    Spacer width

    because then you need to cut your studs. if you want to square up the stance, then do 1.25" front, 1.5" back

    "lost" 3rd gear while data logging

    did you turn traction control off for your runs?

    The new look !

    As the owner of a few pairs of forged 2-piece wheels that I daily on fairly crappy roads (pretty sure DC will give NYC a run for its money), how do you propose they leak? The forged barrel is fastened to a forged center via hardware instead of it being a solid billet but the barrel is the...

    Because all of us are tuned by ZFG and he fixed it… lol

    UNBROKEN’s Iconic Silver ST build

    You might have posted in the wrong thread (maybe you were looking for the ZFG thread?), but its no big deal. This means that the tuner "locked" the file to a specific RTD/MPIV2 device and yours cant read the file. That is why he asked for your S/N. Probably just made a mistake typing it in. He...

    TPMS Fault

    Is there a procedure out there for pairing/re-learning a set of TPMS sensors? YouTube leads to a couple for other Fords, but neither work on this vehicle. I have now tried 2!!! different sensors and I'm still getting a TPMS fault. Unmounting/re-mounting tires is getting to be a PITA. I followed...

    ZFG: I guess I'm a fanboy now too

    Sorry to hear this. Also sorry that your Ford dealer couldn't get you sorted. My rear end has two bolts and its so freaking odd they couldn't figure that out for you. Adding VIN #s is easy peasy to RTD devices. I've shared RTDs with friends in the past when we were all being cheapskates about...

    JROS (Jury-Rigged O'Reilly Special) Resonator Delete

    I'm not sure about TMac's percentages but like I mentioned, we have to reduce our "every engine setup in the world" to the Venn diagram of: two banks, naturally aspirated, and true dual exhaust (not single muffler, dual tip) for us to discuss this topic and that class of cars (especially modern...

    JROS (Jury-Rigged O'Reilly Special) Resonator Delete

    Expanding upon what TMac said, there is no need for an X or H pipe after a turbocharger. There are no typical exhaust pulses after the turbo (as opposed to a naturally aspirated engine), so there are no benefits from scavenging, balancing, etc. After the turbo, the exhaust's work is done. Get it...

    Dirty Dan Build

    I'm thinking you should push this "blue" theme even further. A re-powdercoat of your calipers would look pretty sharp against the gray. then get the decals to swap your ST badge to blue as well. Another forum member had a black ST and chose yellow as their accent. The yellow calipers looked amazing.

    JROS (Jury-Rigged O'Reilly Special) Resonator Delete

    I started to type up a really long-winded response to that post and then just gave up. If people didn't learn anything in the "all engines need some level of exhaust backpressure" thread, then there isn't hope here either. There are just too many old habits/wives tales out there to try and...

    VCM Scanner for ZFG data logging

    go here HP Tuners | ZFG RACING LLC (tunedbyzfgracing.com) and download his tuning guide. it explains everything. you will use VCM scanner to run your logs. you open VCM scanner, then import the channels file he sent you. That will record the specific channels he wants to see for his log.

    ZFG: I guess I'm a fanboy now too

    and he wasn't "out of stock". he was getting his ducks in a row and CARB certified so the EPA and California Air Resources Board wouldn't sue him. to me that shows a level of professionalism that MANY tuners do not possess. like @UNBROKEN said, there is a reason there is a waitlist. its worth it.

    ZFG: I guess I'm a fanboy now too

    That its literally exactly as you describe what you want? Its chill and smooth shifting in Eco/Normal but snarly and nasty with crazy fast shifts in Sport mode. His transmission tuning is literally the best on the market--better than OEM. He makes 3 levels of tuning (daily driver, performance...

    ZFG: I guess I'm a fanboy now too

    You can theoretically load up to 1000 vehicles onto a single RTD or MPVI2 device. Again, the ONLY difference is access to VCM editor. I have three different vehicles loaded onto my RTD. You just need to purchase enough universal credits to accomodate each specific tune you are looking for. When...

    ZFG: I guess I'm a fanboy now too

    hardware-wise they are identical. the only difference is that an RTD device can't access VCM editor. if you are only going to be loading remote tunes the RTD is perfect (Remote Tuning Device, get it?). if you want to use VCM editor to make your own maps you will need the MPVI2. if you order a...

    21" Black Explorer ST wheels 4-Sale

    yup. Been away on vacation all summer so haven’t had the chance to put em up for sale. Still taking up space in my garage.

    Post your favorite pic...it’s a show off thread.

    How are the Toyos treating you? You seem to have been running them for a bit now. I'm thinking the cost premium for Pirellis might not be worth it.
