It will throw a code if you remove it, but it can be deleted with a handheld tuner. I kept mine after installing a CPe intercooler, since mine is a daily and do most of my driving on the highway. Was pretty light, so the weight savings are negligible.
Another option some people do is cut off...
Selling a set a 19" Ecoboost Wheels and Stripes Package wheels and tires. Wheels are in great condition with no curb rash or any visible scratches. Tires are 255-40/R19 Pirelli P-Zero Nero All-Seasons, they have plenty of tread left, the person I got the set from said about 3k miles on them...
I did both the front and back myself. I bought the back ones on ebay for about $140 shipped, bought the fronts from shelby, I think they also sell the back ones as well. The fronts are pretty easy to replace, however for the backs take some time due to the parking brake hook, which you need a...
I have a set of 20" Foundry wheels and tires. The wheels are in excellent condition with no curb rash or any other visible imperfections that I could tell. The tires are the factory Pirelli P-Zeros with approximately 2000 miles on them and a good 80-90% tread left. Included are the TPMS for all...
You need 5.7 Qts of 5W30 motor oil, I would recommend going for full synthetic, I like the pennzoil platinum, but any top brand will be fine as long as its full synthetic. As far as oil filters I've done some research, and for a daily driver I recommend the Bosch 3330 from autozone around $7 is...
If the car is going to be a daily driver, I'd recommend you find a Ecoboost Premium w/o PP, the interior amenities of the premium are going to make a bigger difference in day to day situations than the PP.
Also, you can add on most of the PP stuff yourself later for less than $2k, including a...
I'd recommend buying a set of PP wheels and tires for around $1200 shipping, and since you live in Cali I'm sure you can find a local pick-up option for around $1000. Even if you fit the 265 tire on the 18x8 wheel, you will have uneven treadwear and crazy sidewall flex.
Correct, even though you are saving a substantial amount of weight from the wheels, the heavier tires and the higher equivalent mass ratio of the tire is counteracting the overall weight reduction. That why it's important to match the tires/grip with the application.

Hey guys,
I recently bought a set 20" OEM foundry wheels and kept reading how people complained of their weight. As I browsed the forums I kept reading posts comparing unsprung weight and sprung weight, and that saving a pound of unsprung weight would result between 6-10 pounds savings of...
I'm interested in doing this as well, mostly for looks but the better performance won't hurt if I decide to track it someday. To the member who has done it already, have you noticed any change in the front/rear brake bias?
