My miata has one, figuring how to put one on this.

Ask your tuner. Report back with what he says

Check the resistance across the boost solenoid, its just a 2 pin plug. If you unplug it, it will go into a limp mode but a resistor will make it not and they make one for 3.5l ecoboost. Either that or leave it plugged in like my rear bov as the resistor wasnt quite working right. Just an idea, maybe a dumb one because i dont know how efficient the electronic one is. Also wondering what kind of mpg it would get if its kept out of the boost for cruising but setting it real low. Not all about who can hit the pedal the soonest

You'd have to completely disable torque management, rescale the entire map system to be adaptive and find a way for the pcm to be reactive to variable boost. The engine management system for the Ecoboost is a lot different than the standard mill pcm.

Never, ever, listen to anything this guy has to say.

Lee, were you are able to make the plastic backing piece work with your grill?

I'll be doing this next week with a a front mount intercooler (assuming all my parts are here). I was going to stencil in "SHO" potentially.

Yes with some trimming I got everything to go back onto the bumper.

I figured I could. I just didn't.

Washed it yesterday..... Only to watch it get rained on today.

 

[jman1200]

Yeah, I've found that I can make it rain... all I have to do is wash my car.

The sidewalls are a bit much for my tastes, but at the same time that looks sinister! Nice!

Same here! I swear it's the curse of owning a black car.

 

[SM105K]

I just don't wash my black car anymore....lol.

Came out from the gym last night to find that my passenger side puddle lamp is out AGAIN...

gonna pull it tonight to see if it just came unplugged or what. the halogens went out about 6 months ago and last month I replaced them with LEDs, so if it's plugged in I'll be getting some warranty bulbs...

I embarrassed what appeared to be a 03-04 Cobra last night. He had about a 3/4 car jump and never let off. I quickly caught up and let off shortly after my back bumper passed his front.

My weekend consisted of switching to HPTuners for some R&D development with Ortiz Performance, replacing my windshield washer pump, changing my oil, and painting/installing my new grille. I was hoping to get a PTU flush in this weekend, but it didn't happen. Hopefully next weekend will be doing the brake swap finally.

Damn it LEE. Now I have to remove the front clip again and reinstall the plastic insert after blowing up your picture......grr.

bahahaha

After I got mine all back together I went to the grocery store and coming out realized that I didn't hook up the parking lights. I had the cross traffic monitors hooked up but no LED strip... luckily I can access it through the wheel well.
