The Ford Performance catalog is rolling out a supercharger and dress-up kit for ’21 to ’23 F-150 trucks.

If you wanted a 700-hp Ford F-150 and didn't already drop the big bucks on a Raptor R, the folks at Ford Performance might have a solution for you, rolling out the FP700 package. The name comes from the horsepower figure after topping off your 5.0-liter-powered F-150 with a 3.0-liter Whipple supercharger. Of course, just a supercharger doesn't warrant an entire package name, and this FP700 kit also comes with some appearance upgrades to give your lightly used F-150 sharper styling as well.

The 3.0-liter Whipple supercharger stuffs enough air into the 5.0-liter V8 to generate up to 700 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. For reference, that means your ’21 F-150's 400 hp is nearly doubled, with almost a 50% bump in torque. That's a lot of extra oomph. The kit doesn't include any upgrades to the truck's fuel system, but it does come with a warranty when installed by a Ford dealer or ASE-certified technician. Ford Performance also says this kit is legal in 50 states and is CARB certified in California.

This 430 pound shipping container includes a set of 22-inch alloy wheels, lug nuts, a rear lowering kit, a replacement grille, and some graphics. For the inside, you’ll also get a new set of Ford Performance carpeted floor mats. Now, Ford is offering this with two different exterior packages: Bronze (with bronze-finished rims and graphics) and Black (with gloss black wheels and graphics).

This sounds like a lot, and it costs a lot. Ford will set this package in the bed of your F-150 for $12,300 before taxes. Tires and installation will obviously set you back some extra cash, especially if you want to capitalize on the three-year, 36,000-mile warranty. Though, in the end, you’ll have 700 hp worth of hot-rod pickup to enjoy.
