S. Fla - SHO Owner '14 PP Darkside - Chrome Delete

[kryptto]

Hey all long time SHO owner - 2014 with 27K and tuned. Any other SE Florida SHO owners make sure you say hi.

Looking for speed shops in S Fla that do 4 wheel DYNO testing as well.

Welcome! Sick SHO….I got the same setup

 

[BoSHO]

Ditto! Though not the same setup on my 2016 Non-PP. Just bolt-on stuff ... but thinking about hitting Steeda in Pompano re: tuning options for this Gen 3.5 Ecoboost.

Thinking it's the same Gen as what's in the wife's 17 Explorer Sport ... could be wrong.

Anyway, shout out from Broward & Palm Beach ... and if you see me in the street? Holla! I've seen like 5-6 in 4 years.

Not many of us out here ... just how we like it.

BoSHO - Steeda has an AWD Dyno?

BTW - thanks all for the warm welcome. I have a local shop I go to for items I can't fix on a driveway. They have a handful of SHO owners - told me about 10-12. They are out there bar far and few between.

Anytime, Kryptto.

Hmmm ... that's a good question. Though I would suspect that they do since they have ECU tuning options for all-wheel drive Ford Explorer Sport, i.e., they would have an all-wheel drive Dyno to test. Especially since they routinely dyno test tuned Mustangs.

That said, I just went to their website for a quick look and didn't see anything. Didn't look too hard, so maybe I'll give him a call or stop by when I'm in Broward. You got me curious.

Lastly, Apex Automotive does my big stuff, with three locations in Palm Beach County. For wheels and tires and suspension, etc. ... Custom Wheel Connection on North Military Trail in West Palm Beach, or Dale's Wheels and Tires on E. Sunrise in Fort Lauderdale.

Peace! ✌

Same company does my bigger work, so you are the other SHO customer they speak of, HA!

Get out, Bro! Small world. I'll have to ask about you next time I'm @ the Lake Worth shop, maybe even link up with one of these days for a little SHO-talk. And I'll be keeping a look out for you in the streets of South Florida.

Peace! ✌

Exactly what I was thinking.

 

[kryptto]

Bo - spoke with Faithi he said you were in asking about me recently. What new things have you done recently to your sho?

Kryptto ... what's happening! Sorry for latey reply, but yeah, I was in there not long ago. (Nail in my tire.) Next up, thinking your basic ECU upgrade, but if I understood him correctly, he tries to stay away from those upgrades ... which I would probably need some help on. I think he was installing some down pipes that weekend.

 

[kryptto]

Bo - its Jason by the way - Faithi and I did the downpipes - huge improvements. You thinking of upgrading your cars ECU and getting a tune? I am running one - well worth it.

 

[BoSHO]

Music to my ears, Jason. When the time comes I shall hire you as my consultant / installer, if possible.

That said, one of these days we must link up wherever, schedules permitting, of course ... shoot the sh-- for a little while, talk cars, etc. Should be a hoot! 'Specially if we could round-up some more area SHOs.

So, look forward to meeting you, my Brother.

Peace!✌

 

[kryptto]

Same here Bo, I have been doing a bunch of stuff to mine.

We do need to catch up. I don't care if it's BS'ing in a parking lot. I would truly want to get a PB - SHO club.

2014 Ford Taurus SHO PP - Catless Downpipes - 3BAR MAP - Ford Performance Spark Plugs Colder Range - K&N CAD, Reisch 170, HP Tuned, Accel Coil Pack, Chrome Delete - Android Auto Nav System

 

[BoSHO]

Yeah dude, for real about that Palm Beach SHO Club ... because, while it stands to reason there won't be THAT many, there's got to be more than the three or four that I've seen in the last few years locally.

That said, we'll be in touch. Would like to think I'd have some free time on Memorial Day weekend, but we'll see. (Duty calls.) Either way, not moving anytime soon, so I'm confident we'll link up one of these days.

✌Peace!

[kryptto]

Welcome to the group SW? What city? I have heard the Tampa area is good for speed shops and easier to find.

Yours does too - I love the black - why I really liked the "Darkside" its base color is black - with metallic green and blue specs. If you ever need anything - parts info - repair diagrams - tuner - let me know. My tuner is great - as far as I am concerned stock or not - EVERY modern car should get a tune. The manufacturer - is the starting gate - flawed yet functional - tweaked for fuel efficiency - choked down on performance for warranty sake.
