What have you done to your Ecoboosted vehicle today?

Oil change at 1800 miles... looks like crap.... no metal flakes... that's good news...

I usually put some cheap synthetic oil annually and drive it for roughly 500 - miles in order to flush out any left over crap buildup for a piece of mind and then add the good quality stuff like Redline,Amsoil. Z
 
Dynomax axle back installed took about 10 minutes using the correct pipe cutter. (Why people use cut off wheels and saws I have no fricken idea.)  Idle-3500 fantastic improvement.  3000+ car doesn't sound any different. (Kinda sad about that)  With a PP the small amount of drone that is now present is between 70-80mph.  It's pretty insignificant and won't hurt the car's primary use as a daily/Realtor cruiser.  Also, likely a 10lb weight reduction too.

I'm digging it though.  Like most mufflers I'm sure after a few hundred miles they'll break in and wake up a little bit.  I wish the exhaust tips weren't the size of a power strokes.  I think the stock ones were perfect.  These things are huge.

So this is about to happen. Going to compliment the Livernois Level 2 Performance Package and 3 Bar Map Sensor already installed. I feel like a little boy on Christmas morning. Expecting it delivery this Friday.

Z - bought his. 0% interest for 12 months with a Best Buy Visa. Also bought the auto accessory (suction cup) and a bunch of other ones for my wife when we go to the Philippines in December.

Playing around with it now. It's pretty damned awesome.

They also have cheaper ones (last years models) but they're as basic as they get. I highly recommend one.

Finally got to try out the new H&R springs at BSD yesterday.  I was very happy in the results.  My 60fts dropped to very low 1.8s and had one 1.79.  Neither car was ever that low.  Car ran consitant low 12.5s, great for when I go back for a Friday night, HEHE.  Another positive that happened was a new best trap speed.  I had gone a best of 110, but yesterday was 112.  So got some good baseline numbers so when I get the new V11 meth tunes, I can compare numbers.

I have this Borla system on my Explorer Sport. I think you are going to be very happy with it.

I hear it runs quiet on he highways and Lin drives too. That's why I went with it.

Good day, Eco-Boost Enthusiasts! I bought a GoPro 5 Sessions Camera yesterday and was fooling around with it today and shot this video.

Disclaimer - I am an amateur and new to all this technology but edited this video with iMovie.

This is how the Livernois Motorsports & Engineering cat-back downpipes sound with the OEM mufflers. This will change this week as I am installing a Borla S-Type Exhaust System. I can't wait and I'll be sure to shoot video of that as well.

I hope you enjoy and like my YouTube video on my page!

Okay Explorer Enthusiasts. Here's the first video of my new Borla S-Type Cat-Exhaust System with a Livernois Catted Downpipes.
About a 45 second video of the start up and short launch. I'm editing video of my 5 minute drive home so you can hear what it sounds like when you punch it and drive at various speeds. 
I hope you enjoy and please like my video on YouTube. I would be ever grateful. :)

The borla to my ears, sounds quite a bit more refined than the corsa. I like it.

Finally got around to installing my ptu drain plug, fresh Amsoil severe gear oil and an engine oil change. Ptu now has the same drain plug as the trans. I flushed half a quart of new gear oil through before the final fill. Took exactly 16oz.

Finally, got around to throwing in some AMSoil in for oil change, has anyone used/installed a fujimoto oil drain plug? Was going to but didn't like how much it protrudes down. bummed because looked like a great idea for cleaner changes.
