At 12,000 miles Ford had to replace entire throttle body. No reason was given for it going out.

Basically what I did. Had a local shop install an 18" Magnaflow, with piping + labor, $550. I purchased the tips separately, dual slant behind each rear tire. Just installed Roush CAI and it sounds fantastic and exactly what I was looking for!

I've switched to Sport mode, all while staying in 2H. Big difference in throttle response, not sure about handling.

Got all the stats besides the most important one....$$$

KC here....no problems.

Totally agree with engine choices and Fords come a long way with the Eco. Like I stated, I came from the first year Eco and I'm sure they've made a lot of improvements since then. But, with all those improvements, it doesn't change the fact that I smile every time I crank up my V8...to each...

All I did today was Gawk at it!

All I can say I came from a 2011 Ecoboost (first year for that motor) and am thrilled to be back in a V8. The 3.5 is a good engine (even though at roughly 72000 miles had to replace timing chain at $2500) and am sure they made improvements over the years but, my main concern was "ALWAYS" the...

Will let those interested, know how well or not Dura-Coating works. Again not looking for Shiney tires, but something a little more satin looking.

Used bleach white once, wasn't impressed...maybe I didn't use correctly, as my tires still had that brown crap on them(from what I've gathered the brown crap is part of the mold release when tires are manufactured and continues to seep out of the rubbers pores). Will try again along with brush...

The best I've used in the past for white letters on tires was billo pads with the blue soap! Don't run white letters anymore so haven't used in quite awhile.

Has anyone heard of or used Dura-coating tire dressing? Everything I seen or read says this is one of the best options out there for tires. Once applied, will last 3-6 months depending on driving conditions. Not a fan of the "Shiney Look" but do like the satin look on my tires...

Ordered the Roush. Really wanted the S and B. When I spoke with them, explaining Roush was just capping one of the inlets (also supplying the cap) on their 15-20 CAI, they said they couldn't reccomend the same for theirs, so I ordered the Roush. They also asked me if I were in their area...

Looks good and thought about the same, or something close, concerning the roof. Amazing how the Lead Foot color looks completely different in direct sunlight vs. none.
