Impossible Tune Roxor 2.7 L

[Bob R1]

In Rural South Central Missouri the Roxor is not Street Legal. HOWEVER I have Texas County, Shannon County, and Dent County Permits, as well as the City of Houston Permit. I drive mine to Houston 17 Miles quite frequently. I am on approximately One Mile of State Road, between Gravel Roads. One County road I drive on to town has around 6 Miles of Black Top. That helps on speed and tire wear. I live in a very good location to get around very well on County Roads. Letter Roads are normally not an issue out in the sticks either. I will buzz Rocky up to 50 MPH on black top. That is 43-45 on the Speedometer with my 245/85R16 tires.
I was out working on the Hunting Lease over the weekend. Rocky will idle up hills in First with no foot feed at all. The 5.38 Gears work out well off road.

I am not that unhappy with the top end its more the acceleration.

This is the exact reason why I got a 2022.

Why stay with that new electronic crap at all...Never give in to any of the government/communist forced mandates...engine swap with one that you can do what ever you want...I was surprised how quickly that 2.7 liter piece of crap sold.
Either that or keep doing what you are doing...wait, then wait some more.

Why would you swap it out vs simply pulling the computer controls?

A QUESTION how much good will THE TUNE do when the 2.7 machine has 5.38 Gears???
You can Red Line a stock 2.7 in Fifth Gear with no problem at all. I seriously doubt that reving past the Red Line is a good plan at all.
The 2.5 with 3.73 gears can use the Boost in Horse Power to go faster in high gear on the road. You run low on power way before you rev it out going up hill on the highway.
The only way I see a 5.38 geared machine benefiting from THE TUNE would be with very Tall Tires.

My 2024 machine runs just fine in stock trim. I see no need for more power without a change in gears or taller tires so that it will run faster. My machine with 245/85R16 tires will run 50 on the highway. That is as fast as I need to go. I am also planning on my Roxor lasting a very long time. I have no plans of tearing it up doing stupid things with it.

You must be in a flat state...these WV hills wear my 2.7 out...

I agree, our property is hilly really have to stay in Low otherwise you find yourself looking for power on hills half way up.
