I removed my CPE charge pipes, and HKS bov etc. going back to recirculating, the whistle was great but its time for my quiet cruiser again.
I'm surprised you are going back to recirculating. I think the sound of turbos spooling up and the blow off valve is addicting. I assume the ecoboost uses a map sensor which allows you to go either route?

When it comes to daily driving, the only real difference between NA and FI (specifically, the SC) is torque. You have more of it, easier driving and ability to keep your RPM's low.

HP comes into play the further down your foot goes, making it very intentional. It's not an electric motor where you have gobs of instant and uncontrolled power, it's very linear.

Definitely recommend going for a ride with someone that has a SC car, feel the driveability of it. Heck, maybe they'll even let you drive it too and you can experience it directly yourself. But a warning, you may like it a lot and be prompted to make emotional financial decisions.
Appreciate the advice. I do see the down low torque with the twin screw, a close friend has a ZL1 and also an SS that he put the SLP SC kit on.

Will keep my eyes peeled for a local SC Coyote.

lol a drag radial would be ideal. But as I stated above the Michelin and Continental work well for a lot of people when driven within the tires abilities :)

Roush does not allow for much of anything to be changed in the engine compartment. Changing the pulley would be one of those things that void your warranty.

I don't know about the clutch. I wouldn't think it would void the warranty....but would have to ask.

Hmmm... keep talkin' I'm listening...
By right tire you're talking a drag radial?

... can you take the Roush and increase the pulley to lower boost on the stock Ford program (to keep warranty)?

What about clutch?

Yep, map lets you do anything. Maf wouldn’t allow the same flexibility

Ilike the intake noise now that I have a velossa tech snorkel and afe filter, my gf has always complained about the bov and meh.

I will make her happy. I went from loud downpipe tonoem downpipe and enjoying a quiet ride again.
I just Turned. All over now for me. Lol moving to a Prius soon jk

just packed it up!

My mustang sits hopelessly in driveway with parts missing and can’t run. So I’m out running it’s matching motorcycle.

Used the Mustang to pickup dinner.

In other news, I broke up with my GF the other day. Today someone rang the doorbell to ask if my Mercedes was for sale. I sold what was her car for x3 more than I paid for it. 😎

are you joking about someone knocking on your door to buy your car and paying 3x what you paid? are car buyers this desperate?

and good looking ride Matthew!

Broke up and made money are not usually in the same sentence :)
