Had this come across in one of the Ranger Facebook Groups today.

I can't verify authenticity so a phone call would be necessary, but for anyone with a 2022+ in the PNW that is able to give up their truck for a week and wants a downpipe, y'all would be doing the rest of us a favor.

As tempted as I am, shipping from CO on my end isn't worth it, and I don't think it would be cost effective for SPD to ship my truck in either.

I'm curious to what is different on the 22. Is the turbo mounted different or what is it?

It's my understanding there was a change in the transmission mount for the 10R80 that conflicts with the routing of the downpipe. That said, I can't confirm or deny if that is true case.

Supposedly something also changed with the flange between the turbo and downpipe as well, but without a side by side comparison, I can't confirm or deny that either

Ok. Unfortunately with the release of the bronco, the ranger pretty much got overlooked in the aftermarket realm but keep pushing and someone will jump on it. I love my CVF downpipe maybe hit them up too.

CVF was working on one, but it got put on the backburner. I haven't heard anything on if they need a demo truck or not.

And I agree, we got screwed when the Bronco came back. As happy as I am that its here, especially to give FCA a run for their money on the Wrangler, we got the shaft on parts, and there are some things I would love to see but it may be a bit before we do

I have ordered and received an SPD Down pipe and full 3" stainless exhaust for my '23 Ranger.
Can't find much info on the 22-23 install. Plan on doing a video of the install for the YouTube channel. I'll keep any with interest posted.

  • High flow 400CPSI catalytic converters that do not cause check engine lights
So no one with an SPD has gotten codes with theirs? I wonder why CVF's do, or is this inaccurate?

Let me know how this works out. I might be interested in one for my 23.
Got the SPD down pipe and 3" exhaust on this weekend, Wasn't too bad of a job! Fit great, sounds great, did the break in procedure for the cat and never saw an engine light.

Nice!

I'm not saying you will get one, but I didn't get a CEL until I floored it a few times on the highway. If you do, you can install the spacer to the O2 sensor.

Congrats, man! Do you have a video clip of the sound? What does the butt dyno say? Do we have any data on hp/tq increase?
