Have you had to build your tranny yet? I'm not sure how you haven't limped it yet if you gained even 80 would be tough on it
Not worried about the tranny, the 6r80 is a very stout tranny. There are many many supercharged 5.0 and 6.2 running around with zero issues. Tuning the trans is just as important as tuning the engine, and my tuner has done a great job with both. Like I said many guys with the eco boost are adding full bolt ons with no issues. There is some debate if the 80 stands for 800 ft lbs or nm...either way its plenty as 800 nm equates to 590 ft lb.

If you are looking for a gas truck that tows as close to a diesel as you can get, seriously test drive an eco boost with the max tow package, even if you aren't a Ford guy. I test drove mine 3 days andhooked up to several different trailers. It pulls like a fricken freight train. My truck is rated to tow 11,000+ lbs.It does a really really nice job. I'm not one of those fan boys that say Ford is best no matter what...but how the eco boost tows is truly remarkable
Lol okay, let me know when you limp it
