On the sticker in the driver's door jamb. Under Axle.

OK, I get my destination. I’m gonna check… I know I have the 339 gear ratio. My AI told me that and I have the 20 inch wheels but I think you can option those. You would know better than me, I’ve only had the car for four weeks. Is this below correct?

For the 2015 Ford Taurus SHO:
• 1A → 3.39 final drive ratio, AWD
• BB → 3.16 final drive ratio, AWD

Also, what does your steering wheel look like and do you have adaptive cruise control?

Texas Marauder is a reliable source.

Picture of center console button array is missing traction control on/off button. Dead give away for a non-pp SHO.

What year did you say your car was? Your screen looks like it's still running Sync2.

You also showed us your car as black. Why is the jamb red?

Never mind. I spazzed and didn't see who posted the image. Sorry.

No worries at all Majestic.

I would like the original poster to know I am not trying to be a d I c k head and tear your car down.
Its an SHO, it's awesome by definition. Just trying to properly identify your car.

The only possible options for the SHO are 1A and 2A. The other codes are for other Taurus models. I believe the A is for AWD but, it is not specified anywhere that I can find.

You are correct. 1a is what I have. Although it seems pretty damn fast and I put the larger size rotors on it because I thought it was a pp. That seems odd. But thanks for helping me clear that up.

The PP was never much faster, if any, and is actually slower when tuned. The rotors are the same on both PP and regular SHO.

Ordered the programmer colder plugs 3 bar map sensor and 170 t stat w AO tune. I received everything. Not in waiting for the tune. How long does that take?
I also just had to replace my sway bar end links. One was disconnected and the other bent. Drives much better through corners now.
