All you need is an intercooler, down pipe, pro-tune and at least some 275's on the rear and you'll be virtually untouchable on surface roads from light to light. The lighter weight of the Eco and bigger tires combined with all of that torque will embarrass higher HP cars when punching it from...

91 octane is decent fuel but its still more prone to knock than 93. It doesn't sound crazy that the ECU would richen up to account for the mid-grade gas.

Cobb hasn't figured that out yet? I thought for sure they would have by now. Of all of the modifications I've done, actually in my entire life, the on-the-fly map switching is the funnest thing I've used.

The picture below is all the units I've had on my car with the stock one thrown in for comparison. MAPerformance street on top, Levels, and then the FFTEC w the Garrett core on the bottom. The street units (the single tier stock-style as opposed to the double tall units) are more than enough for...

Not just the best, but essential. The way the Ecoboost is set to run, it is always going to be hamstrung by heat soak to a degree, its just a question of how much. Its a super hot running motor. Most power adders don't matter if the air is too hot. Boiled down, the performance of any Ecoboost...

Probably nothing but better charge temps, even if you went with one of the larger cores. To slow down your spool time or any other negative effects would probably take an intercooler so big that it wouldn't fit without fabrication anyway. Maybe someone who's done it can chime in. A stock sized...

Yeah, that would have made it a little more clear

Is that one with the most fouling from cylinder #3?

The Magnusen-Moss Warranty Act technically offers you some legal protection. However, if you were around in 2015/16 when the 1st gen motors were popping off left and right, you might have a different level of faith as to what exactly a dealer will cover when you bring them a tuned car with a...

When you first visit the service dept, ask about mods. If they're wishy washy at all about performance mods and warranty, that's all I need to hear and I will never visit them for warranty work. Some ppl don't have a choice because they live out in the boonies but if you live in any sort of...

Sorry, but that was funny.

First search result in google, homie. https://www.cjponyparts.com/performance-upper-grille-renegade-series-with-led-fog-lights-drl-halo-rings-v6-ecoboost-gt-2015-2017/p/G226/?year=2017&gclid=CjwKCAiA3uDwBRBFEiwA1VsajIWF_b4CTV7Q-vwSXTIUo7U_uL7WFyMWOPWME0CHQ_m16c7covRoHBoCtBcQAvD_BwE

Get a retrieving magnet. (looks like a telescoping antenna mast) You can pick them up cheap at any autoparts store. Slide the C clamp off with a flathead screwdriver while also holding the magnet to the clamp. Once it snaps off, It won't go anywhere. I've swapped wastegates several times and am...

If you're going to spend the money on the Cobb AP you really should get a custom tune while you're at it. Those off the shelf tunes are okay but are still very neutered, don't feel that great, and really should only be a placeholder until you get a custom map.

Most of the old factory issues have been ironed out. The Ecoboost is now Ford's main rental fleet representative as well when it comes to the Mustang. Might not be as dead nuts reliable as the 3.7 V6 it replaced but its probably close.

I have the PP with the gauge in the middle. Its completely useless if you're looking to monitor boost, especially if you're tuning it. The parallax error from your eye to the gauge (ever try to see how much gas someone has while sitting in the passenger seat?) combined with the small size of the...

Not sure but it makes sense that they changed it. That torx bit was a royal pain in the ass.

Daily driving and if by track days you mean drag racing, the stock sized units perform surprisingly well. Nothing wrong with the bigger units either as I have one myself, they're just generally more expensive and the smaller upgraded units performed shockingly similar to my current Garrett unit...

I would upgrade the wastegate next.

Power-adders won't get you very far without a tune. The ECU will be trying to figure out why WGDC and boost targets are all out of whack and just be constantly pulling the reigns in on you. And a tune will only get you so far without an intercooler. I've lived in the DC area. After 15 minutes...
