Chris here. I drive a 2-door Velocity Blue 2023 Ford Bronco Badlands with Sasquatch, Lux, a 2.7L V6, and an automatic transmission. It’s fun.

What value did you reply give to anyone? You sound like a someone that loves to impose your values on other. I they they have a phrase for that "look at me" type of statement. Virtue signaling.

Its not released yet for the '23 MY, I checked about a week ago. Did that change? I'm waiting for my '23 to be built and in my possession, I'll add it, when its available. No, I'm not hot rodding it, I have a GT 350 R for my power trip. The Bronco is a two door, 2.3 manual, extra power is a nice thing to have, always plan on premium fuel regardless.

lol. Definitely decided to set up my Bronco more street performance than Off Road. Occasional light trail in Central FL, but most of my fun will be street set up. To each his own FUN!

Had the tune for a few months now. Definitely worth it on my ‘21 2.3L.

The 2.3 is no slouch either especially with the manual regardless of what others say.

Will notice smoother shifts and increased power and torque. Will also notice those premium gas prices.

Update: Dealer got my tune installed today. Pretty impressive! Ford warns that the vehicle needs to "learn" for a few days and will adjust to my driving style, but DAMN! There's a serious improvment (it was impressive to me before) in power and get up and go. But the best news is that the tune specifically allows for adjustments to differential swaps and 37inch tires. I should be able to program the bigger tires into the tune and have the spedo and all the other electronic stuff calibrate without any additional programing by the dealer.

A lot of people think this doesn’t effect their warranties. Read on.

SELECT FORD PERFORMANCE PARTS LIMITED WARRANTY
Rev. February 14, 2021
Ford Motor Company, The American Road, Dearborn, MI 48025, provides a Limited Warranty on select Ford Performance Parts and as described herein when installed on late model Ford vehicles. This warranty works in conjunction with -- and does not void -- the Manufacturer's New Vehicle Limited Warranty. It is valid for the original retail purchaser of the vehicle and is transferable to subsequent vehicle owners.
Performance Packs and Component Parts
Performance Packs and Components are warranted for factory-supplied material or workmanship when correctly and completely installed on a late model Ford vehicle by an authorized Ford or Lincoln Dealer, Shelby American, Inc., or an automotive service technician certified by the Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) or endorsed by the Red Seal Program (RSE). This Performance Packs and Components Limited Warranty begins upon installation and registration of the part(s) with Ford Performance and remains in effect for the balance of 36 months or 36,000 miles / 60,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first, calculated from the start date of the manufacturer's New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Installation of these select Ford Performance warranted performance packs and components by an authorized installer will NOT void your New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Engine, driveline and suspension concerns not caused by the use of Ford Performance parts remain eligible for warranty coverage according to the terms of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Ford Performance parts are aftermarket parts. The use of Ford Performance parts may impact the performance characteristics of other systems of the vehicle. Even when operating properly, Ford Performance parts, such as these, have the potential to adversely impact other systems of the vehicle. If an adverse impact is caused by a warranted Ford Performance pack or component, the period and coverage of this Ford Performance Limited Warranty applies to the repairs.
Premium Fuel Requirement: Customers who purchase power upgrade packs, cold air kits with calibration, engine calibrations, or superchargers are required to use 91-octane or higher (“premium”) fuels at all times. Any failures associated with the non-use of premium fuel will be ineligible for warranty repair.
Performance Handling Pack FR3/FR3A Note: Performance handling packs are designed for "Track Day" ride and handling. Such performance standards suggest the vehicle ride will be more indicative of race performance vehicles. Certain vehicle conditions including, but not limited to, squeaks, rattles and harsh ride related to use of a Performance Handling Pack or components will not be covered under this Limited Warranty. The performance handling pack requires the use of original equipment size wheels only. It is strongly recommended after installation that the alignment be checked to ensure measurements are within factory specifications. Premature tire degradation will not be covered under this Limited Warranty. Contact the Ford Performance Call Center at (800) 367-3788 or [email protected] for front end alignment information.
Warranty Registration: This Limited Warranty requires that parts must be purchased from an authorized Ford Performance Distributor and installed by an authorized Ford or Lincoln Dealer, Shelby American, Inc., or an automotive service technician certified by the Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) or endorsed by the Red Seal Program (RSE). Proof of purchase is required for submission of warranty claims. Registration for this warranty must be submitted through the Ford Performance Call Center at (800) 367-3788 or [email protected] with the vehicle identification number (VIN), part installation repair order and date, Ford Performance part number,

Good info. Basically, follow the rule and you're ok. But, premium fuel is the "catch all" for warranty.

What performance upgrade do you get from your current setup and what do you expect when you change the intercooler?
