  1. Effect of start/stop on turbo?

    wow thats alot of starts lol
  2. Ranger Turbo Mods

    Ya a bigger inter-cooler would be great the stock one is tiny and there seems to be quite a bit of room for a bigger one. Aluminum charge pipes would be much better than the stock rubber also.
  3. Effect of start/stop on turbo?

    I'm still skeptical seeing a new OEM standard alternator is quite cheap. I would think such a high tech piece of equipment would cost an astronomical amount of money. From what I've heard it uses the starter which has been redesigned a bit to accommodate s/s tech including using a lower gear ratio.
  4. Effect of start/stop on turbo?

    the ranger doesnt use the alternator does it? I know there is STARS which is a reversible alternator that restarts the engine but I didn't think ford was using this technology. I could be wrong. It would be really cool if they were but I'm pretty sure Ford's stop/start still relies on the starter.
  5. Effect of start/stop on turbo?

    On another note I did notice that when I stop in my driveway sometimes it stops and then when I shift into park it starts up again. That is a bit irritating but I guess everything comes with a downfall.
  6. Ranger Turbo Mods

    I apologize ahead of time if there are already questions like this on here but I didn't see any. I'm a powersports mechanic but I have had fairly limited experience with turbos just a few turbo snowmobiles. Is it possible to adjust the waste-gate on the Ranger's turbo to create more boost? Are...
  7. Effect of start/stop on turbo?

    First the turbo is liquid cooled. Second when stop and go driving the turbo doesn't get that hot its more an issue if you were accelerating and driving hard then shut the engine right off. Ford wouldn't have implemented s/s if it was harmful in any way. I'm not Ford certified but I have been a...
  8. HOT PEPPER RED Ranger Club Thread

    i really wanted the paint matching bumpers I think that looks the best. I'm not really a chrome guy but I didnt want to pay to have one special ordered. Or wait! Those rims look awesome too Im not sure why the painted bumpers are the lower package.

  10. J0shM1lls' Ranger Build Thread!

    is that the tricoat white? It is absolutely gorgeous! I got the hot pepper red but I like the white, magnetic, saber, and the blue. One of the hardest choices was the color. The other was forking out close to 50 g's for the fully loaded lariat. Its worth it though I'm in love.
  11. HOT PEPPER RED Ranger Club Thread

    I have chrome sidesteps on it now too and I ordered an aftermarket BOV, intercooler lines, and a hood bug deflector that has built in marker lights. In case anyone is interested in the deflector here is a link...
  12. HOT PEPPER RED Ranger Club Thread

    This is mine. 501a package. I am absolutely in love and if it was legal I would marry her... I've never rode in a smoother driving truck except when you hit multiple bumps sometimes the back bounces around so I wish they upgraded from the leaf spring design. Maybe if there are better shocks...
