I just found an EcoBoost w/ PP in my desired color very close to me. It was just delivered a few days ago. Looking at the package the most concerning thing is the tires are summer-only. I cannot seem to find 255/40R19 winter tires, and I'm not sure what other sizes I should search for. I can...

I'm about to pick up an EcoBoost Mustang this week, and I'm just feeling a bit :/ about the manual transmission in this car. I had bad luck with the MT-82 in my 14 v6, and I'm hearing how the auto in these cars is pretty solid, and a good tune can really really bring it to life. I like...

I can't wait to install mine to my soon to be new to me 15 This is the fix for the MT82, without a doubt. I wrecked a sychro in my 14's MT82 missing a shift with the stock shifter. Never again...

Any experience with the MGW with and without the bushing?

My 14 had this issue too but the dealer was unable to reproduce it. Happens most when the engine is cold.

Ahh the PCV is one way! Explains that picture from the link. So under vacuum the fumes go directly from the crank case to the intake manifold, and under boost that line is closed to keep it from back flowing (?) and instead goes through the turbo and thus, back to the intake. So I'll be going...

Can't buy a car on a Sunday in CO. :(

You have the MGW?

Yes. The linkage design on the stock shifter sucks. I could rant and rant and rant about this all day long. It sucks. The MGW bolts right on to the tranny, flexes with the drivetrain (as it should be) and fixes the shitty shifts. You'll be able to hit 3rd gear every singe time, even at 7K.

This is a long thread that has had a lot of replies so far but I wanted to respond to these two comments. The issue with gear lockouts is due to the shitty design of the linkage on the stock shifter. The linkage between the shifter and the shifting shaft of the transmission has no less than 3...

You're right, I don't understand the PCV system at all. Even the reading you posted is a bit over my head. I couldn't point to a crank case on a motor so I don't quite understand this to an extreme degree. I would like to though, I'll do some more Googling.

Okay thats reasonable, it could make deposits onto the turbo blades. Why even run a pcv tube to the turbo, why not just dump the crankcase vapor into the intake and call it good? Then we wouldn't need the dual catch can.

What bad can happen from oil getting to the turbo? I realize it's bad when it gets into the intake/valves, but what about the turbo?

I read through that thread, I am slightly confused as I don't understand the pcv system on these cars (or any really). It seems like the Mishimoto doesn't help from feeding the oily gases directly to the turbo where as the UPR does? What significance does this have?

I had a 14 with the manual and the stock fill vs Redline MTL was just night and day. Smoother gear changes and movement as well as better cold driving.

Any foreseeable future problems running E30 vs the E10 in regular pump gas? I thought Ethanol could cause additional build up in the engine internally in addition to breaking down fuel lines etc etc.

Hi folks, I'm increasingly close to pulling the trigger on a 15 EcoBoost, but have a few other questions about modifications. What's the recommended catch can manufacturer? From extensively reading many threads in this forum it looks like the 2.3L I4 has a lot of potential with...

Any reading you can suggest on the supplemental port injections/kits?

I was originally considering the v6 as I had a 2014 v6 before, but they're hard to come by with a manual and my color choice without ordering from the factory, which is now closed for 2015. I'm considering a 2015 EcoBoost but have some concerns. What's the boost power band feel like? -...

I haven't ever seen or heard of this product. A quick search of my favorite detailing forums seems to bring to light a question regarding its legitimacy. I won't comment officially though because I haven't used it.
