So I think the whole Stackry / MyUs consolidated order thing is a waste of time unless you are prepared to lie about the value of the goods and use the cheapest carrier that even they list as āunreliableā. Iāve got Ā£200 worth of car parts and Apparel on their way and itās cost me Ā£400 when you...
Hi,
Two options I can suggest. If you're buying various items from the US get them consolidated for cheaper import with a personal Stackry or MyUs address. I'm trying this for the first time with stackry as recommneded by others on the forum. They are consolidating my order from Shelby, Foose...
A further update following a longer journey. From Ringwood on A31, M27 and M3 as far as the M25 (so about 70 miles) without any traffic and gunning it most of the time in regular 'D', I averaged 33mpg.
The best I ever got pre-upgrade (and deliberately driving with economy in mind) was 34, so...
I mirror that exactly. Fitted to my auto by Hendy Performance yesterday and I love the change In drivability and performance. Also sounds amazing with the FP by Borla cat back. Hendy have done lots of these and they said you canāt install one bought from the US as the online registration wonāt...
Mine will be supplied and installed by Hendy Performance. Took two weeks to come in.
Rates Ford had them for sale with a discount on their ebay store but I just checked and they only have pack 1 and 3 now.
It's still out of stock via the Ford website.
No problem getting my money back from Halfords despite having the battery in my boot for 4 months!
So next question - Where can you get a decent battery that does fit?
e.g. At least 62Ah and 620A cranking but no more than 17cm tall.
Cheers
David
So my original battery survived lockdown but today I tried to instal the Yuasa battery I bought from Halfords back in April. And you guessed it - it doesnāt bloody fit! 2cm too tall, so the plastic cover wonāt sit right and it may even foul the bonnet.
Will try to take it back tomorrow after 4...
Thanks, that was second on my list but Iāll check it out, It says you can avoid local sales taxes but I rarely see them mentioned as being included in the first place on US websites.
Hi guys,
Anyone used MyUs Address or similar service to ship from the US, as Iām thinking of signing up?
They give you a unique address to order stuff and you can avoid local sales tax and get multiple purchases consolidated before sending to the U.K. with reduced shipping charges.
Of...
Hi guys,
So my PP2 is being installed in two weeks by Hendy Performance. They honoured the Ford website price that includes installation but I know Hendy will do a proper job (BTW, the installation labour prices from Ford are reasonable if you order the āvoucherā when buying parts - takes a bit...
Yeah I wondered about painting if it could take the heat. My thoughts is that a fancy aluminium tank adds nothing to the performance, but the plastic bubble looks so naff. In my Crossfire, the top half is black as standard and Iāve never given it a second thought, as it just blends in.
Cheers...
Thanks but thatās not quite it. This is the one. It looks like the top half of the tank has been painted. Never seen one over here

Hi guys,
Does anyone know where I can buy one of those moulded expansion tank covers that looks like the top half of the OEM tank is black. Theyāre made by California Pony Cars (CPC) but Iāve not seen them listed by any of the usual suspects in the U.K.
Cheers

This is a great read and confirms I've made the right decision for my requirement. Also they tested with a FP by Borla Touring exhaust like I have, so I can see the combined gains which comes out at 33.1 WHP over stock. Exhaust added 7 and PP2 a further 26 (as opposed to the advertised 21).
It's being supplied and installed by the performance tuning branch of a Ford main dealer. I was trying to figure out how long it will take. However, they've lined me up with a courtesy car, so I'm less concerned now. :like:
Hi guys,
I'm just ordering the Power Pack 2 installation.
Does the calibration process involve talking to anyone in the US or is it totally automatic once it picks up the VIN number?
The reason I ask is the garage say I may not be able to wait while it's done if the US don't answer the...
So Iāve finally decided to go for it with this Upgrade. As Iām still under warranty, I will probably buy and get it installed from a main dealer. Iāve had one recommendation for Gates in Stevenage who did this for a 6G member. Any other suggestions? Looking at NW London, Berks, Bucks, Herts...
