63mm turbo compressor, but doesn't give specs for the turbine, so it's hard to make a decision without all the info. I don't have a problem with spending to get more performance overall, and look forward to starting the performance upgrades. I've been following your content and you're giving me lots of good ideas, I appreciate the response.

@@ST_DCT to put it in simple terms The HPP turbo air’d out to the max could make around 410 wheel horse power where as the NX2 air’d out can make around 530 wheel horsepower

Yes, absolutely.

Short answer: if you want it to be reliable, yes.

Hi Jack! Unfortunately we’ll be holding off on giveaways for a decent amount of time.

We had 90K miles before I miss shifted. When we tore down the engine, the bearings were decently beat. I'd say 100k is the MOST you're gonna get out of it at that power level.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance from there what would have to be rebuilt?

@@TheJMan1K The bearings go out, but if you're building it you might as well "build it" with forged parts.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance Hi. How much whp and wtp did you have when the engine bearings broke? I’m considering that Turbo for being around 400 whp / 450 wtq, but I don’t know how long a stock engine will last by staying on the limit side of whp. Thanks

@@Obmarmm 450

No, you just need to maintain it such as oil changes and making sure you’re tuned by us!

Yes, if you beat on it, the bearings will go out at about 80k miles.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance guess if you wish to do that get a performance rebuilt engine, get oem one fogged for storage and be prepared for 2nd swap

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance rebuilding with new bearings at 80k instead of 160k adds 2.5 cents per mile. The v8 inefficiency with heavy foot costs 20-25 cents per mile

520, the Focus version is larger and you’re still at about 570 air completely out.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance so if I get this for my mk3 rs I can make up to 570 with the extra mods??

@@RSTouch The block won't be happy about it.

That’s not possible, post your dyno sheet and mods.

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance it won’t let me post a picture here. Do you have an email or somewhere I can send it?

This turbo is designed for the stock engine

@@FunctionFactoryPerformance thanks !!

Shipping department is working on it.

No, 320 at most I 380 is e30+ turned way up

So with a tune downpipe exhaust and blow off valve you only gain 10 horsepower more than stock?

i guess its worth noting the stock hp have changed a bit over the years the 21 models with the performance pack comes from the factory at 330

@@noskoolskate the standard ecoboost is 310 crank horse power on 93 octane and 350 crank torque. With FBO's and tune on 91 320 wheel horse power can be achieved so depending on what the car puts down in stock form you will see anywhere from 40-70 hp gain. The 2020+ HPP cars come 330 crank horse power with the bigger ford performance turbo.

Same

We can do cartilage upgrades, shoot us an email at sales@ffperformance.co

This will only fit Mustang EcoBoost

Let's get her done!

Yep! Here is our address Function Factory Performance 16443 N 91st St C107 Scottsdale, AZ 85260

On my Focus RS, I’ve got prices from $700-1000. Mustang might be less.

The entire kit can be found here: ffperformance.co/product/ff-performance-2015-2019-ford-mustang-ecoboost-bolt-on-turbo-kit/

Very, I just started filming videos again. I was focused on our GT500 program.

How is it a 45 hp increase? Baseline HP can be around 240 to 250 WHP. With minor bolt on-s and NX2, you're looking at nearly 360 to 380 on 91. That's a huge delta.

There is a difference between whp and crank horsepower 😂

We never disagree with this statement, its the price difference between the EcoBoost and GT that is the issue.

Uh... that's not how cars work Jeep Wrangler Lover. ANY UPGRADED TURBOCHARGER will require more fuel, a bigger intercooler and a tune at minimum. Try again.

Yes Chuck, the package comes with 3 catch cans that all have a functioning job. Let us know when your ready to built a 500+ WHP eco!

I have an HPP the FP Turbo is 5% larger than the standard turbo but has a larger compressor than the NX2, but the turbine housing on the NX2 in addition to its efficiency makes a night and day difference. If you're contemplating between the two NX2 all the way. I got my HPP thinking the turbo would give me a small advantage and while its stock tune is 40% wider on a torque curve, it's simply not worth it. They are coming out with a 2024 next gen NX2 this year capable of 600+whpm I would honestly wait for that to come out and old prices will go down and then you can choose whichever one you want. The NX2 by itself won't do much. First mods should be catch can, intercooler (I went CVF Race, CVF TiAl CP's TS Raceport BOV) and then you definitely want a DP. I went CVF 3' Catted ($399). If you buy the NX2 install the TS 19psi WG before you bolt it on because your CP's and other connections will be in the way. My car comes with a quad exhaust and resonator delete and from what I know upgrading to catback/turboback exhaust doesn't gain you much power or many advantages and still sounds like shit. The tomei is a viable option only because you're reducing exhaust weight by over 100lbs. I would get a radium PCV baffle at that point and focus on reducing crankcase pressure. UPR also sells a crankcase breather that goes on your oil cap for $79.99. If you do the UPR DVCC by itself its $289 but with billlet check valves, magnetic drain plugs, clean side catcher, fully optioned out it's about $800. EMS is also selling Brisk plugs pre-gapped because the NGK ruthenium's are very firm and were a pain to get exact but they come at .30 so if you're gapping them there isn't too much to do.

Almost 2x bigger. The HPP turbo is barely bigger than stock, and Ford wasted so much money retooling. Of course, without knowing the actual motive of what they switched, upgrading to the NX2 or BNR is the only choice.
