Elevating the Ford Ranger Raptor’s Performance

Herrod Performance has unveiled its highly anticipated engine upgrade for Australia’s fercest mid-size pickup truck.

This performance enhancement package is designed for the already formidable Ford Ranger Raptor, boosting its power output by a staggering 27 percent.

Herrod Performance, based in Melbourne, has managed to unleash an additional 60kW of power and 200Nm of torque at the wheels. This impressive feat is achieved through the installation of a larger PWR intercooler and a meticulously developed direct-fash engine and transmission calibration, which adds extra pounds of boost. To ensure longlasting performance, a larger transmission cooler is also integrated.

Rob Herrod, taking to social media to announce the release of this package, revealed that he and his team had been working on it even before the secondgeneration Ford Ranger Raptor hit the market in August last year. This version of the Raptor is equipped with a 292kW/583Nm 3.0-liter turbo-petrol V6, setting a new standard in the class.

“We had access to the Raptor long before it was offcially released, thanks to the engineers at Ford,” Herrod said. “This allowed us to develop the perfect direct-fash engine and transmission calibration, along with a larger intercooler and transmission coolers that we’ve had manufactured expected to drop from around six seconds to the low fves, a change that is sure to delight Raptor enthusiasts, especially the Raptor’s fve-year/ unlimited-kilometer factory warranty, thanks to the close collaboration between Ford and Herrod Performance. This partnership has not only resulted in this year’s Finke Desert Race-winning Ranger Raptor racer but also the 500kW Ford Mustang R-Spec released in 2020. by our valued partners at PWR Advanced Cooling Technology.”

Although offcial performance fgures for the enhanced Raptor have not been disclosed, customers can undoubtedly expect a noticeable improvement in acceleration. The 0-100km/h time is those who were envious of the more powerful American version.

Chris Herrod reported that the team has been inundated with inquiries and installation bookings, resulting in a waiting list that stretches into September. Importantly, the power pack does not void

“We have worked directly with Ford, who will be informed when the Herrod power pack is installed on your vehicle, giving you peace of mind regarding the new car warranty,” Rob Herrod explained. “If there is ever a warranty issue, your dealer will collaborate with Herrod Performance to resolve it. If the issue is determined to be caused by the Herrod Performance power pack, Herrod will directly cover the warranty with Ford.”

The Herrod Performance power pack is exclusively available at their Melbourne workshop and comes with a ftted cost of $5950.
