    Those Who Have Upgraded Turbos!

    Hi All, Just trying to get a feel for installation pricing, time and technique. The one performance shop I contacted told me they would have to drop the subframe and engine to get to the turbos. Quoted a price just south of $2800. I already had an ST owner tell me he paid only $500 for his...

    Window Oddity

    It has occurred a few times that when I put the passenger side window up, it would automatically go back down about half way. Is this an anomaly or a feature?

    Downpipes

    Ok, I was going for the CVF DPs, catted, 304SS and mandrel bent. The SPD DPs show pretty much the same specs but incorporate the flex pipes and extensions to the crossover section. The DPs is all I need and the CVFs are priced at $800 cheaper. Although the SPDs claim to subdue the vibration that...

    Turbos

    Hi All, CR P Stage 5 or Pure Turbo 650? HP capabilities, installation, spool-up etc. CR P is plug and play using the same housing. Not sure about Pure.

    Installation Question

    Hi All, I heard it mentioned that an exhaust shop is probably the best place to get down pipes installed. Would that also be the best time to get turbos installed or should I leave that to a performance shop? I figured the turbos are in the same vicinity so it may save installation expenses...

    Wiring

    Hi All, Has anyone done a seamless wiring from inside the rear roof to the rear hatch? I'm trying to wire in the rear dash cam that's installed on the hatch window. The only clean way I can see that won't interrupt the seal is to use the same channel as the wiring in the rubber boot that's...

    CVF Intercooler Install

    Hi All, To those who've had experience installing this IC, what exactly did you have to modify to make this work? Mechanic is saying that they have to mod the hose work and remove the radiator to install it. The CVF website says it's supposed to be a drop-in with no mods needed. Your thoughts...

    IC Cold Side Pipe

    Hi All, Is it complicated installing this pipe after an IC upgrade or is it more practical to do it while installing the IC? Thanks.

    Mishap

    Hi All, Had a little mishap yesterday and put a scratch on the left front wheel well. I went to a body shop just to get an estimate for repair. Can't believe how much this small scratch involves in getting it professionally fixed. I'm looking at $1100. Does this sound right? They need to replace...

    Rattling

    Hey All, I just developed a rattle from the flimsy plastic driver's seat border at the bottom where the seat adjustment controls are. Any experience with that and/or any fixes? Thanks!

    Key Fob

    Hey All, I'm curious as to the range of the key fob. Not just in how far the ST will respond to your commands but how far away do you have to be wherein anyone could walk up and trigger the touch door locks? There are times when I'm working in a building but only 10-20 ft away from the vehicle...

    Transmission Flush & Fill

    Was looking around to get some prices on a flush. I found a performance shop that works on the ST platform. They're charging $285 for Mercon ULV and $435 for labor. It doesn't seem many places will work on this platform. A few places even turned me down just to check the level. I went to the...

    OEM Cat

    Hi All, I had an exhaust shop inspect the exhaust because I could hear a leak. He said it was a cracked pipe that was part of the left cat. He also said that emissions on these STs have an 8 year warranty and Ford would replace it for free. Is that your experience with these? I thought the...

    What's This Noise?

    Hi All, As of recent, the ST has developed a whistling sound. I don't think it's turbo related because it happens below boost rpm. It seems to come up when I'm cruising around 35-40mph and tac-ing between 1100-1300rpm. It gets a little louder with load but seems to be the only place it...

    Cruise Control

    Hey All, I was cruising tonight and all of the sudden the CC cancelled. Nothing obvious happened, just riding on a smooth hwy, minimal traffic, no speed limit changes, no lane assist. Any ideas?

    Displays

    Hi All, Did a search first and came up with zilch but I heard there's been discussion about changing from portrait to landscape style with the display. Anyone see info on this and/or can guide me in that direction? Thanks!

    Another Tune Question

    Hi All, Has anyone here experienced an SSi Tune?

    Seatbelt Alert

    Hey All, Do I have to put a seatbelt around any packages of weight on the passenger seat or is there a way to tell the computer there's no passenger? The alert gets pretty incessant after a while. Thanks!

    Auto Stop/Start

    Hi All, I actually appreciate this feature if it does indeed save fuel but there's one instance where it's unwarranted. After doing a hard pull, I came up to a light and the first thing it did was shut down which is a no no after high boost. These turbos are supposed to cool down after peaking...
