About the Build
This 2013 Ford Raptor belongs to none other than New York Islanders Goaltender Thomas Greiss. With the request for a little more power we took his well seasoned Raptor with nearly 100k miles on it and gave it a boost. We reached out to Roush Motorsports for their Stage 2 supercharger kit for the raptor  we also added a set of Granatelli Motorsports Plug wires for some added spark power. With 100k miles on the clock we did a front to back maintenance service  including full fluid change, new coils, and  NGK iridium spark plugs on the truck to keep it in tip top shape for the new power.  We also added a bit of a custom touch with a upgrade to the braking system of the truck with Crown Stainless Steel Brake lines replacing all soft lines, R1 Concepts Geometric Rotors custom engraved G1 and Ford Motorsports Sever Duty brake pads to help slow the big beast of a truck down. We capped of the build with a custom boost gauge from AutoMeter Custom Shop to match the factory gauges. The Raptor is very subtle under part throttle untill you lay in to the throttle and the boost builds you quickly reach triple digits speed.
