I popped on the steeda Spring yesterday. I've been running it without a spring for the past 3 weeks and It's definitely lighter and had to get used to it and had a few bogged shifts while getting acclimated.
It's definitely smoother but I'm not really sold on it just yet, need more seat time...
Update on the hood crack issue:
per ford's request I was asked to stop by the koons ford dealer in falls church and have the Foreman take some additional shots.
He pointed out that the crease in the middle of the hood is in perfect condition and there is damage done to the car. He seemed...
I had to deal with this. Virginia weather can't make up its mind. It's going to be in the mid sixties later this week.

DirtRoadTrip Zip ties to the mesh up top and 3m double sides on the bottom (not needed but better than metal to bumper contact)

Just popped in the steeda 35 lbs spring. No tools needed for install really, took all of 45 seconds. Feels slightly lighter, I'll test it out tomorow. Hope it's still as smooth as without a spring minus any dead zone.

Was putting on my hood struts today and noticed this lovely surprise.... a crack in the paint. The car has 900 miles, I've yet to wash it either since the first hose down when I brought it home. Looks like I'll be dropping by the dealer.

received my SOLO MACH XV catback exhaust, BMR performance springs, BMR lock out, taillight tints and sequencer, and MMD Hood Strut. Hope it's not too cold this week end, i'd love to knock these out on this 3 day week end!.
Placed an order over the week end for the Solo Mach XV catback along with the bmr springs and lockout kit, everything should be here by thursday. Any word on that install party :D ?
Hope the weather clears out soon, this whole "intermittent snow storms" isn't working out lol
Oh yeah, I'd be pissed if I dropped this much just to have it sound like stock lol. I started by looking at the mbrp street and Borla a but the mbrp gets quite tinny / raspy while the Borla S price tag isn't too friendly lol
After some back and countless YouTube "listening sessions" lol, I decided I'm going to play it safe and go with the xv first. Worst case scenario I'll just buy the thunder mid pipe if I want a little more volume, but I just want to wake it up, no set off alarms everywhere I go lol.
Steve has...
From what I was told when I spoke to Steve, the cabin with all setups will be well insulated at cruising speeds. It's how it sounds outside and how much volume you're looking to get when you mash it.
