Tuning

[Antivenom]

I have a 2011 sho I'm assuming it's a non pp. I was wondering who has the best tune? I've heard a lot of people talking about livernois but I've read some people praising unleashed. Also was wondering if the dealer would know about the tune if I returned it to stock prior to service? Also do the lowering springs make a big difference in handling and is there more that can be done for those front wheels to bite in the corners? Only found springs. Thanx.

Black grill = PP

On edit: the PP has a slightly smaller front sway-bar to help in corners.

I never seen a black grill on a 2011

Woops... maybe that's a 2013 thing. Sorry.

Unleashed or Livernois are going to be the two most recommended. Which one is best is like arguing Ford vs Chevy, Mac vs PC, etc. They are so close that there's no clear undisputed better company.

You'll never really get the front tires to bite on this car. It's a 4,400 lbs vehicle and during aggressive cornering it's going to understeer. Additionally, look at the location of the engine in relation to the front wheels, nearly the whole engine is in front of the wheels and that's terrible for handling. This is just the nature of driving a land yacht. It can be fun to drive around corners, but it will never bit and turn like other vehicles that were designed for that driving.

The big difference between Livernois and Unleashed is Livernois tunes are more upload and forget, whereas Unleashed will have you datalog and revise to dial it in.

Go with an SCT tuner that way your not limited unleashed is pretty awesome ive been tuned by all 3 now Livernoise Unleashed and now am currently working with BrewCityBoost. Unleashed is more dialed in to each car because one SIZE does not fit all!!

I wish the PP came with a black grill that would save me a lot of money to try and do something to make this one look cool. As far as figuring out if you have a PP car a quick Google search will give you several ways to tell BUT IMHO the best way is to order a copy of your window sticker from Ford, You can also get a cool SHO certificate. It is a big car and will never handle like a Mustang but its a whole other animal. I love this car. love driving this car. Its comfortable and reminds me of the old school Ford horsepower wars cars, Galaxies, Fairlanes. etc. There are some coil overs if you want that much adjustment but springs really are about it. Anyway take your family out for dinner and drag race a Camero on the way home.

This is why I bought SHO over scatpack.
I have the black grill trimmed in chrome. Option #1 paint all chromed pieces brush color or black.
Option #2 get blacked out pieces from police interceptor.

Put your VIN in the thread and there may be some people who can look up the window sticker/OASIS report

I tried to post the link but I am still a 50 year old who thinks this is a magic box and I only have so much attention span to go around, so Goggle "Ford Performance Certificate" and that will get you in the ball park. You can also get your cars window sticker. Have a great day.

Try that.

Btw. Only goes to 2013

I may be able to get your Monroney lable uploaded to the forum if I had a VIN.

This should get window sticker.

 

[SHOdded]

Those sites won't work anymore. Probably Ford shut them down? IDK. But you can likely see the sticker if it is a build in progress. Otherwise dealership only.

 

[brucelinc]

That is odd. The window sticker site worked for me when I had my Continental on order. Now it doesn't.

 

[Lostneye]

Some of those window sticker sites seem to only work if the car is active in cords inventory. Like your on order Conti or a used car at a Ford/Lincoln dealer
