    Thermal Exhaust Installation

    snap, crackle, and pop; overrun; or a "burble tune" noise (a favorite of VW and Audi); comes about with excess fuel in the hot exhaust. while it sounds AMAZING--it is a byproduct of wasted fuel. good tuners tend not to waste fuel. i had a friend with an APR burble tune on his RS3 and it dropped...

    Lowering Springs Pros and Cons

    Yup. Running 305/40r22 tires on 22x10.5E30 custom forged wheels. no rubbing with Steeda lowering springs. My particular set of Steeda springs actually settled lower than advertised drop as well. Before that, I was running the stock street pack wheel/tire setup with 1.25" spacers. those also...

    Lowering Springs Pros and Cons

    If a "con" exists I haven't come across it in over a year of ownership. I guess if you want bigger tires and to turn your ST into a more overlanding type rig there is a con there but then again if that was your intent you wouldn't be even considering lowering springs to begin with.

    Whipple intercooler

    so you note something interesting. in your fedex tracking notification, does it say "label created" or "item ready for pickup"? if all you got was the "label created" notification, all that means is that Whipple put your info into the fedex website and created a tracking/shipping order. your...

    Whipple intercooler

    There is only one to my knowledge. A couple guys have done one-off custom jobs and Ron with Whoosh is in the process of developing his but the Whipple is the only commercially available unit that I'm aware of.

    Best tune for 2020 Ford Explorer ST

    To my knowledge 5 Star doesn't offer a warranty with their tune, you need to purchase a warranty (they also only will honor it if all of your other engine "bolt ons" are sold by them or Stage 3). Other outfits do this, but you might be better off speaking with your car insurance company if you...

    Whipple intercooler

    It depends on a place's inventory. Some drop ship and some carry in-stock inventory. Ron had posted here a long time ago about not carrying these in stock and he put the ones he had in inventory on sale, so if you only ordered from whoosh less than two weeks ago, at that point Whipple was...

    UNBROKEN’s Iconic Silver ST build

    I really don't understand why I don't see more of those around job sites. F-150s have gotten way too big, and there is two my Dad's ranch-hands use, and they beat those things to within an inch of their life all day long six days a week... AND THEY JUST WONT DIE...
