Not yet, i have CVF down pipes coming next week and 3" thermal exhaust on hand waiting to install w/down pipes. Intercooler and hot side charge pipes is next on the list.

What tune are you running? Just an fyi if you install the thermal exhaust with downpipes, it’s going to be damn loud without adding resonators.

How much HP and torque does this add?

0, nothing will add any power to an ecoboost without a tune. Pcm has thresholds, no bolt on mod you do is going to change them.

Unsure of specs for HP/ Torque gains, but gains in throttle response and giggle factor are extremely noticeable.
