Ecoboost sound

I think the intake kit would help in the sound department-

I’ve walked by a bronco sport and heard the ticking. It didn’t sound good at all and it was just sitting there running (cue the direct injection fanboys). I am happy to hear the groan of a hybrid over the chatter of a direct injection turbo.

I would install a boat load of soundproofing. Under the hood, firewall, doors, floor, maybe the roof, everywhere.

What Rob said. Spend the money and time to install sound deadening material around the engine compartment and passenger cabin. Turn radio up or make “vroom vroom” sounds as you drive. Problem solved.

We dealing with injector tick for a long time in the BMW word.. The engine cover is going to best bet here. The BMW have some foam lined to the inside of the cover. Its effective.

Changing to our 3" intake is an incredible difference in sound, even better than the exhaust. The intake opens up all the turbo/BOV noise, even more so than on my 3.5 F150.

BOV noise?
Whats that?

If this is serious? BOV blow off valve, turbo releasing air/pressure when you let off the gas, or when the truck shifts or whatever.

Lots of cool induction noises on a turbo vehicle, especially with metal piping.

Great idea. The hood and floors alone should make a huge difference.

Yes, serious and thanks for the explanation.
I haven’t owned a turbo, let alone been involved with the newer street scene, if that’s what it’s even called…I’m old, deal with it, lol.

lol, no hate I just always seem to fall for internet trolls so I had to ask. If you are new to turbos, you might find it fun to mess with down the road.

No worries, I’m not a troll though the wife might argue that at times.
I‘m a dormant gearhead (for a long time) that has successfully buried those desires but this truck has me planning and thinking.
Extended warranty, or screw it and have at it…
That is the question.
I said I’d never build a car again, good thing it’s a truck.

Now back to topic, yes fix the sound as I’ve had vacuum cleaners that sounded better than this factory system.

Kinda like this

My opinion, and probably unpopular, but ALL the Ford EB's exhaust should be kept as quiet as possible......they ALL sound really bad.

Let the turbo(s) do the talking.

This has been my experience too. I need all the flow and minimal back pressure, with minimum additional noise.

Well, first I need my truck to actually get delivered.

I’m thinking of adding some soundproofing to the hood because, yeah, not an impressive sounding engine for sure.

Any recommendations on sound-proofing material for the engine compartment? Looking for suggestions. Thanks!
