    Intercooler Upgrade Question

    A lot of people have been spreading this false information. No you do not need to recalibrate anything.

    25 ST Powertrain Malfunction / Reduced Power

    I was saying is was an full refresh, not a full redesign. The lower trims received a completely new 2.3L, and the 3.0L was updated with different turbos, and some other little things. The engine control modules are different as are most of the other electronics. The basic mechanics may be...

    Looking for 22x10 wheels.

    Superforged Lightning and Vossen HF-2 are pretty similar to those.

    S&B or K&N CAI

    With upgraded turbos, a CAI will make a little difference, nothing major but still worth noting.

    shit_st build

    There's quite a but more you can do for the rear suspension. You have stuff like the rear vertical links, toe links, and subframe bushings. Check out my modding guide for these vehicles: Explorer ST Modding 101 Guide | Explorer ST Forum

    Sent this to ford yesterday about IPC cluster

    Definitely couldn't hurt, but I am almost 100% sure that Ford will never do anything about that. The dumb engineers don't care about that and are more focused on the next model.

    25 ST Powertrain Malfunction / Reduced Power

    Well the 2025s are a full refresh so I don’t understand why people think there won’t be problems, especially with Ford’s quality control Do agree though, just had the tranny replaced on my car, and the whole month it was gone I missed it more, just sucks that’s how it has to be.

    JXB bushing insert

    Not saying it applies to you guys, but could just be those parts causing more NVH. Could possibly be normal, but I don’t know how bad it is occurring.

    Thermal R&D 2.5" installed

    Never heard that one before, rear sensors going off because of exhaust fumes. Should be able to just move the whole system back like you mentioned.

    Active leak

    Could be a rear diff leak if it’s locking there. Also is it me or is your rear diff beaten up on the bottom there.

    Trans-Brake

    So the car is revving to high while trying to launch with the trans brake is on? Seems like a tuner question to me, but curious to see whats happening.

    JXB bushing insert

    Aftermarket bushings and bolts don't change pinion angle, they keep it from being bad and force it to stay at the correct angle. Love how uneducated some service advisors can be.

    To extend warranty or not

    Correct, Ford would need to prove it caused the failure. I don't know if aftermarket warranties would be held to the Magneson Moss Law that binds Ford, that's what I am curious about myself.

    To extend warranty or not

    What stipulations are you concerned about? Good thing about Ford ESPs is if you’re modded they’re restrained by Magneson Moss Law so they have to prove the part caused the problem before they can void warranty vs aftermarket companies who I would think (I’ve been curious about this myself) could...

    To extend warranty or not

    If you’ve had no problems thus far, and don’t plan to keep it long, skipping the warranty might be okay. If you want extra safe keeping just a get a really basic powertrain warranty with a deductible, should be cheap insurance, but that’s just a safe keeping measure in the case you get unlucky...

    Oil pressure control system

    That would make sense. Also filling up the oil to 6.5 quarts helps too and the Fenfab oil pan seems to help even more.

    Oil pressure control system

    Oil pump tech has been discussed a lot on the high performance group side of things, pretty interesting to see how it all works. These vehicles seem to love to run their oil pressure duty cycle at idle or cruising pretty high, but like you mentioned, once you step on it it does drop...
