    Water to air intercooler

    Stock, varimax, and finally a reprogrammed Stewart EMD. Don’t remember the flow rate but it was huge, biggest available at the time that fit. Blew off fittings when I was initially testing and emptied the system in about 10 seconds[emoji23]. Definitely helped initial iats and the ramp rate to...

    Removal of 3rd seat row

    I also removed my third row seats. Put amps in tire well and built a box with a lockable lifttop. I’ve got about 10 inches of height under the platform for tons of lockable storage. Easy to get into with portable tools but if you open the lift gate looks like a solid platform as you can’t see a...

    Water to air intercooler

    I had water cooled in my supercharged CTSV that I road raced. Heat soak was a big problem even with a much bigger intercooler, bigger tank, and much larger pump. Never had any type of failure hardware-wise but I could easily boil the coolant out of the intercooler loop. Actually have a great on...

    No turbo Boost after visit to dealer

    If you are having codes and computer problem , I wouldn’t be surprised if the computer cuts off boost to limit possible damage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Why do I want to sell my 22 ST 21”OEM wheels, and tires

    Only reason I can think of is for a set of winter wheels and tires. If no snow then no reason imo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Blown Transmission

    I think the warranty labor rate from Ford is a fixed price and is lower than typical shop rates. They can always find shortcuts to make money on the labor if their mechanics are any good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Intake system

    As mentioned, you might get a slight bump but unlikely you would notice. With a tune you might get 10-15hp tops out of the intake. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    A New Sync Issue

    https://www.ford.com/support/how-tos/sync/sync-updates/how-do-i-install-sync-updates-using-a-usb-or-wi-fi/ USB seems to be more reliable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    A New Sync Issue

    That’s a known bad software version with lots of problems. Many have updated to the current version and it has cleared up their issues. For some it required a hardware replacement. I would update manually (usb) and see if that improves things before I even visited a dealer. Sent from my...

    Replacing Front Rotors and Pads.

    I have never even heard of needing maintenance mode for front brakes on any normal automobile. Unless you put it into maintenance mode there is no way it gets there by itself. I just did big brakes and needed nothing software wise for the front. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Transmission Fluid Change - Should I or wait?

    Makes car life a lot easier for sure. I got tired of working on my back in the driveway as a youngster so I bought a tool company later in life[emoji23]. Good thing too, the older I get the harder it is to crawl around. Heck my hands are sore for two days sometimes after a day of playing...

    Transmission Fluid Change - Should I or wait?

    Technically you dump half of what you put in yes but it mixes with the old fluid. You change 50% then drive around and do another change of 50% gets you almost 70% fluid change. Yes a transfer service gets near 100%. For those of us that maintain our own vehicles and don’t like needlessly...

    New ST owner / first turbo'd vehicle

    Congrats and enjoy! Intercooler and exhaust to suit your ear. I like the thermal. Lowering springs if you like the look. Wheels, sway bar, end links, subframe bushing kit, etc. the list can be long if you like. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Transmission Fluid Change - Should I or wait?

    Or do a double drain fill after driving around a bit in between if you like doing it yourself. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
