In recent years, Ford Performance has offered performance upgrades/tunes/calibrations for a variety of models, and we aren’t just talking about performance-focused vehicles, either. Rather, one can purchase a power boost from the automaker for any number of models these days, and that includes the Ford Ranger. The previous-gen version of that mid-size pickup got its own Power Pack that added 45 horsepower and 60 pound-feet of torque to its turbocharged 2.3L I-4 EcoBoost engine, and now, the all-new 2024 Ford Ranger is getting a performance tune of its own.
The new 2024 Ford Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost Performance Calibration, as it’s officially known, is listed in the Ford Performance catalog under part number M-9603-REBA and retails for $825. The new calibration is 50-state legal with a CARB number, and has been engineered and dyno tested by the automaker itself. However, it provides precisely the same power boost as the previous-generation calibration – 45 horsepower and 60 pound-feet of torque, along with improved throttle response throughout the rev range, and an optimized shift schedule as well.
The 2024 Ford Ranger calibration comes with the Ford Performance Pro Cal 4 calibration tool (part number M-12655-F) as well as a three-year, 36k-mile warranty when installed by a Ford dealer or ASE/Red Seal certified technician. It does require 91 octane or higher fuel, and can be configured to work properly with a tire size of up to 265/70R17 – as recommended with the M-18000-R Ranger Off-Road Suspension Leveling Kit.
This new 2024 Ford Ranger calibration comes on the heels of a handful that have launched in recent months, including one for the Ford Bronco Raptor and Ford Ranger Raptor that are equipped with the the twin turbocharged 3.0L V6 EcoBoost engine, upping output to 455 horsepower and 536 pound-feet of torque. Shortly after that debuted, the 2021-2023 Ford F-150 and F-150 Raptor got a special calibration of their own for models equipped with the twin turbocharged 3.5L V6 EcoBoost, lifting output to 450 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque for the former and 466 horsepower and 554 pound-feet for the latter.
