Huge Custom Turbos for the 2.7 Ecoboost!

[@kenm4678]

Lots of sound change. Good looking turbos!

[@davetheflave2570]

Have you ever hit the paint with a clay bar? I hear that cloth making abrasive sounds when you wipe it as if there is contaminants in the paint. I hit my 2.7 with the clay bar then waxed her and that paint is smooth and contamination free. Well worth the time and effort. Great video and have a great day!

[@blackericdenice]

6:40 The stock waste gates are closed at idle. I know this because I used a vacuum pump to open them and drive my truck without boost. The turbo still come on around 2500 rpm because they are so small.

[@gggaskins8192]

I'm curious to see some data on flow and spool time. Another point to touch on is that with easier flow into the engine and out the exhaust, you get lower cylindwr temps and EGT, which helps with knock resistance. In theory, you should be able to get more aggressive with timing on the new turbo setup.

[@BoostKingMatt]

Well here’s the unofficial data from what I’ve seen so far. Lag is a lot more, but it seems to spool enough air on the low end to still have decent response. However, from a 3rd gear pull starting at about 3000 rpm, it doesn’t fully spool till 4300 rpm. So there is boost building lag from 3000-4300. And the tune has the wastegates shut from the time I go WOT till it starts building Boost. We’ll see how the tuning goes as we continue forward.

[@gggaskins8192]

@@BoostKingMatt oh wow. And based on our conversation on IG the other day, it sounded like you're sitting at a pretty low boost level. It's that still the case here?

[@BoostKingMatt]

@@gggaskins8192 Yes. The 3rd gear pull I made the other day was 17 psi with wastegate at 38% closed, 100% is all the way open on my truck. Stage 4s were doing 22.5 psi with 10% closed. That was pretty much maxed out. Safe to say these turbos have the capability to run more boost than I’d ever run.

[@kriswinger9391]

Definitely alot bigger turbos than the OEM ones! Only thing with turbos "that" much larger than stock is that there would be more noticeable turbo lag. Obviously good tuning will help mitigate some of that, but it will be noticeable. And adding another turbo (like a turbo diesel) isn't an option as these EcoBoost 2.7 + 3.5 liter V6's are already twin turbo engines. A higher stall torque converter on your transmission would also help, especially with launching your truck off the line, but that's obviously quite a bit more cost too. What aftermarket intercooler are you running? That's next on the list for my 2022 Ford F-150 XLT 2.7 EcoBoost 4x4!

[@BoostKingMatt]

Yes you are right. There is a lot more lag than the stock turbos. There’s more lag than the stage 4s even. But we are working on tuning right now still. I have the CVF Titan Intercooler.

[@laneloflin5798]

Sounds great what exhaust do you have

[@BoostKingMatt]

Watch my video on the first ever 2.7 with equal length downpipes. That will show you what exhaust I had on that truck.

[@jd-it4on]

Do u know if the 2.7 r having issues with coolant lines going to the turbos like the 3.5 is having? If so r there updated lines or should I go to after market turbos to have better lines/connection, just in the market for a truck and trying to figure out what engine to get for reliability, I do tow but only 3 thousand pounds so I think each option has plenty of pwr for a work truck and fro. What I see the 2.7 is more reliable and gets better mpgs, what r your thoughts?

[@BoostKingMatt]

@@jd-it4on well I have a 3.5L now. I get about 20mpg on bigger turbos and 91 octane fuel. It is more of a powerhouse than the 2.7 obviously, but the 2.7 is no slouch and can tow very well too. Biggest thing is making sure you change the oil very frequently especially if you’re working the motor hard. The 2.7 does not have the same coolant line connections like the 3.5

[@michaeljacques4059]

Man i need more updates on this

[@BoostKingMatt]

The turbos are doing amazing.

[@thetruejay20]

Did I miss a part? What about fuel upgrades?

[@BoostKingMatt]

Those upgrades are in previous videos

[@Vivianauxito]

Awesome video Matt, Do you have need of LED upgrade? We would like to invite you to do a product review video for our Auto LEDs. Any way to reach out to you?

[@BoostKingMatt]

Hey there, I’m actually running your LEDs right now! However, one side went out a little while ago and I just haven’t had time to buy a new one yet. But yeah I have your low and high beam LEDs and I love them. I have an Instagram. The handle is boostkingmatt you can message me on there!

[@ddos9837]

Cant seem to find them on their website.

[@BoostKingMatt]

They don’t exist. These were CVF downpipes that my buddy 208Concepts customized for me.

[@NITROUSnBIASPLYS]

How's the engine holding together? And what boost and fuel are you running?

[@BoostKingMatt]

It held up for a while and then blew up. was running around 22.5 psi and e50 fuel. Making around 650 hp at the crank

[@jamr0214]

Very nice! But i thought you were gonna take it easy on the truck now since lil's motor blew up.

[@BoostKingMatt]

I am. We aren’t gonna go too wild with it.

[@jamr0214]

@BoostKingMatt Gotcha. "Too wild" I've said that before lol Can't wait to see the difference.

[@BoostKingMatt]

@@jamr0214 Haha, yeah we’ll see!

[@stephenwetzel2907]

​@@BoostKingMatt I think you will be alright. I imagine his was lean due to low fuel delivery with big turbos

[@anthonys7534]

Lils 2.7 blew up? That’s the guy with like 225000 miles on it?

[@shoalmighty334]

You said tune from Torrie, thought you went with Adam at ZFG?

[@BoostKingMatt]

Adam did the race tune but I’ve always used Torrie.

[@juan_f150]

Is there any similar turbos for the 2015 3.5 ecoboost ? , i ordered the garret powermax stage 1 and i dont know if i should had waited

[@BoostKingMatt]

Well, if you want to make 800whp or more I would have gotten the CRP Garrett stage 2 upgrade. CRP took the Garrett Stage 2 turbos and fitted a 52/72mm compressor wheel to them and bored them out larger.

[@seacradev5400]

I wouldn't recommend any but turbobay. They made mine for my SHO, turbobay makes a new turbo. Even a new waste gate. CR just mods the wheels and they do not rebuild the turbo.

A truck should not sound like this. Abomination

[@BoostKingMatt]

No it’s not. That is your own opinion bud

[@StephenM-zd5vw]

The website doesn't show them available anymore...?

[@BoostKingMatt]

Turbobay’s website? I can ask him and see what’s up. Shoot him a message or an email and ask.

[@StephenM-zd5vw]

@@BoostKingMatt i just sent him an email. How did you like these vs the stage 4s? Are they bigger,I noticed you did say they are louder.

[@BoostKingMatt]

@StephenM-zd5vw good. I liked the stage 4s, however the Turbobay turbos were pretty sweet. Yes they are a lot bigger than stage 4s. Stage 4s had a compressor wheel of 43mm/56mm and the Turbobay ones have 50mm/65mm compressor wheels and the turbine was 50mm 10 blade versus stage 4 with 45mm 8 blade.

[@StephenM-zd5vw]

@@BoostKingMatt Cool man thanks for responding. I have a 2019 reg cab 2.7 I am building.

[@jovanialayon5728]

Hey Matt do you have IG ? If so what is it so I can follow I have a 2.7

[@BoostKingMatt]

I don’t have an Instagram anymore. My email is in the channel “about” section if you need to get a hold of me.
