24' here and already did downpipes, exhaust, IC, and have ZFG tuner on the way. I was on the fence and was going to wait a few years. I even purchased the extended warranty. Decided on the IC right off the bat and figured how can they deny warranty providing the engine with safer air intake...

I find it hard I find it hard to believe stock power is destroying the ptu and diff so quickly even on replacements. Something else has to be going on. Driveshaft would be suspect , possibly bent, misaligned, causing damaging vibrations etc.

It is my understanding that the transfer case and differential are not indicated for routine maintenance (fluid changes). Do you suspect the "forever fluid" being as the culprit, quality , or design issue? I plan on changing fluids at 30K intervals like I used to do my subarus.

I know its cheesy but AI created this list of potential causes for high crankcase pressure. Of course if that is what is actually going on here, seems plausible to force oil up and out of the PCV that way, but of course verify. Worn piston rings or cylinder walls: As engine components...

I looked all around and was between goosetuned, zfg, and livernois. Besides now I haven't picked up on any negative vibes from ZFG and seemed there was a good consensus they are a solid outfit. I shied away from goosetuned because I don't like Cobb much and actually threw away my Cobb tuner and...

So after getting the IC, downpipes, and exhaust I had told myself to wait awhile to get a tune installed on my 24' with only 800 miles. Well, apparently I'm super impatient and took a plunge and just ordered a ZFG DMS custom tune. I'm really intrigued with the drive modes switching. I also...

I did wind up using Pro-Dyno in Fort Mill, SC. Very reasonable and did a great job on the install. They had two guys on it and did it all in 4 hours (8 combined of course for pricing). Couldn't be happier with how she came out. Next is to sit on the fence on pulling the trigger on a tune. Just...

Update : Pro-Dyno over in Fort Mill just completed my whipple IC, CVF downpipes, and Thermal exhaust install. Took them about 8 hours , got it done in 4 having two guys on it! Amazing job and very reasonable rate! They said they had to go out and buy a special set of some kind of wierd...

They said they have worked a number of them.

Oh gotcha. May hit you up in the future if I decide on getting more done. Thanks.

Oh dang, well my first mechanic fell through due to delay after delay. Just dropped it off at Pro-Dyno in Fort Mill this morning. They are a Ford performance shop that has worked on the explorer ST before. Can't wait to get her back. BTW what is an "indy" mechanic?

thanks for the tip!

Waxhaw here also. I'm in touch with a mechanic downtown to install my downpipes, thermal exhaust, and whipple IC. been waiting in his queue for a few weeks now, hopefully next week it gets in. I will let you know how it goes as it is my first time using him.

Greetings all. Happy owner of a all black 24 ST. Love it! Coming from a long ownership of subarus from WRX to Forester XT. Currently looking for a shop to install downpipes, exhaust, and IC!

Greetings all, new here. Have sitting in my living room a Thermal R&D catback, CVF downpipes, and a whipple IC. Looking for a shop in Charlotte,NC area to install it. Having a hard time finding anything by calling around besides one "performance shop" that quoted astronomical prices and was...
