2022 Ford Performance Parts Performance Pack

They have always added extra emissions equipment to California models. Go look under the hood at the emissions sticker. It will tell you of it's meets federal standards or California standards. As a retired auto tech I've had to check that sticker many times to get the correct parts. So yes Ford does make 2 versions of the same vehicle.

Not always, there was a time, long ago, that there were no restrictions there. But it became known that cars were contributing to smog and other environmental health hazards they have been at the lead of getting restrictions put in place for cleaner or zero emission cars/trucks.

But in current market I'm not 100% sure that every car has a special CARB model anymore. With 15 states now using CARB emission requirements most new cars/trucks are dual certified for California and Federal emission requirements. I'm not sure to what level those other states have adopted the CARB standard, but since Ford is selling the tune to other states with CARB standards, I'm going to guess that most states don't have the aftermarket restrictions in place that CA does. Perhaps they just use the emissions requirements at initial new sale that CARB requires. a 2020 model year Federal only emission car/truck can't be registered in the 13 states that had adopted CARB by that year.

Also, if a car is only CARB certified, it can't be registered in a state that still requires Federal emission requirements certification.

If this is the case, then why is it 49 state legal not 36 state as your claiming? If 13 other states have California's emissions laws then why is this tune allowed in 13 of the 14 California emissions states? Also since carb certification is tighter on emissions a carb vehicle can be registered anywhere.

If you read what I typed I already stated that perhaps other states only adopted the CARB restrictions for new cars sales but have not adopted the restrictions on aftermarket parts.

No, a CARB only certified car can't not be registered anywhere, only in states that require CARB cars, or in some states neighboring a CARB state as the documentation from Ford reads concerning this topic.

Again, if the car is dual certified it can be registered anywhere in the US. I really think almost all current cars are dual certified, so there is no difference from CA to the rest of the market for any dual certified car.

The 21 Ranger is dual certed, so 0 emission differences in any of the 50 states, they are all the same.
Fed cert: T3B70 LDT3
CARB cert: ULEV70 LDT

I read what you typed, but that did not include the pertinent info that the link you provided did. After reading that I see things have changed over the last few years since I retired and I was not aware of the changes as they don't affect me where I live so, I'll stand corrected on the emissions stickers, however the VIN will still tell you what emissions standards the vehicle adheres too .

It definitely has to do with whether or not the truck was made withCalifornia emissions. I was going to buy a used truck at one time until I open the hood up and it had a California emission sticker on it. No sale.

All 2022 Ford Rangers sold in the US have California emissions and Federal emissions, so it does not matter if it has it or not, otherwise there would be no tune available at all yet for the 2022.

Currently, only CA appears to have the super strict enforcement on aftermarket parts, which the Ford Performance tune is classified as.

All US vehicles include an EVAP system and Exhaust components to meet CARB requirements. I've only seen Motorcycles lately that create CALI specific models with other US models that dont include EVAP cannisters, etc.

That’s how I found Dave when he went missing.

Wonder if they can find Richard?

I've read through many different threads regarding this FPP tune and I still can't really find a solid answer.

Off of the performance website it says it provides an increase of 45hp and 60 ft lbs of torque and their provided graph shows stock tune (87 octane) and the FPP tune (93 octane)

That being said if anyone follows the TFL truck youtube channel... 5 star tuning used a stock ranger filled with 93 octane to get a baseline of what they are working with before creating a tune and the truck was pulling some fairly decent #'s

Keeping in mind this is one dyno run example out of many others people have done as well but on avg after 3 pulls they were achieving an avg of (258 HP @wheels @ 5150rpm) which I believe is about 322hp @crank and about (284 ft lbs torque @wheel @3450rpm) which is equal to roughly 345/350ft lbs @crank.

All of this strictly on stock tune using 93 octane

So what I'm wondering is how much on top of that potentially would this FPP really increase performance....I definitely could see an improvement with transmission shift points but as far as power goes...is it just really minimal over no tune and utilizing 93 octane if you can find/afford it?
