- Ford Performance is now offering Bronco owners a kit that adds 30 horsepower and 60 pound-feet of torque to models equipped with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine.
- The tune not only improves power figures, but also claims to improve throttle response and optimize shift points for automatic-transmission Broncos.
- The Ford Performance tune for the Bronco is available in all 50 States for the 2021 model, but is not available in California for 2022 models.
The Ford Performance wizards are offering a tuning kit that increases horsepower and torque figures for the Bronco’s base turbocharged 2.3-liter inline-four. Available for 2021 and 2022 models, the $825 tune adds 30 horsepower and 60 pound-feet of torque to the EcoBoost turbo-four, bringing horsepower level with the larger twin-turbo 2.7-liter V-6 at 330 hp. Torque lags behind that of the larger engine at 385 pound-feet, and the torque peak arrives at a slightly higher 3500 rpm. Importantly, these power figures are only achievable using premium fuel. Dropping to regular fuel caps power at a reduced 275 horsepower and 315 pound-feet of torque.
The kit also aims to improve throttle response and optimize shift points for automatic-transmission equipped Broncos to go along with the additional power. In manual-transmission Broncos, the kit includes rev-matching functionality for your downshifting pleasure. There’s also the option to modify your base Bronco so it can take tires as large as the 37-inch BFGoodrich KO2 rubber offered on the Bronco Raptor.
While the optional 2.7-liter V-6 engine costs $1895 from the factory, this Ford Performance tune offers the same horsepower figure for less than half the price. The tune comes with a three-year, 36,000-mile warranty when it is installed by a Ford dealer or certain certified technicians.
