Earlier this year, we brought you news of Mil-Spec Automotive’s take on the Ford F-150. The Michigan-based tuner had shunned the EcoBoost V6 that Ford uses in the top-spec Raptor, fitting in a naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 producing 500hp. Strong.
That round number was clearly not strong enough for some, though, because Mil-Spec has now unveiled an even tougher supercharged version of its hard-core pickup, which features 675hp and 840Nm of torque. The supercharged F-150’s V8 also gets a new throttle body, intake, and a cat-back exhaust, as well as upgraded fuel rails, new injectors, and a new intercooler.
Looks pretty impressive, too, doesn’t it? Mil-Spec fits special Baja fenders that are seven inches wider than those on a Raptor, and there’s signature LED lighting front and rear. There’s also an optional low-profile roof rack (complete with many spotlights) and a bed rack fitted with a spare wheel for that perfect prerunner image.
You’ll want the Baja Performance Suspension package, which brings with it those Fox Racing shocks and 12 inches of suspension travel, and Mil-Spec says it has fitted new rear shock mounts to retain the F-150’s towing capabilities.
What do you think? Is this something you’d include in your dream garage?
