What did you do to your Ranger today?

[Rickfar]

Every extra $100 spent adds about 20HP & 20LB/FT in your head, even if it's wheels/tires ?

The dual-port BOVs do sound great.

This may be a stupid question but I am in the market to replace the BOV on my ranger I am wondering if dual port or the single core is better what are the advantages of the dual port? Is the extra $40 for the do port Worth it?

Here's what I did NOT do to my Ranger today: back it into a guardrail. I was at the dump dropping off stuff today. My tailgate was down so the backup sensor is going crazy because it thinks I'm going to hit the ground. Meanwhile, I'm backing up a little crooked, and I know it, so I'm going REAL slow. I feel something like a tire bumping into something. So I stop and get out. My right taillight is maybe one-half inch from the guardrail next to the container I'm supposed to put my stuff in. Whoah!

Good thing you stopped just in time. IIRC those taillights are like $1,200.00 if you have the BLISS in them.

Is this mounted below the back seat?

This is on the front passenger footwell against the center console. If that makes sense.

I think this is subjective. The dual port won't make your turbo better, but you will hear the WHOOOOSH. If that's what you want and it is worth $40 to you, then do it. Boomba racing makes a cheap vent-to-atmosphere thing that just sits below your OEM BOV, if that is your speed.

I kind of want the tubrosmart dual port, but I'm never going to tune my engine so I'm not even sure I really need an aftermarket BOV.

Finally was able to get a fully working aftermarket radio in. Factory backup camera works fine. I had the 4.3 Inc radio so it is a nice upgrade for me.

What parts did you need for installation? I'm interested in this for my xl

I'm glad I purchased mine lightly used! It has some touched up rock chips all over but nothing glaringly noticeable. I'm extremely OCD about my vehicles and have a garage queen Mustang. Since this has to stay outside (the wife's car gets the other side of the garage) I'm glad I didn't buy it new. Plus I do t mind some light off-roading in it!

I think you had all the right words for, " Can't wait to start the mods, everything I want and nothing I didnt"...lol welcome to the money pit

I feel the same. It was between Blue and Magnetic Gray. The dealer I was working with happened to have both in stock with the FX2 package. Ultimately, I went with the Blue because I felt it popped just a little more and because I felt the gray with the Sport appearance package was a little too monochromatic for my personal taste (still a really nice truck, though).
Anyway, I'm already trying to talk the Mrs. into getting me a tonneau cover for my b-day! ?

That was my first addition also need to protect things in the bed from weather. Shouldn't be too hard a talk. A tune or lift on the other hand. ?
