Before you Buy: 2019-2020 Ford Ranger Bolt-On Engine Upgrades!
Posted by Stephen Sandefur on 7/23/2020 to
Before you Buy
The 2019-2020 Ford Ranger performs okay on off-road paths, but when the truck is left at stock, you're opening up your 2.3L EcoBoost engine to degradation over time. For especially treacherous trails, the stock EcoBoost power and torque also may not be able to give you the punch you need to pass through safely. When you add some of our
2019-2020 Ford Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost Engine Parts & Upgrades
, your truck will run more efficiently and cleanly with impressive performance boosts. The addition of
2019-2020 Ford Ranger cold air intakes, intake scoops, or an air filter
will help prevent contaminants from getting into your engine and intake. Adding a
2019-2020 Ford Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost Oil Catch Can
or
2019-2020 Ford Ranger Snorkel
also helps keep your important intake and engine cleaner. For those performance gains you crave and for the ability to read accurate readings,
2019-2020 Ford Ranger Custom Tuning
is essential. You'll find no shortage of bolt-on engine upgrades at Stage 3 Motorsports!
2019-2020 Ford Ranger Cold Air Intakes & Accessories
Aftermarket
2019-2020 Ford Ranger cold air intakes, intake scoops, or an air filter
can improve Ranger airflow and make your driving experience more enjoyable. A new intake makes the Ranger's throttle response better due to less restrictive airflow. The
2019-2020 Ford Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost Roush Cold Air Intake Kit
operates as a much less restrictive component than stock for precision throttle control. Built around an open-air, conical air filter that features a 21% larger surface area than stock, the intake is able to draw in more air than stock. A durable injection-molded air box assembly and a CAD designed lip also completely seals with the hood to help prevent heat soak. We tested it out on our Ranger, and it worked great! Check out the video below. Another alternative would be to add a
2019-2020 Ford Ranger 2.3L Ecoboost aFe Magnum Force Cold Air Intake System Scoop (Black)
. This intake scoop fits onto stock intake systems or aFe's Quantum Intake and provides more airflow to the system. Its unique air scoop system directs cool, outside air from the top front of the grille to your intake. Your intake will not overheat and lose efficiency with the scoop. A tough, impact-resistant LLDPE polymer construction helps the scoop hold up over time. Lastly, an easy way to provide cleaner air would be to drop-in a
2019-2020 Ford Ranger Airaid Drop-in Replacement Air Filter
. This helps clean contaminants out of the air better than your stock air filter ever could. The Airaid Drop-in Replacement Air Filter works so well because of its multiple layered, cotton gauze, non-woven synthetic, and red oiled filter media. With a great filtration system and low restriction, the filter will pull so many contaminants out of the air that normally would reach your intake. Most disposable air filters also need to be regularly replaced once they're dirty, so Airaid's reusable design allows you to wash the filter and save money in the long run.
2019-2020 Ford Ranger Oil Catch Cans
If you're like us, than you probably try to take the Ranger out on off-road trail runs as often as possible, but this can cause oil degradation over time. Your stock catch can will not be able to prevent the unfortunate degradation of your fluid's performance and service life. That's why the addition of a
2019-2020 Ford Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost Oil Catch Can
helps keep the oil in your Ranger in better condition over time. The
2019-2020 Ford Ranger 2.3L Ecoboost JLT Driver's Side 3.0 Oil Separator Kit
is an all-around improvement to JLT's older oil catch can systems with three times the capacity and an improved internal separator design. The kit helps keep engine PCV oil blow-by out of your truck's intake stream to maximize rated fuel octane over a long period of time. Best of all, it comes in a convenient, plug-and-play package by dropping into place of your truck's driver's side PCV line. You could also opt for the
2019-2020 Ford Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost Mishimoto Baffled Oil Catch Can Kit
as another option. The three fl oz capacity Mishimoto Catch Can helps crankcase gasses flow normally and keeps your oil efficient. An internal air diverter additionally increases air turbulence for better oil separation. Custom 2.5mm steel brackets mount the can under the hood without any drilling or cutting. The can is placed in a spot that is isolated from engine vibration which will lengthen the can's lifespan.
2019-2020 Ford Ranger Snorkels
As you know by now, it is crucial to keep the air-intake system and engine clean so everything functions well for as long as possible. Another great option to help maintain your internal components is adding a
2019-2020 Ford Ranger Snorkel
. The snorkel will ensure that contaminants stay out and your intake functions the best it can. A great option would be the
2019-2020 Ford Ranger VSPEC Safari Snorkel System
to seal water, dust and snow out of your intake even in extreme environments. If you traverse deep water, dry dirt roads or intense blizzards, your airbox will not be contaminated. This works by repositioning the air-intake to a higher location, which reduces the amount of contaminants that can pass through to the airbox and filter. Safari's CAD and lab tested Air Ram system helps remove the most water possible from incoming air and then delivers the best airflow to the engine. If you must cross a body of water while off-road, the snorkel will even help keep water out of the engine and reduce the probability of engine damage. The snorkel uses a UV stable polyethylene body to withstand any abuse you might take on rocky trails. High-grade stainless steel and plated hardware provide further durability over time. Safari's connection ducting is also manufactured from EPDM molded rubber to fit perfectly to the Ranger's body and is rated for up to 266°F continual operating temperature. The Safari Snorkel System does requires cutting and trimming of your Ranger's fender and A-Pillar to connect to the factory air box.
2019-2020 Ford Ranger Custom Tuning
The Ranger could use some
2019-2020 Ford Ranger Custom Tuning
to perform better and read accurately when you're tearing up off-road trails. The Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost engine was designed to have decent power and torque. You can upgrade both with a tuning device and custom tunes. Application and octane-based tuning increases boost pressure output of the turbocharger and fine-tunes the engine's fuel curves and ignition timing for all the extra air. The tuning also adjusts the truck's shift points and transmission functions. Low-end torque boosts give the engine a more powerful feel in the low rev ranges. 5-Star reports that with their powerful 93 octane performance tune, the 2.3L EcoBoost truck put down an average of 312 horsepower and 369lb-ft of peak torque for a gain of 56 HP and 88lb-ft of tq over stock at peak increase. The
2019-2020 Ford Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost 5-Star SCT BDX Tuner w/ Custom Tunes
uses a smartphone sized tuning device to fit comfortably in your hand. For a larger sized device, you could also try the
2019-2020 Ford Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost 5-Star nGauge Tuner w/ Custom Tunes
. The tuner uses an E-Motion nGauge device. The round gauge easily hooks right into Ranger's OBD-II port to upload the tunes you desire. Because its always a great idea to add a warranty to truck parts, we offer aftermarket warranties at an additional cost.
2019-2020 Ford Ranger Throttle Modules/Calibration Tools
The Ranger could use some optimization or calibration tools to fine tune your driving and to correctly display information. Factory throttle settings could work better because of how many different types of driving you do with your Ranger. On-the-fly adjustments on the street, track, off-road and while towing can be achieved with Hypertech's Throttle Optimizer! These updates change quickly so your truck can adapt to any driving situation. A turn of the knob changes throttle intensity between five different driving settings depending on what you need. Three safeguard levels are also included in the unlikely event of failure. If a bad signal is detected, then a bypass mode helps return the Ranger to a factory throttle mode from whatever you had it on. The throttle comes in a racing and street package called the
2011-2019 Ford Trucks Hypertech REACT Throttle Optimizer
. This optimizer can change between track, sport, street, economy and stock settings. Two other optimizers are included for towing or off-road use. Hypertech's device can be easily plugged into your accelerator. If your Ranger is rocking bigger aftermarket one for better rock crawling, then you probably noticed your speedometer reads inaccurately. The wrong speed and odometer mileage displayed occurs because of an altered final drive ratio. The
Hypertech Speedometer Calibration Tool
easily fixes this problem from the comfort of your own garage. The Ranger's PCM must be adjusted for the new tire size. The device also corrects part-throttle shifting for better drive-ability. An OBD-II cable and USB cable makes the connections. Updates can be downloaded and more from your home computer. For a more in-depth process of how to install and use this calibrator on your Ranger, you can check out the "How To" video below when we tested it on our truck.
Provides More Efficient, Optimized & Powerful Engine Experience w/ Cleaner Operation!
With
2019-2020 Ford Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost Engine Parts & Upgrades
, you can expect so much more out of your 2.3L EcoBoost engine. Ultimately, these components can make a huge difference when you are trying to be safe but have fun on rocky trails.
