    Best tune for 2020+ Ford Explorer ST

    Every single time you modified the ECU, the key cycle goes back to 0, so yes, theyll see something is off. If they dig deep as well, they'll see the parameters were different. I mean in all honestly, why go thru all that just to have 3 years or less of warranty? The powertrain warranty will end...

    Best tune for 2020+ Ford Explorer ST

    Its always been like that.... See the magnuson act. Any mods you make that leads to a failure will not be covered under warranty for that specific area. It will not void your whole warranty, only whatever was affected from the mod

    Best tune for 2020+ Ford Explorer ST

    I take it OP has been living under a rock? This has been a thing for the past 30? Years lol Tuning a car would void warranty if it was responsible for the damage..... Also, after your original warranty is up with the FP, guess what, it will be no different than any other tuned car. If you buy...

    ZFG Racing DMS Custom Tunes!!!

    Unfortunately, the tuning is his side gig and usually absent around holiday's (labor day is around the corner). Not speaking for him, just speaking for people having similar stories during holiday's with him. Regarding 5 star, the transmission tune with them would make you have buyer's remorse...

    Ford Performance Tune

    The only big issue with the ST's is the transmission, even in stock form. Having a tune making ton more power with a better transmission tune and shifts is better for the drivetrain vs slight power or stock with no transmission updates. Not saying it will be an issue with the FR tune but havent...

    Ford Performance Tune

    My point is there are much better tunes for similar $$ that add more than power and improve the jerky tranny shifts As I stated, its a plus for those retaining the original 36 month warranty, but for those wanting a faster vehicle outside of that warranty, IMO, its best spent elsewhere on a...

    Ford Performance Tune

    So spending $800+ on a tune to run 1-2 MPH faster in the quarter mile is a win? lol I mean its a plus for those wanting to retain the original warranty but not for those nearing or past it.

    Gas mileage

    Gas mileage

    They actually have it as 21.8 Whats interesting, that was the original number when the 2020 Explorer's were released only to change it to 20.2 which matched the 2021/22 Explorer's, so a bit weird. There's about 1/3 of a gallon left on the fuel line's, pump, etc. Still wouldnt recommend to let...

    Time For Upgrades

    Intercooler wont necessarily make you more power but itll keep the power consistent on many back to back runs, higher RPM's, and/or during hot days, no more heat soak. You can however get a more aggressive tune and make more power with a bigger intercooler. Far as intake, thats varies on each...

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    Apple would never allow it with their closed ecosystem, they would ask to take full ownership of Ford's electronic system's. Even then, cant even pinch to zoom on maps with Apple Car Play lol Gm is already trying to drop Carplay on future EV cars

    Would you upgrade to LCI 2024 ST or go with something else?

    I'll also take the X5! That B58 is a very strong and reliable engine and gets better MPG vs EB 3.0TT on top of being faster.

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    To be fair, almost every other System UI is better than Ford's Sync and has been for years. Ford has been behind for a while so moving to Google has been their best decision to finally have a decent UI.

    Ford dealer over filled my engine

    I've seen you or someone post this before, great info! However, what if there's hard launches once in a blue moon and mainly just spirited driving or regular driving? Would it be a big issue? I know there are some cars that have been able to hold close to 1qt more due to the size of the oil pan.

    2024 FORD EXPLORER TIMBERLINE WILL USE 2023 FRONT END

    If it keeps the new changes from the 24+ Explorer's, IMO it's actually great news. The new front end is hideous Now if only the Timerberline had the 3.0TT engine......

    Ford Explorer ST Recall 23S23 360 Degree Camera Stop Sale

    It still blows my mind why someone would want to jump ship from a 2020 thats trouble free, has every feature over one that's missing stuff, more expensive and same exact gen/style. If warranty is the reason, you can buy an extended warranty and it'll be cheaper than starting all over with less...

    Ford Performance Tune

    As always, putting wrong information out there. He has me and a ton of others on ignore since he doesnt like being wrong lol For the new people, you CAN purchase and install it for 2020-2021 Explorer's In California. 22+ are the only ones out of luck, for now?

    Should send him another e-mail. Adam can get overwhelmed at times, this is his side gig as well. He's usually pretty good though so this isnt the norm.
