  1. Head Gasket Issues

    As a preventative measure I, and others, have installed the CFM valve cover breather that allows positive crankcase pressure to be released to atmosphere while a check ball stops air from being sucked into the engine under vacuum. Unchecked positive crankcase pressure can blow thru seals and...
  2. Catted Down Pipe Tunes

    I will add my 2 cents since I actually run a catted downpipe with both the OEM tune and the Bama 91 perf tune. I have been running this configuration for about 12k miles with about half the miles untuned vs. tuned. I haven't noticed any difference other than the obvious power gains when tuned...
  3. J&M minimal drop springs over Koni str.t

    This setup is great for street since it's not harsh and doesn't bottom out ever.
  4. Drop in replacement high flow air filter. Are they really worth it ?

    I've been using K&N for over 30 years in all motorcycles and cars. If maintained properly you will never need to buy a replacement filter. I have the recharge kit and keep the OEM filter when cleaning and drying the K&N. K&N filters will flow better than paper OEM throughout the lifetime of the...
  5. How common is EcoBoom?

    Ford does have a questionable past as do most car manufacturers but changing part numbers happens all the time without any change in the manufacturing process. I have no loyalty to Ford and if there is an actual defect or inferior build I want it exposed so we can all make informed decisions...
  6. How common is EcoBoom?

    I would like to see some physical evidence of inferior build quality between the rods. I would think that after 6 years someone could prove there is a different in build quality or present some evidence of something. I have never seen or heard any credible evidence to suggest a difference in...
  7. How common is EcoBoom?

    In another thread you replied that the engine had the Ford tune so you are straight up lying about having a stock tune. Why do you feel the need to spread false information? Also, based on the information you provided in other posts you didn't experience an Ecoboom but some other engine failure...
  8. Blow-by

    The amount will obviously depend many factors. I ran a simple test on my EB and kept all the oil sludge from my JLT oil separator for a few thousand miles and it came out to over 3 ounces. I ran with a tune for 600 miles and without a rune for 600 miles (round trip) and noticed the amount of...
  9. 2019 ecoboost black stuff coming out of exhaust pipe

    I enjoyed the Mustang in stock form just fine and once the warranty ended I said F buying a new Mustang and just upgraded a bunch of parts. I have the JLT oil separator and it works great, but it needs to be checked every 1k miles because it is only 3 ounces. There is an extension for th JLT...
  10. 2019 ecoboost black stuff coming out of exhaust pipe

    My car was bone stock for 5 years and 40k miles and I only recently added mods including an oil separator and an ECU flash. I did have the induction service done by Ford to clean out any carbon buildup and my 02 sensors failed a couple of days after the service from all the carbon soot or the...
  11. 2019 ecoboost black stuff coming out of exhaust pipe

    I have a 2015 with 46k miles and I get that black soot as well. Probably carbon buildup from the GDI engine and condensation.
  12. Does an after market CAI void the warranty?

    I would suggest using a drop in high flow air filter like a K&N that will not void the warranty. A CAI may cause warranty issues.
  13. Can you get your shinier than new?

    I keep my cars in pristine condition using very basic washing and waxing. I switched from spray wax to spray ceramic sealant and I get compliments all the time. It helps that I work from home and the car is always garaged. I simply run my hands down the paint and if the paint is not silky smooth...
  14. Looking to get myself back into a mustang. Have a big question about the ecoboosts

    A Ford dealership will be able to tell if the ECU has been flashed or not. I have an early EBPP premium that was bone stock for the first 5 years of ownership. The engine was flawless and It had no mechanical issues. A visible OEM engine bay is a good indication that the Mustang was not modified...
  15. trailer hitch

    The tongue weight for the Mustang is 200 pounds so make sure the carrier and walker are under 200 pounds. I'm getting a hitch on my 2015 Ecoboost to trailer my ZX6R. Curt makes a nice trailer hitch for the Mustang.
  16. Quoted $920 for Lowering Spring Install and Alignment!!

    I just upgraded shocks/struts, and springs at a cost of over 600 including the alignment. I installed the rear shocks myself and preassembled the front struts prior to delivery to the shop.
  17. Quieting down Borla S Type Cat back

    I have an Ecoboost with a complete turbo back exhaust that was too loud in the cabin on boost. I had a muffler shop install a glasspack where the OEM resonator was and it brought the level down about 20-30 percent. A resonator or glasspack should be sufficient.
  18. SR Performance Brembo replica caliper convers

    Those are not identical to the SR performance but close. They have different connections, hardware, etc.
  19. SR Performance Brembo replica caliper convers

    Sorry but I don't have any other links for the SR Performance caliper covers. Send an email to American Muscle and let the know your situation. They may be able to contact SR Performance and order only the rear covers.
  20. SR Performance Brembo replica caliper convers

    No Clearance issues at all. The are cast from the brake caliper so they fit very snug on the calipers. The wheels are OEM EBPP wheels with 255/40/19 tires. They look great from every angle and it's difficult to tell they are covers unless you get close. I was thinking about painting them until...
