What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

[Liver]

Installed a CVFab Intercooler Sunday morning. Didn’t stop to take any pics. Install was pretty straight forward and easy.

Seems to pull a little harder in the upper rpm range. Definitely want to get tuned so I can take full advantage of the IC but overall really happy with it so far.

@tjmath13 congrats! here's the million question, which tuner are you going with and if any particular reason?

 

[tjmath13]

I’m leaning toward ZFG personally. I like the things I’ve read about them. Not just with their ST tuning but their entire ecoboost platform in general.

ETSY is your friend

Good people, good company. I’ve been putting them in my vehicles for years.

Hmmmm. How many times have I said that.

“Gonna be it” are words that my brain won’t recognize.

Of course the downpipes get installed and immediately throw a CEL for the cats.

Anyone else have the same issue?

Gonna need defoulers

So I guess I wasn't done after all. Got a link to some defoulers? Thanks for the quick response.

I would contact Ron at Whoosh. He’s super responsive.

Emblem overlays I'm good with the (Ford) front and back but the (ST) the sticker was a hair or two longer than needed and threw it off. I'll try a different vendor unless the current provider cannot adjust.

C-Pillar wrapped today - I added this to the (Like it but not in Love) posting.
Still debating let's see where I end up.

I posed that question about the defoulers that come with the pipes and Ron responded with this:

"you should not need the tuneable defoulers for our downpipes
"if" you do get a light over time, install the defoulers using the middle sized spacer inside the defoulers
the spring clip is used to hold the insert in place"

Go back to the person who wrapped the pillar and get a small strip above the back windows to get rid of that transition from pillar to window.

thank you @BooSTedExplorer21 - I didn't even notice (OMG) what a miss on my part. I will reach back out to them on Monday (they're closed on weekends). thank you for the feedback

It's complete overkill with the LED bulbs in the factory housing

I bouhave the diode dynamics

You get the trailer attached warning every time you start the car?

Ive got a 2020 and purchased the fancy hitch with the reverse/brake light/strobe feature. It throws errors for trailer connected/disconnected and turn signals not working…whenever I hit the brake or use the turn signal.

I contacted their service and they sent me a temporary harness (for the $100 setup) which only does reverse and running light.

They're working on an updated harness for the brake/strobe feature since the newer Ford harnesses are “funky”. It’s complete, but they’re working on getting the plugs to finish it up.

So, I spent the money on the fancier one…to get the not fancy one.…until the replacement is sent. must say Diode Dynamics customer service is phenomenal.
