    ORDERD ME A 2020 EXPLORER ST

    I drove it a little more the other day in sport mode. The trans really responds once you get deeper in the throttle. I was shifting it myself while moving through regular traffic and the shifts were pretty slow. But once I had a chance to dip into it the shifts happened as soon as I hit the...

    ORDERD ME A 2020 EXPLORER ST

    Seems like the 1-2 is a bit clunky on its own. But it's smooth once you get moving. I've only driven it once and didn't have the opportunity to lean on it at all. I do have to say the engine note isn't bad at all. Really makes me curious about the S-type Borla system.

    ORDERD ME A 2020 EXPLORER ST

    And a day later we picked up a DSG street pack ST. My wife is stoked so one mission accomplished. I really don't have an issue with the screen since I sit high enough it doesn't impinge my view over the hood. But in the back of my mind I can't help but worry one day I'll smack it too hard...

    ORDERD ME A 2020 EXPLORER ST

    Wife and I just started shopping for an ST. Dealers down here have plenty of time to play games these days so it's been going slow. I'm also pretty interested to find out how the Borla systems sound. When I test drive one the other day I was surprised it didn't have the typical V6 yowl...

    Daily Driving with aftermarket cams / monoblade?

    The throttle body really isn't an issue unless you tend to put the car in gear off idle and let it roll around on its own. Then it will get a little herky jerky at parking lot speeds. But Lund has the tuning for the KB monoblade pretty much perfected. The driveability issue I attribute to my...

    2013 owners with 6 years of ownership, step on in. ( 14's with 5 also )

    Picked mine up Jan 6th, 2013 with 6 miles on the clock. I just turned over 14k. I run Royal Purple XPR 20W50 and it gets changed approximately every 1k miles since I run E85 and its does sit for protracted periods of time. The oil changes aren't cheap. But clean fuel and clean oil are the...

    AEM 320lph pump?

    The next round of upgrades to my '13 GT500 includes switching to E85. Problem is the stock pumps most likely won't be able to support to flow for an expected 900whp. I would prefer to avoid the full return-style system at this point. I'm investigating swapping the pumps in the factory hat...

    Upgrading fuel pumps.

    So it's about time for the new cams, PBH inlet, upper pulley, and E85. Lund did most of this stuff to his car and skipped E85 in favor of 100 octane because he was concerned the stock pumps would not be able to flow enough E85 even with the competition BAP. I'm still not down for a...

    GT350 brake swap

    This is really a question for the people on here who have gotten a good look at the mechanicals of the '15 "cough" Tob "cough" and have seen the brake and suspension mounts. Would it be feasible to swap the new GT350 brakes on my '13? I would be thrilled to death to get a factory setup with...

    Anti-seize on plug threads?

    About time for another oil-change and new set of TR6's on the motor. Being that most of the shops and retailers recommend changing the plugs so frequently on these motors when they are modded; does anyone use anti-seize on their plug threads?

    Monoblade woes

    So I got my monoblade back from Accufab after John said he fixed the throttle blade stop screw and increased the voltage to the actuator. I put it on and made a short trip up the freeway to my parents' house At startup the ide would fluctuate between 500-1000. After it warmed up a little it...

    Stiegemeier ported

    Anybody have a Stiegemeier ported dual-65 TB? I'm wondering if there is any advantage to having them port the dual TB as opposed to just buying the monoblade. I know people have raised some driveability issues with the monoblade versus the dual-65.

    Performance exhaust.

    Does anybody here know of any complete performance exhaust systems available for the SVTF? And when I say complete I mean everythuing from the header to the tip. I see a lot of cat back systems for the ZX3 and Ford is selling some headers but I think they are identical to what comes on the car.

    High/Low beam switch problem

    So I just picked up my '04 SVTF today and I noticed the high beams are constantly switched on. Am I correct in assuming that the switch is activated when you pull the turn-signal stalk all the way back? And if that is correct, is there an audible click to indicate switch activation? There is...
