The V8s of Ford flirt with volumetric compressors to outrageously increase their power. We think de facto of the Raptor R or the work done by several preparers like Shelby or Hennessey. This time Volumetric Compression isn’t for a special-edition-only or ultra-limited-release high-performance release, it’s for almost everyone who owns a Ford F-150 new generation launched in 2021.
Ford-Performance launch the whole FP700 which introduces a 3-liter Whipple supercharger and considerably increases the pressure of the supply of the 5-liter Coyote V8 engine. The high output motor goes from 400 horsepower to 700 horsepower. Torque sees an equally impressive increase from 410 to 590 lb-ft. With the FP700 package, the buyer also gets a black grille and side vents, revised rear suspensions and Ford Performance floor mats.
Which versions of the F-150 are compatible with Ford Performance’s FP700 treatment? The automaker claims that 2WD or 4WD XL, XLT, Lariat and Platinum with either of three cabs (Regular, SuperCrew, SuperCrew) and with 5.5 or 6.5 bed feet are eligible. However, you should not have the following options: ProPower OnBoard or the 8-foot box. Very relevant, this equipment installed in a Ford dealership is fully covered by a warranty in addition to that of the vehicle.
In addition to the FP700, buyers picking up a new 2023 F-150 can opt for either of the new Black and Bronze editions. These packages add 22-inch wheels similar to the Sport package. However, they will be painted black or bronze depending on the model. To this I add decorative decals on the side walls and the tailgate.
There are no Canadian prices for the FP700 set or the Black and Bronze Editions. To get your hands on these accessories, you have to go through the United States. The base price in the United States for the Black and Bronze Editions is US$12,350 while the FP700 set alone is worth US$9,500.
