    Considering CAI, any benefit K&N vs. Airaid?

    I want to apologize.... I thought you were talking about an AirAid CAI.. I see you were talking about an Air Raid CSI (community service informational) siren!!!!! We have 6 of those at our lake warning system for bad weather and they definitely add noise!!!! Not sure if it would fit under the...

    Considering CAI, any benefit K&N vs. Airaid?

    So... A N/A engine is not fuel injected??? N/A means Naturally Aspirated which a EB Engine is NOT. A N/A engine can be carburated or fuel injected, but cannot be boosted with turbos, superchargers or any other forced air system. I have 2 G8's and the RotoFab CAI's definitely add 20+ HP by...

    40 HP gain with a conical filter and our EcoBoost engines.....:dribble::dribble: IN YOUR DREAMS!!!!!!! :nut::nut: Please offer proof....:thankyou: My post was realistic... N/A engines benefit more from the less restrictive CAI's because they are not compressing the air, and sucking it...

    Tune Alternatives

    Torrie should have a tune package. He just refers them to "custom tunes" vs SCT which sells their turners for some vehicles with tunes already installed. Just like you did with Livernois, after the tuner arrives, you plug it into the OBDII port and get the Ford strategy code, which you send to...

    Wheel question...

    The 20" Flex wheels are 32 lbs. With tires 63 lbs. I believe Darreli weighed his before buying lighter ones, and his PP wheels/tires were very close to my numbers. From my research, the stock Ford 20"s are about average weight for both tire and wheel. You can get a good idea of wheel weight/...

    Tune Alternatives

    Torrie (Unleashed Tuning) can tune the 2013 EB Flex if SCT has broken the 2013 coding. If you buy his tune package, he can custom calibrate them using SCT logging software. However, you can only use your SCT tuner to switch back and forth between your 2011 and another vehicle a couple...

    Turn signal hard to engage

    Easy Solution... DON'T USE THEM!! If you are going faster than traffic, they are just useless to others! Besides, you are just burning the bulbs out faster... AND... it certainly makes life more exciting!!!!! LOL

    Airaid Intake question...

    Oiled breathes better... Has very infrequently caused codes due to oil *. Paper filters air better. If you drive in dusty areas or on gravel roads, get the paper filter. * I have had K& N oiled filters on vehicles for a total of over 200,000 mi and never had a code due to this issue.

    Considering CAI, any benefit K&N vs. Airaid?

    #1... I think you are talking about Hennessey CAI at $1,200. #2. I have a home made CAI that uses a Round Cone Filter attached to a "J" pipe from Rotofab. My IAT Temps are at or below ambient temp on the hwy, and my system has minimal heat sink, and recovers quickly. #3. I purchased the...

    Considering CAI, any benefit K&N vs. Airaid?

    Best bang for the buck... K & N Drop In Filter. Other CAI's are pretty much "Fluff". They look great, but really don't add HP.

    Need Stock OEM Downpipes w/ Cats

    Why don't you contact 4DRHTRD - He lives in Phoenix area and has PPE Downpipes on his Flex. Flex stock catted downpipes will work on your SHO. However, if Ford knows your car was tuned, I'll bet money that they will refuse to warranty the turbos. Ford & dealer can tell from ECM: #1... How...

    Plastidip

    I sorta like them. Used to hate "killed" vehicles but they are growing on me, as long as they don't have a light bar flashing!!!!

    Go Rhino Push-bar compatability with 2010 Taurus?

    Mike's car used to be black with white, but you know Mike, he can't leave anything alone!!! LOL At least he doesn't post Pix with the light bar that is usually on the SHO! OMG!!!!!!!

    t-stat install

    You will note the temp difference immediately. You can also have your tuner change the fan temp info to benefit the T-stat, but it isn't a big deal in my opinion, unless you are adding other options like Methanol Spray, which will require tuning mods.

    Plastidip

    So... what color was your house before you Plastidip'd it? Looks great but not sure why you didn't do the boxes on the side too.

    PPE Downpipes Installed

    Since my radio blew up yesterday, I have learned to play "Mary Had A Little Lamb" with my turbos!!!

    PPE Downpipes Installed

    I put about 200 mi on today. I can hear the turbos ramp up and down, even at 60 mph! My engine temps are running about 4-5 deg cooler than before. With my low temp T-stat, I now see 181-183 F on level pavement. I also noticed my fuel mileage is up an estimated 1-3 mpg. Only negative so far...

    Ecoboost E85 mix dyno done - pre turbo upgrade

    And... you will likely beat most Corvettes at the strip, unless they are Z06, ZR1 or modified.
