    FS FS: Thermal 3” exhaust

    Do you think both could have fit near the thermal resonator? Any issues with the resonators not being symmetrically in the same location on the driver and passenger side?

    Do you remember what length resonator you were able to fit? I think this section of the thermal has a clamp there.

    Did the Lincoln screen swap

    That looks pretty good, do you have a link to the part? Which Carlinkit did you order?

    Carroll Shelby CS10 (20x9.5, 37mm offset)

    This is the only one I currently have: I'm glad I got them when I did at $259. I just checked and they are $465 now.

    New fueling option for the Explorer - Port Injection

    Pros: This will keep your intake valves clean, can probably make more power than upgrading the HPFP and DI injectors Cons: You are adding a somewhat complex fuel system, the fuel controller has to be tuned for separately, there is a risk since many components of this system could potentially...

    CPE Catted Downpipes with cast bellmouths?

    I think my tuner has these for his wife's Explorer, but sitting in his garage. He'll probably put out a video once it's installed.

    Resonator Advice Please

    This is exactly what I want to do. Did you do it yourself, or did a shop do it? The only issue I have is that I have these downpipes, and I'm not sure how I could remove the heatshielding on my own:

    Resonator Advice Please

    Are those custom midpipes, or the ones from Thermal?

    Resonator Advice Please

    You have a Thermal 2.5", right? How much difference did the bottle style resonator make?

    Resonator Advice Please

    I would love to be able to do the install myself. I think I'd just have to peel back the heat shield, mark where to cut on both the DP and the midpipe, and use butt joints. Part of me would prefer to have a shop do it, but I feel the cost will be pretty high, maybe 600+.

    Resonator Advice Please

    Ultra Quiets will be the most effective at reducing the volume and taking out some of the harsh frequencies. However, it looks like you may need to cut some of the DP and some of the midpipe to make it fit. In another thread, I saw someone install the non-ultra quiet version of the resonators...

    Very nice! Did you go with the Vibrant 3" diameter that is 12" long? That would be 1794. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/vpe-1794 Do you have any sound clips? Is it quieter in the cabin now?

    When to do mods? New ST.

    Do you have a pic of the resonators?

    When to do mods? New ST.

    I have a 3" Thermal and DPs, I'm finding it too loud now. Anything more than very light throttle is pretty loud. When you're cruising it's pretty quiet since you're not giving much throttle.

    Carroll Shelby CS10 (20x9.5, 37mm offset)

    I think the springs are more settled now. I also did the PIU rear sway bar and got an alignment. I am very happy with how the car drives now. It stays flat and planted on high speed turns, not as much body roll.

    Last pic, after a fresh wash.

    Carroll Shelby CS10 (20x9.5, 37mm offset)

    The car is lowered on Eibach springs and PIU struts/shocks as of last night. I'm guessing it will settle a little more.

    Eibachs + PIU struts/shocks

    What is the torque spec for the nut on top of the strut? I just did PIU struts. I don't have a 21mm pass through socket, I'll need to pick one up in the morning so I can finish the job.

    Strange noises when turning left and rapidly stopping

    I've had a noise when coming rapidly to a stop for a while. It kinda sounds creaky, it's a few quick jolts of sound as I'm coming to a complete stop. Just recently I started experiencing a new noise when turning left at certain speeds, usually over 25mph. I have to be turning at a certain...

    Thermal 3” rattle

    My hangers are reversed from the video. I've noticed that the noise doesn't show up until I've been driving for a while. Maybe some thermal expansion element to it?
