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 can’t install one bought from the US as the online registration won’t provide a calibration for a US sourced part against a UK VIN.
Not having much luck trying to get help from Ford about this other than being told to take it to dealership (I'm sure they'd know!)
Yes, that confirms it. I've not fitted my Borla Type S, and the car is transformed. It really does sound properly muscular now. Cruising at an indicated 75mph on the Motorway, I do find the "Buh Buh Buh Buh" to be quite noticeable - it's not quite the drone-free proposition as proclaimed by various Borla resellers you see on Youtube. I would have preferred if it was a little quieter at a cruise, but it's a small price to pay to get that proper V8 burble. In every other scenario it is awesome.
If the volume does get to be too much for you, you could always fit the Borla centre resonator (essentially making a Borla Touring system). it does seem to give more sound deadening than the factory resonator and will also reduce any rasp from the S type axle backs compared to the factory resonator BUT it could kill the sound just a little bit too much for you!
Thanks for the response, much appreciated. I am surprised it would be quieter than the stock resonator, but I guess they made it as a package. I'll leave it for now, I think I have already splurged enough on the car :-).
Still listed, although says out of stock, worth an email enquiry
The PP2 is basically this with Ford charging you a ÂŁ1k for a tune and to fit it. An aftermarket tune would be cheaper and provide more performance.
Yes got mine there too, also dead easy to fit and the Ford performance download was no bother, just make sure your battery voltage is good and you have a good 'internet' connection speed.
