I can't wait to see it all done!  The cooler will work just will it work better than the factory PP cooler?  Guess we'll see. 

The ST will really try to kill you now that you're letting it breathe

The SHO should look pretty sharp, and the ST...well it will just be...itself. Just worse.
 
I use a NOS progressive mini controller. I can set it for each gear or boost or just rpm for activation and ramp up / down. I have 150shot jets in it (.056n  .048f) but have the max set to 80%. I ran about a half dozen bottles (15# bottles)through the stock 120k motor before I put my new one in. never had a issue, just got to be smart and safe on tune and ramp aggression. I have not sprayed the new motor combo yet as I am still working on getting everything out of it first.  I don't think you should have any problems.

Thanks for the info. I am probably going to throw a kit on the car just because. Once I do I will decide which route will be the best and go from there.
 
FWIW - As long as your pocket is happy proceed! Best of luck with the Mods and all cause take it from me it never ends. Z

It certainly will be fun, for both vehicles. Thanks for the kind words Z.

Must have some deep pockets buddy lol!  I'm definitely on board with having nitrous....just bc!

I wish I had deep pockets lol.  When it comes to cars....I don't have a problem spending money.  When it comes to everything else...esp clothes I become Scrooge.

Also, I have been fortunate enough to find exception deals here and there.

Well you can afford to be a Scrooge when it comes to expanding your wardrobe, or in your specific case *NOT*......

Fortunately you workout, so you can pull off wearing the banana hammock only wherever you go.

Bwahahahaha

Why do we only have a "Thank you" button?
I would like to see the "No Thank YOU" button to help Un visualize what BPD just did to all of us.
 
Just got confirmation that The Go Cart's downpipe was delivered today!  So Operation Silence Is Deadly will commence this weekend.  New strut bearings, new downpipe, updated big boost E51 tune, and a fresh oil change should make The Go Cart a bit more.......Anghellic.
 
All the parts arrived for the ST. I will tear it apart tomorrow morning. I am really impressed with the Megan Racing Downpipe. If it fits like it is made, then it is a complete steal of a price for an upgrade. $174 shipped to my house, arrived 2nd day shipping.
 
I wish they all were priced simular to that!  Its going to be a good weekend with the Focus!  Looking forward to hearing what you think of the new upgrades!
 
My dad has a megan downpipe on his ecoboost mustang. I was extremely impressed by the craftsmanship. I want to say it was only like $180.
 
It is a pretty nice piece. I had a hard time with the struts today, also Pep Boys didnt help by taking 8 hours to switch out the bearing for me. Oh well. I will button it up tomorrow.  However, the DP is installed, and oil is changed. Just have to re install the wheels and tires, and put the cowl back together.
