What have you done to your Ecoboosted vehicle today?

[mjhpadi]

Sorry to hear that Scott, I was going to ask why you didn't use the orbital first, but you beat me too it....

I just took the "diaper" off

I took the diaper and swirl inducers in the intake off.

I'm not convinced either did anything for noise. Should I drive more?

 

[DJE624]

Take it out and do a few WOTs!

Waiting for the plastidip to dry. Orange reflectors on the mirrors

I haven't driven it yet either.  I have a 2 hour round trip tomorrow to my up my twins from my Mom's house tomorrow so I will get plenty of seat time then.

Dipped my taillight trim. Gotta figure out if i like it or not. Almost looks out of place without anything else black back there.

Good job but yeah, it would probably look better if you did the spear too. 

 

[SHOdded]

Can you PD the headlight trim to match?  That way you would be consistent front to back and still be able to retain any chrome trim as "connector" bits.  Until you go the full black PD route that is LOL.

What is the diaper?

Any improvement in intake sound?

 

[thatsmrgimp2u]

I'm going to do the upper and lower parts of the grill on Wednesday. Eventually the rims will be dipped as well so we will see. It looks good from a distance but up close it's a bit off.

It is a sound deadening cover that the F150 EB's have.  Between the two items I hear a very slight increase in intake and turbo sound.  It was really not worth the effort IMO but I'm not going to bother putting either back now that they are off.  The diaper has to be removed for oil changes anyway, and the owners manual says to remove it prior to doing any off roading.

Thermostat came in today. Was expecting the sct as well but ups' last update states "held by origin facility". I'm too impatient for this ****... Lol

Received my new 275/50/17 28" tall drag radials, the slick in front is what I tried to run last time which are 26" tall.
Ordered some wheels this morning and they'll be here tomorrow, 17x8" 18.5lbs.
This should resolve my traction issues without being so short.

 

[geswek]

OMG, I'm going to drive my SHO today -- it's been a week since I got behind the wheel. I'm having too much fun with my race car. LMAO

 

[SHOdded]

Now onto a Triumph TR6

If your chrome was peeling, then the black PD looks way better. Try doing the "TAURUS" and "SHO" badges and see if that helps.

 

[thatsmrgimp2u]

It was peeling pretty bad. I took the taurus badge off. I may do the sho part. I've got some free time on Sunday ;-)

I switched from Torrie's 93 MPG tune to his 93Perf tune so I can data log it and have him due his thing on it.
