ZFG allows for a more custom tune and has great data logging. The LMS is what is called a “canned” tune, meaning you get a standard tune that can’t be revised. LMS’s data logging capability leaves a bit to be desired, but many people don’t give a crap about viewing the data. This is why I...

I went with ZFG because I wanted to run e50. LMS has an e30 tune, but I wanted a bit more, Also, bigger turbos are in the plan. the LMS is perfect if you want an easy to flash tune to go along with stock setup or bolt-ons.

there is a tranny dip stick. Get under the driver side and it’s on to of the tranny behind the cooler. the tranny leak is due to a lack of support causing excessive vibration and cracking on connections.

I will say this, I don’t believe OP was driving this “easy” as he stated. From what I see, and the dealer will see, is he states it is “stock” yet it clearly has an exhaust. He didn’t mention that in the original thread (that he deleted) until he was called out. Then he goes out of his way to...

It's called the "Draggy Throw". Step 1: Roll down driver window Step 2: Hold draggy in hand Step 3: Accelerate Step 4: At appx 50mph throw the Draggy forward as hard as you can and hope it logs before it breaks. this is the ONLY proven method of getting mid-3’s on a 93 tune. Ok, maybe not...

Good news they are shipping them! Wish the communication was a little better. If I don't see the ship notification today then I'll contact Thermal / Whoosh again.

@Bkusk12 they haven't shipped yet, so no installs.

Anyone get the shipping notification from Thermal yet? I haven’t. I talked to Thermal last week and they said the tips were out to powder coat and the exhausts would ship this week.

Thermal does not make downpipes, only the mid-pipe (part with flex sections), and mid-pipe back portion. Only ST downpipes are Fenfab and SPD. I have the Fenfab DPs and I highly recommend them. Thermal is a very good and reputable brand. Fit, finish, and quality are great.

I have the UPR drain valve, but looking back I should have bought a vacuum extractor like Cdubya said. The UPR drain valve is sweet, just remove the lower splash shield, connect 1/2" ID hose, then rotate the valve. Very clean.

if you scroll down on this page you will see about a dozen "similar threads" and many have "SCT" in the subject line.

Can't go off what the FB pages or Forum posts state. 99.9% of the people that have great STs don't post "hey, my ST is great!". People that complain do it online. There are "bad apples" in every vehicle line. BMW, Merc, Audi, GM, Toyota......it happens. Work with your dealer, or a...

Stopped by a tint shop to book an appt today, and as luck would have it the lady said they just had someone cancel last minute. They got me in right away! This is a very reputable shop that had a M8 Comp, Bentley, 2 C8s, and some other high end cars in there. Ceramic all around, 15% front and...

No, that is coolant

Did a 1/4mi run this AM. So close to 11s, she’ll get there. 60F, 100% humidity, 1200’ DA. That 116mph trap is impressive.

Shit, another one? Sorry man, thins is definitely a problem Ford will need to address ASAP. Not only did they switch to a one-bolt design mid-2021 but clearly that bolt doesn’t have the shear strength needed for this application. My college Material Science professor loves to analyze this...

agreed....I'll just keep waiting for my Thermal to ship. I prefer quiet-ish and no drone. Talked to them a few days ago, they said the tips are out to powder coat and should be back by end of next week (15 Oct), then shipping after that. I'll be happy if it's here before Christmas, but...

I hope it works out for you. The ST is an amazing car, especially for the money. $55k-60k doesn't get you as much today as it did 5 years ago! The leaking transmission is really an easy fix. I would honestly give Ford a chance on the engine. Find out what they are including in the "rebuild"...

bobistheoilguy.com for a used oil analysis. I'm no lawyer, but I'm not sure if the Lemon Law is applicable in your case or not. Different states have different laws, but the Manufacturer typically has XX number of attempts and/or XX number of days to fix a given problem. An engine rebuild...

That's the plan....but as Mike Tyson said "everyone has a plan until I punch them in the mouth". I'm planning on going to the actual drag strip next Fri, 15 Oct.
