My Small Suspension and Performance Updates

[JRHII]

Okay, I'm not a significant modifier of my 2024 ST, but I have done a couple of things that I'm loving and wanted to share. Here is the list of what I have done:

• I have a Stock Explorer ST tune upgrade from GOOSETuned .... Fantastic ... Love that in Sport mode you see the gear you are in ... not just a big "D"
• I installed an aFE rear sway bar I purchased from aFE ... reduced body roll in turns - very nice.
• I installed the Ford Interceptor rear Shocks I purchased from Houston Speed Freaks, and it even reduced body roll more ... I like stiff suspensions, and this is not harsh at all.
• I also did the daytime switch to amber DRL',s as I do not like the white ones.
• I am considering the CVFAB catted-downpipe, but I'm a little nervous as I think these engines don't produce a very good sound. I am a V8 person at heart, see my member picture.

I wanted to add that Goosetuned (https://www.goosetuned.com) and Houston Speed Freaks (HoustonSpeedFreaks – Houston Speed Freaks) are great to work with, and I would highly recommend them.

I wouldn't say they sound bad, but the downpipes should definitely help. Here's mine with CVF DP's and Thermal 2.5" exhaust.

I get it, but here is what I am used to --

As long as you still have stock exhaust, cv-fab downpipes will barely make a sound difference.

I watched a video earlier on when it takes to replace them ... sounds like it may not be worth the effort

There are some pretty good gains with them, but they are a pain to install yourself. I got quotes $500 or so to install them around my overpriced labor area.
