Not all today, but in the 3 days of ownership so far:
- Got rid of dealer sticker and front license plate bracket. Bumper Plugs are a perfect color match.
- Install mirror mount and tap for Uniden R3 radar detector.
- Washed, Iron-X and Griot's 3 in 1.
- Swapped factory carpet mats for Smartliners.
- Got rid of FENG with Forscan.

What do you hear now, from the inside? (Assuming yours is fully stock)
Or how does it sound now from the inside? (share an audio clip if possible)
I love the (Artificial) sound now. But once the initial enthusiasm dies out, I might take your route as well.
Looks like there are too many things you can achieve with forscan.
Hope altering these settings wont affect the premium care warranty.

Mine is stock.
It's VERY subjective. While the sound was entertaining, knowing it was fake was a problem for me. I can hear the actual engine now. Although it's MUCH quieter to me it's better. With an exhaust would be even better.
Here's a before/after of an F150. My ST was very similar. He goes through the Forscan procedure as well. I did not have to use the as built module and just used the easy module.
I've also turned off double honk and turned on fogs with high beams. You're right, there are so many changes you can make with Forscan.
I did some Forscan changes on my (traded) Ranger and already had the cable and license, so it was free. I really can't believe Ford hasn't locked it out yet, but I'm grateful to be able to make these tweaks.
It's funny, mine was built in September and I got the 3 bolt diff mount.

I actually hated the fake engine noise and preferred it to be quite as when disabled. Drove it that way for a week before putting my exhaust on. Now with FENG disabled and hearing the natural rumble and throaty roar of the Thermal R&D 3in it sounds the way it shoulda been direct from Ford. Nice and quite when cruising. Loud and proud when you get into it.
