After installing the Whipple in mine I noticed a little more lag also, but after installing the FRP Tune there is almost no lag and the throttle response is a lot better than stock. It's no ZFG but it's perfect for what I use it for.

Thank you for the response TJ, I appreciate your participation in the forum.

Hi https://www.explorerst.org/members/tj-steeda.1037/ , first thank for the first rate service. But I wanted to ask about the Steeda Front Swaybar, the rear swaybar is stated improve on the stock smaller rear swaybar to reduce the factory induced understeer and provide a more balanced handling...

Looks like the solid wires are ground and the striped wires are positive, at least on the subwoofer.

Cheers!

I installed the Steeda Toe links and they are built really solid, probably not much difference there unless driven hard. But in my mind it felt a little more solid driving around and pulling into parking lots. I didn't switch the sway bar settings yet because I'm getting older and drinking...

Thanks for being the tester and sharing your results!

New Steeda front sway bar available on the website: https://www.steeda.com/steeda-555-1037-explorer-front-sway-bar I'm curious to see how balanced the handling is when paired with their rear sway bar. Will it need to be left on the softest setting with the rear on the stiffest? Time will tell!

Gotta work late tonight, but maybe soon!

Man that sounds like fun, I haven't done that since I was in high school. I ran a 14.8 with a '71 Cutlas with a 455 Rocket and a factory Hurst dual gate shifter. Would like to take the ST out there but will have to get permission from the Boss first!

I also have the Gibson and love it...also the wife likes it that's important since it's her daily driver lol!

Accelerating out of a turn ours will hang in 3rd gear so I just hit the right paddle and keep going. It's definately only in sport mode so it's unlikely a fluid level issue, also once you hit the paddle you'll see what gear it's in on the cluster. Cool feature!

Yes, I drove the stock ST on the Park City auto cross track in the rain, and it was obvious the amount of 'push' in the stock set up. The Steeda Sway Bar is stiffer than stock and gives the ST a more balanced handling characteristic, although I have not driven my own vehicle to the same extremes...

I agree, the AFE's would have to be installed as a set to reap the benefits. But for the street I think the Steeda gives it a good balance.

Yeah if I don't have to go into the office I sign in at 6:30ish and enjoy my coffee until around 9:00, usually my first meeting is at 9:30. On weekends it's really bad, I don't go out until the sun is on the way down. Then I'm reachin' for the whiskey glass! Yeah Orangevale is not too far, I...

Yeah that's a long trip accross those deserts! I've got a shimmy at 70-75 mph so it's time to go back to the tire shop and let the kids try balancing them again. I do like the tires though!

Another member said the concern was with engine heat and the cooling system. I can only image a little more timing advance and turbo boost Ford is concerned with overheating or engine damage. I believe the comment was if you're not towing to capacity and climbing large inclines you should be ok...

Yeah, that's only if I have an appointment otherwise I'm just warming up my coffee! What part of Sac are you in? I'm south of Mac Rd, you should avoid it lol!

Looks like I need to check for updates again!

Yeah I think I'm actually paying $5.13 for 91 octane at Chevron, I have the FRP Tune and want full performance on the way to get groceries:)!
