Raptor Killer F-250 Upgrades: Derringer Tuner & Ram-Air

00:01 you guys have seen the ram TRX the Ford Raptor and other off-road super trucks but these pale in comparison to the mega Rex this Ford F250 based 67 Power Stroke is a behemoth and there just happens to be one sitting right outside hey Rob nice to meet you so you got a monster here this is a 2018 okay

00:29 who built these this is a a company called Mega Rex builds them and they call the truck a mega Raptor got so this this particular one was well it is a mega Raptor yes so there’s only about a hundred of them now and this one’s like I said is 2018 they started in 2017 so

00:45 this is truck number three as you just told me before we got on camera here those things are 48 in tall they’re 46 46 yeah so so CL you overdid me just by my God you’re you’re letting me down I want I was going for well maybe 46 in I’m almost ready for new on so maybe I could go to 48 next

01:06 time as if eight log isn’t serious enough for you they adapt from 8 to 10 yeah what’s the steering effort look you’re not making any tight u-turns I’ll tell you that much yeah that I get the turning radius has Chang it’s a lot of golf cart Austin Powers turns and you

01:21 better plan accordingly ahead when you’re going through a drive so when he talks about Austin Powers he’s in the little hallway it’s one of the funniest things ever seen it takes him 60 Maneuvers or something you got to see Austin po I haven’t towed with the yet

01:35 but The Season’s coming up for a desert season so hope I I know this thing is going to tow 1,000% better than that what are you towing um a motorcycle trailer with it it’s going to tow it if you get a glimpse of the uh the exhaust it’s one of the things that needs a

01:50 little work it’s a little embarrassing for this truck he needs a diff cover he needs a Banks diff cover I’m just looking just looking y you’re right you’re right so in this one it’s a it’s a latch under here and this is going to tilt forward and there it is it’s a little bit of

02:10 tough tougher access see this yes one thing with these engines they made the engine Bas 6 or 8 in wider than previous trucks oh okay to fit that diesel in there the charge air cooler which is right next to the battery there at least part of it and it has its own water

02:29 system it’s it’s liquid cooled charge air cooling which is pretty cool I love that the guys made quick work of Rob’s Mega Rex we installed the bank’s Ram a intake system which outperforms all our competitors by inhaling the coolest air possible without relocating the battery like the other

02:53 guys in that Arizona heat he’s going to need all the cool air he can get plus our big ass filter has so much more dust capacity than stock under the hood we added a daringer tuner which had 60 horsepower and over 100 lb feet of torque which he really needs to turn those 46 in tires which oh

03:16 by the way are designed for an M wrap out back we added our banks Ram a diff cover the ring and pinion interface is going to get really hot spinning those 400 lb Wheel and Tire assemblies so we want to keep the amoil gear lube as cool as possible and don’t even get me

03:35 started on that flatback diff covery came in with that thing is good for one thing turning oil into foam check out our diff cover videos to see what I’m talking about while we’re down there we installed a 5-in monster exhaust with our patented sidekick tip dramatically

03:53 reduces back pressure which liberates horsepower by reducing the amount of energy used by the crankshaft during the exhaust exhaust stroke and it fits the look of the truck inside the truck we added a pedal monster throttle controller and dual ID Dash data Monsters the pedal monster will really

04:13 liven up the response but the crown jewel is the ID Dash the ID Dash is all the gauges you’ve ever owned and some you haven’t all wrapped up in this compact 52mm package it displays all the parameters you’d expect has customizable alerts and delivers day logging on a par with a device five times the

04:38 price that’s ridiculous it’s the ultimate powertrain evaluation tool I’m sure Rob will end up upgrading the engine components and when he does the ID Dash will tell him if the part added or subtracted horsepower it’s like having a portable Dyno in his truck you ready ready to give the sing a whirl

05:01 let’s I can’t wait all right so we have the banks ramir intake we have the pedal monster daringer and a dual ID Dash data monster set up right over here all right hit the up button a couple of times go up into level six on darer yep all right and then let’s give that a whirl down the

05:19 street ready you ready Jack let’s go all right that’s ridiculous on the left- hand gauge you’ve got uh stock you’re in stock mode on the pedal monster and what I want you to do is hit the up Arrow all right and now you’re in City let’s go to about the top of City keep clicking click click

05:44 click see how the bars are growing right there tell me what you think of uh daringer level six and Sport 8 my gosh that’s Can You Feel the difference back there it’s pushing my head to the back of the seat like his Cadillac go ahead and put it in reverse and tell me what

06:05 happens what does that say my eyes are terrible reverse mode reverse mode now back up stock pedal in Reverse aha y the only one on the market that returns you to stock in Reverse slick I like that so you don’t jack knife your motorcycle trailer immediately one ofly end up on

06:25 qualified Captain with the boat and the truck in the water right right then you put it back in Drive yes sir and you’ll see that that goes back to uh normal mode so now you’re back to sport 8 let’s go to track Pump It Up there’s another one oh my God keep going there it is oh jeez it’s

06:44 all safe right it’s all safe okay here we go it’s all safe are you ready it was spinning again holy smokes it just feels like like I added two 200 footb of torque wow it’s smooth it’s a huge Improvement huge difference more more than just noticeable it’s like if there if people

07:18 say it’s noticeable this is obvious this difference that that feels so good a 10,000 plus PB truck shouldn’t be moving like this that’s that’s the put yes 10,000 lb on 46 you shouldn’t be able to light up the tires like that right it’s worth every scent cuz this is

07:38 an amazing difference in the truck it’s making the truck that much more drivable and and easier to drive all right so Rob to put a button on this you’ve got dual ey dashes over here okay not only will they data log everything that you can see on the screen but they will data log

07:53 that will record up to 100 parameters on the micro SD card that slides in right under that Banks logo see that little slot you put a Micro SD card in there and you can record data in real time you can review it on the gauge itself or you can put it in a uh in a laptop and look

08:09 at it later I love it do me a favor and hold down the back button which is the bottom right hand corner yep yep hold it down yep all right you’re on page two do it again page three keep going page four holy smoke we how many are there five pages up to eight parameters one more and it’ll take you

08:34 back to where you were there you go so you have five pages on each of those gauges that’s amazing you can program all your temps your pressures air density uh boost air density ambient air density manifold air density uh your transmission slip your exhaust gas temperature engine oil

08:56 temperature engine cooling all the temps and pressures that every other gauge would have plus an entire Suite of of uh engine evaluation parameters that are exclusive to Banks wow so if you change the turbo in this truck you change up pipes down pipes any of that stuff this

09:12 gauge will tell you if that was money well spent or if you just tossed money in the trash all right I got homework to do then yes you do well what did you think holy sh
