I'm a total new when it comes to Ecoboost anything. Has anyone preformed these mods on the 2021? I have a 3.5 gas. Is this something I could do without voiding my warranty? Also interested in the white smoke the truck emits, I've seen plenty of trucks white smoke on YouTube so I'm assuming this is common.

there are no resonators or silencers in the intake to remove on the gen14. I have no problem with the VTA. I had it like that on my 2015 2.7 for 6 years as well without any issue. never seen any smoke or exhaust

Not sure about the white smoke. My 3.5 EB blows blue smoke at startup after setting 4-5 hours. Dealer does not seem to be able to correct it.

is it white smoke or water vapor? Two very different things. Water vapor disappears in seconds where white smoke will linger.

It most likely vapor as it dissipates quickly, no lingering nor smell. its upon cold start.

Have you applied it to your '21 yet?

Ya, it took all of 4 min to complete. have only driven about 20 miles but no warnings or anything. on my '15 2.7l it was super loud if you abruptly let off the accelerator. the 3.5 is not as dramatic.
