- 2015 F150 3.5L ecoboost warm start and revs. Stainless aFe downpipe, resonator delete, stock muffler, 5” tip. First rev 1800rpm, second 2800 rpm, last 4800-5000rpm.
Man, I remember when I first got my truck and I kept watching your video of the catless downpipe. Glad to see you still have the truck. I love mine
The catless dp really gives you a good turbo whir!
I love how it sounds!!!!!
Wow thought only the spd super expensive exhaust could sound good but I love this
Hate to say it but stock muffler is the way to go on these motors. I’ve heard all of them out there and this motor was made to stay quiet.
No codes not having cats? Best sounding 3.5 I’ve heard!!
Sounds just like my 2014 EcoBoost
When you went to the catless downpipes did it throw codes for emissions?
Hey man, this sounds awesome. How did you get by the o2 sensors with this set up?
Sounds great👌🏾😎😍
Any revisions on the tune for the transmission shifts
What size of tires and leveling kit are you running bro??
Where did you get this from?
Nice Truck!
nice looking truck
what did you do to make whistle so loud
Hey just wondering what is your suspension set up is man
where did you get the catless downpipes? Love the way this sounds!!
Sounds good 👍🇺🇸
Can you put a link to this exaust
do u have a link to ur down pipe?
Do you have a link for the downpipe
Is it loud in the cab on the highway? Also did your fuel economy improve or worsen? Thanks you sir
Zero drone in cab. Negligible on fuel economy, the 68# tires cost me 2mpg.
Do you have white lettering decals on the platinum tail gate?
Yes. I want to say it was $10-15 on ebay. Not proud to admit it but took me two tries.
Now this is the best ecoboost exhaust on youtube. I have a 2018 STX 4x4 supercrew with the 2.7L ecoboost.
I can't run a catless downpipe in my state (NC) so a downpipe with highflow cats is what I have to run with. These will feed into a larger y-pipe and I will keep the factory muffler without the resonators. Hopefully Mine will sound as nice as yours.
While I'm here do your tires rub? I intend to run 275/65R20's on the factory wheels when I am done.
Sounds like it will be a great set up for sure. I just haven’t heard an aftermarket muffler out there I like the sound of. I will say if I could do it over I’d definitely go catted dp. The smell is tolerable without cats but the check engine light has bugged me for 2 years now. I’ve tried no less than 6 O2 extensions to trick ecu but no dice. Also power gains from catless dp are extremely small if any.
Tires are nitto ridge grappler 285/65/20 (34.6” x 11.2”) and do not rub whatsoever. I do have Bilstein 5100 (ride height adjustable) shocks as well as a 1” strut spacer which give me about 2.75” of lift up front. Another thing I will be doing over soon.. smaller/lighter tires. These luggers are 64# a piece and cost me 2mpg, 30-40whp and not to mention the rough ride and wear and tear on drivetrain. Many guys don’t care about that stuff though and 4 years ago neither did I lol.
@@AD-dw6cb I never thought about that part of the tire equation. That is something to think about for sure.
@@AD-dw6cb how's drone with your setup?
@@CJKrawler81 zero drone
@@AD-dw6cb if you use a tuner, can't you get the O2 delete?
Did you bypass the secondary o2 sensors with a tuner? I'm wanting to tig a custom exhaust w/o cats and haven't found a tuner that let's the user tune the parameters. Does Livewire TS+ have the option?
did you figure it out?
@@Lorenzo-yg6hn not yet
Hp Tuners
Did you need a retune for the downpipes; and if not did it throw a code?
I’d love a re tune.. can’t find anyone that’ll touch it. Have been living with CEL for 2 years.. Would go catted dp if I could do over.
this sounds pretty good.
Where did you find the Downpipe? I can only find catted from them. Could you link it?
Best thing to do right now is get the catted downpipes then smash out the material inside.
Where did you get the lettering in the tailgate?
It comes on the platinum trim level trucks I’m pretty sure
Sounds good!! Sounds pissed off!!!
nice...
Idk why it sounds this loud in this vid, mine is catless with ams adapters and stock muffler and it’s quiet as hell. Before I went catless I had it dumped off the cat and it was a good exhaust note
I suspect two reasons, first and most important this vid was recorded in my driveway in between my and my neighbor’s house creating somewhat of an echo effect. Second is MPT’s 93 PRX tune which I haven’t been able to afford to run in 2 years. The exhaust notes were a bit more aggressive and throaty on that tune.
What year is your truck ?
Did u find a way to keep the check engine light from coming on?
Going Catless means no 02 censors which means check engine light Unfortunately:(
Just get a set of spacers for the rear o2 sensors.
Reminds me of a grand nash.
Hey man I love them popping sounds when you went high rpm! Is that like a misfire or something that has to do with your type of exhaust and resonator delete?
Thanks! That was the rev limiter kicking in, I have it set to 5,000rpm while in neutral. I believe all the handheld tuners for these trucks allow you to do that.
@@AD-dw6cb oh dope! Which tuner do you have if I may ask?
The tuner is an SCT X4 and bought 3 “custom” tunes from MPT Tuning. If you send them your vin# (and maybe $150 if I remember) they’ll send you 3 tunes. I got an 87 economy, 93 performance/towing and a 93 racing they call “PRX”. The 93 PRX makes the truck feel like an entirely different vehicle. It legitimately shocked me how fast the truck was when I first installed it.
@@AD-dw6cb do you know much the stock motor can handle before stuff starts snapping? I love your truck, mine is just a virgin 2019 headed down the same path. I’m worried about the transmission and stock rear end
@@erikkarlovetz1935 I’m honestly not sure as there are many variables from truck to truck. I do know the connecting rods on the 2011-2016 ecoboosts seem to be a weak link. Personally know 3 people who threw rods clean out the side of the block. 2 were running SSi tunes (whatever their race tune is) and one was running a Preaux tune (local shop in south Louisiana). To my knowledge, MPT hasn’t had any motors detonate on their tunes. I have run their PRX race tune for about 40K miles with no issues.
White size and brand are your tires? Truck looks sick man
Thanks! They are 285/65/20 (34.6” x 11.2”) Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Approaching 35K mi on them and probably still a good 15-20K mi left. Proper inflation, alignment and balance as well as rotate every oil change (5K mi) with all terrain / mud terrain tires. Also have 2” block in rear (stock was 1 1/4” I believe) and Bilstein 5100 shocks (ride height adjustable) set to 2 1/4” up front.
@@AD-dw6cb Thank you man. Gonna get same set up.
That sounds sick!! Can ask what kind of tires are those? Great looking truck also!!
Nitto ridge grappler
@@858415 sweet!!
@@858415 I put some all terrains on my 2011 275/70/18s Im running mpt E30 tune I want downpipes next!! Did run into any fuel issues?
Thanks BC! Matt nailed the make and model tires (good eye!). 285/65/20 is size with just over 40K mi no issues. I also rotate them every oil change. Been a great tire overall.
Beware with oversized aftermarket tires though, they’re heavy and will reduce mpg, power and life of drivetrain parts. Most guys don’t care about that stuff just worth mentioning.
Next tire will be a 305/50/20 which are about 16-18# lighter per tire on avg.
@@AD-dw6cb ah ok thanks good to know bro! I'm on 18s went with fortune tormenta 275/70 all terrain for now. Rides good quiet and beefy looking haha.
do you have a check engine light? and if not how did you get rid of it
Unfortunately Nick, I’ve had a CEL on for the better part of 3yrs now. I’ve tried a number of O2 sensor adapters/extensions such as the 90 degree elbows but to no avail, CEL always returns in time. My advice to everyone running 93-87 octane is to go with a catted downpipe to reduce the risk of this issue as well as intolerable exhaust fumes. Power gains from catless dp are negligible anyway.
If anyone reading knows a solution to clearing CEL from a catless downpipe on the 3.5 ecoboost I’d greatly appreciate any suggestions.
@@AD-dw6cb Thanks man, I’ve already purchased my catless downpipes along with o2 sensor extensions. I’m getting them installed tomorrow. I also got my re-tune for my downpipes. Hopefully I don’t get SEL but we will see.
I have a 16 2.7 should it sound just about identical?
Can’t say for sure but from all the sound clips I’ve seen they seem to be very close. I would recommend keeping catted dp as to not throw CEL.
How did you get 5” tip on stock exhaust?
The tip is 5” but the other end that attaches to stock exhaust pipe is 3”. I got it off ebay for like $30.
What tunes do you have
They’re all from MPT. 87 economy, 93 tow/performance, 93 PRX (race).
Who tuned the truck for catless?
No one that I know of. Ran MPT’s 93 PRX tune for about 50K mi with no performance issues but CEL on. Bummer because you lose remote start feature. Been on SCT’s canned 87 tune for past few months due to fuel prices. Would recommend a catted downpipe for anyone in the market. CEL on is one thing, the smell of unburnt fuel is another..
Is this with stock muffler?
Yes
Leveling kit and tire size?
1.5” spacer up front with Bilstein 5100 adjustable shocks set to +1.5” and 2.5” blocks in rear (stock blocks were 1.75”)
Ridge Grappler 285/65/20 but now on Ridge Grappler 305/50/20. Lost about 1” ride height but saved 14lbs rotating mass.
Does it sound like a ricer in the higher RPMs under a load?
Cold start is a bit obnoxious but barely detectable at low rpm + under load. At high rpm + under load it sounds completely stock to me. Zero drone in cab at any rpm/load.
I’m going to run this on my truck then, thank you!! You should do a drive by video with the skinny pedal to the floor for the people like me interested in the catless down pipes👍🏻🍻
@@AD-dw6cb what was the exact set up? I hit the link but there’s a few options you can choose?
@@nickgaines9933 Just covering everything exhaust wise..
SPD turbo adapters, AFE catless stainless dp, resonator delete, stock tailpipe trimmed back 4-6”, 5” tip.
IMO trimming the tailpipe back a few inches then adding the 5” tip gives a ever so slight megaphone effect. Could be all in my head though as it’s negligible.
Turbos sound good but the rest not so much. I have an '13 but won't touch the exhaust for this very reason. Truck looks great!
I totally understand. I kept the stock muffler which really does keep exhaust notes down and there’s zero drone in cab but I agree these motors were built to remain quiet.
I love the sound of a loud V-8. I've owned several mustangs in the past. I gotta tell you though I really enjoy the quietness of the ecoboost.
Sucks cant get the whistle from the 18😢
I’ll trade you turbo noise for the 10sd 😆
What is the benefit in such a large tip?
I think stock is 3” and mine is 5”. No performance gains/losses but it does create a subtle megaphone effect along with cutting back the stock tailpipe 6” or so.
I was just desperate to make the 3.5L eco exhaust note sound good but this motor was made to be quiet.
@@AD-dw6cb I actually have created my own custom exhaust.
@@AD-dw6cb I just uploaded with it.
Does exhaust smell bad?
Cooler weather or a little breeze, not terrible. Idle in warmer weather with no breeze, horrible lol.
Stock muffler?
Yes
@@AD-dw6cb so, resonator delete and aFe downpipe? Sounds perfect.
psssh what turbos :D
Not catless just resonator and muffler delete
Took a break from truck mods for a bit but if I could go back I would go catted dp. Power loss is negligible but smell is tolerable lol.
