I wanted to document my ecoboost's journey from a stock Base Non PP car to full Wangan style racer.
My first picture of the car on the morning of August 07 2015, Fresh off the boat and ready to hit the German autobahn for the first time!:love:
Only 24.5 miles on the clock,
Later I was able to change the settings to kilometers and liters to make things easier for me in Europe.
Drove her the 400 odd kilometers home and discovered she was limited to a PP 146 mph rather than a normal base 121.
Where I had a nice package from MAPerformance waiting.
Unfortunately they sent me the wrong adapter for the down pipe Circled in Red. which matches the 3inch cat back not the 2.5 inch stock- oh well I guess I would just have to order the cat back too!
The next morning It began, I hadn't even had the car 24 hrs.
The the Intake came next.
Now I could hear my turbo and light the pitiful 235 Hankook tires at will in first and second- the Cobb 93 stage 1 ots is the map this should have come from the factory with! Night and day difference, if you own an ecoboost and do not have an AP you are doing it wrong, best $500 I ever spent!
New Care package from MAP came in a few days later.
The Intercooler is almost too sexy to hide under the front bumper- A true work of art! That went on next. The car seemed to gain even more power,
But it was sitting to High! the base springs are comically soft and feels over damped making for some weird motions.
New package from CJPP!
Car went from This (this is not my car it's actually. [MENTION=14124]Diablocoastie[/MENTION] 's but it is the best shot of a bone stock DIB EBM I could find)
