The "regulars". Exactly why I never hit the bed until at least 2 am ...

Internet cowards who diss our brave First Responders. TRUTH!

put your man pants on everyone, things are about to get real ... The best tune for any NEW vehicle is the one that DOESN'T do this: https://www.carscoops.com/2023/05/after-challenger-warranty-denial-dodge-confirms-pcm-reflash-leaves-permanent-mark-even-if-you-reverse-the-mods/ You want to...

Sorry you're not getting any help, but there's an underlying bias by a tiny minority on this forum who nonsensically oppose the FP tune. Questions regarding what happens if you run Reg fuel on the FP tune is best left to the one's who actually developed the tune (see below) and not anyone here...

I've never seen anyone so dismissive about an SUV's warranty backed 13.1... supposed enthusiast for the win :rolleyes:

This guy is hilarious! We First Responders get exactly what he's saying. Here's just a few to wet your appetite ...

Wonder if his driveway has a starting light tree? Lol

Don't forget this thread is about vehicles that still maintain their factory warranty. 3rd party tunes fall outside of that norm.

In case people didn't see this on the Ford Performance Tune thread, here's my Dragy run (FP Tune/AWR Brace only, nothing else). Where else are you going to get an SUV with a factory warranty that's almost in the 12's for $50-$60k? Nowhere!

I will not direct a menacing eye at your post R2! :) But I will also refute/expose those who persist in making radically uninformed comments as I do not want them infecting our forum with their errors. And if those same people continue to reject facts and refuse to correct their bad behavior...

Okay, time for an update ... Now including my ST's acceleration results with the Ford Performance Tune to this list of VEHICLES WITH A WARRANTY. As expected, the ST jumps ahead even further! Ford Explorer ST Base Price: $50,700 ($50,000 ST + $700 FP tune) 430 hp 3.0L V6 0-60 mph: 4.7 sec...

Waiting for logical informed comments on FP's awesome warranty backed tune ... Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Anyone?

And the (n) from the uneducated continue. But the intelligent (y) have the majority! Thank goodness for the "ignored members" option, no more wasted time reading worthless rants. haha

Great to see a (y) for the Ford Performance Tune results! Laughable to see a (n) because Ford Performance took them to the shed. :LOL:

Okay everyone, finally got a chance to do a full quarter run on the Dragy ... I have the FP tune and AWR brace, that's it. Running a quarter tank of 93 octane with 40 lbs of equipment in the vehicle and power braking. Did the quarter in 13.15 @ 102.79 mph, 0-60 mph in 4.76 seconds. To say I'm...

If your concerned about trying to maintain your 3/36 warranty, the Ford Performance tune should be your #1 and only priority. Then add the AWR diff brace (black color is more discreet/OEM looking). I think most dealers won't care about the install of a simple brace with a few bolts on it.

If you can't feel the 1/2 sec improvement in acceleration that I documented (Dragy in warm/humid weather no less) then you need to reassess your skills. Don't buy into that post. The second I drove away from the dealer after I had the FP tune installed I noticed an immediate difference. Pulls...

If you're talking about the super loud "snap-crackle-and-pop cars", my car club (both young & old) have sharp criticisms every time one of them does a fly by. Lol

So if one were looking to buy new or used, replacing the subframe shouldn't be a consideration. Just get the Explorer ST of your choice and spend a few hundred bucks on a diff support if they have the 3 bolt. For owners to personally replace the subframe with a 4 bolt is more than...

The overwhleming majority of ST owners will never spend the time and $$ to replace whole subframes, and Ford knows it. Ford also knows 3 bolt ST's are still going to roll off dealer lots with people lining up to buy one regardless of how much others whine about it. Owners should get a brace if...
