2023 Ranger Raptor 3.0 stock read anyone ?

The factory ECU cannot be unlocked at this time. The solution is to swap in older module (same hardware, but less security). The older module can be unlocked and tuned.

Is that possible on the 2.3L Broncos? I can't imagine there would be much difference, in terms of strategy, between a Bronco and a Ranger. When you swap the PCM, is it just a matter of doing a PMI with FDRS to write the VIN? Or is there still some unlocking that needs to happen internally (bootloader hack, etc)?

Heard a rumor that the owner of Full-Race.com purchased a new Raptor Ranger and feels he will be able to tune it, by transferring hardware/software from his F-150 Raptor!??

I didn't really understand exactly how he plans on doing it, but he did mention the subject at the tail end of a podcast with HP academy.

The 2.3L uses a different ECU entirely.

Several have been tuned this way already.
