New ATL member 2022 ST

[ATLien]

Howdy gang,

New here, just got a 2022 Explorer ST. Love it, got literally every single option Ford had to offer on it. I'm from the ATL area if anyone is around, would love to see what some others in my area do with theirs for fun. Only had mine for about 2-3 weeks.
Did have a few questions for the vets of the group. b/c to be fully transparent I dont know **** all about the inner working of cars. This is just the first "nice" "performance" vehicle I've ever owned, so pretty pumped about it. Really looking for any guidance on how to improve the power and sound of this beast.
1. the keyless entry on the door, how do I find my code for this? or create one of my own?
2. performance question: i told myself id spend 3-5k on a combo or intake/exhaust/chips etc.. where is my best place to begin this side of the journey who do you guys recommend using? Again, i dont have much knowledge here so not trying to destroy my daily driver
3. is it possible to jailbreak this MASSIVE abomination of a head unit so it doesn't automatically split the screen in half into 2 separate but equally terrible parts? shot in the dark here

Hey there,

I only know the answer to your first question:
In order to reset the code, you have to go to a Ford dealership. Granted the previous owner did not change the code from it's factory code, you can find it either in the owners manual and if it is not still there some have a sticker on the driver's door.

Welcome to the forum! I'll try to help answer your questions.
1. You can ask a dealer to look it up using your VIN or you can retrieve it using Forscan, I believe.
2. If you are looking to get tuned, ZFG Stage-1 would be my first choice and Goosetuned a close second.
3. Yes. Check out this thread: Full Screen

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new buy. I’d start with an ZFG tune and intercooler. Will get you off to a great start. If you want to go further, check out my modding guide, which I’ve included below.
