lol. umm...4 years later?

Factory PP suspension was *not* good. I put Steed shocks and linear springs on my car and not only did it handle better, but it rode better. Weird thing is, I put my GTPP shocks, along with some Steeda progressives, on my wife's base Ecoboost, and it made it ride better. I just don't think the...

Wow. That's a crazy garage. What sort of business are you in? My Engineering clearly just isn't cutting it lol.

YES! IT'S NOT JUST ME!!!!

I live up here and my car is still in storage and we're keeping off the mountain for now. Just last week they were plowing/salting the mountains (blood, unicoi). Yes, plowing. That's how much snow we got just last week. Give it through March and we'll be good.

Only reason I know is because I looked up all the part numbers in order to do the swap on my wife's Ecoboost. The "upper splitter" for the PP2 is indeed a different part than the PP1 splitter.

I wonder if it has something to do with airflow in the engine compartment due to the PP splitter/belly pan. Also, I would definitely try putting the stock thermostat in. Just to see what happens.

There are specific PP1 and PP2 upper splitters, plus there's the PP2 lower splitter. They are different parts.

It won't fit. You have to do an entire front end conversion. The 350 hood sits about an inch lower than the regular car.

No way the next generation comes before MY2025. The "S650" is just going to be an S550.2.

I expect exactly what happened with the S197. You had the major re-design just before the Coyote, then for 13-14 you had headlights/taillights. 2018 wasn't a crazy redesign. Just a newish front clip and, rear valence, and taillights. I can see them introducing a new front/rear next year, then...

Don't care about Video. Anything I want to do with Video, I have multiple Go-Pros for and they are perfect for what I do. Why mirrorless over dSLR?

I'm open to the used market, too. And even older bodies. I'd say up to $1k for the body. But that's not to say $1100 or $1200 is out of the question if it's a huge jump from 1k to 1.1k if that makes sense. I guess....it really depends where that really good "bang-for-the-buck" spot is.

I don't know for a fact, but I'd be willing to bet the PP2 isn't legal in EU isn't because of the wheels...it's because of the splitter. EU has much worse pedestrian crash laws than US.

Got any other pictures of it with the previous setup? That's damn near what I was considering.
