What have you done to your Ecoboosted vehicle today?

Loaded my 93 octane tune from Torrie. Ran and data logged the 91 tune last night and installed the 3 bar.

Very happy to be tuned.

Installed some new tires at the dealer,they performed a high speed forced balancing and performed a courtesy alignment and also mentioned to service advisor which have good relations with to check the the battery cause the gteen light was not present,he upgraded me to a BXT-65-850 which has more amps and weighs ten pounds heavier than the original BXT-65-650,car never started better,20hp right there lol ;)

More traction with the new battery!  Come to think of it you should have had it installed in the trunk :)
Good one there,a little bit off topic but they installed the new battery with the tune loaded,was worried at once,but checked out o.k.
 
got my hydrodipped engine bay parts back. turned out more red than i hoped for. was hoping for red/black carbon fiber look which it has but red really stands out. but closer you get the more it's balanced. & think it will also be balanced more in natural sunlight. anyway main thing was the make the sho/ecoboost area zing & i think my guy did good on that. anyway she's ready for show season, bring on those chargers, caddies & GTO that are usually in my class.

You keep finding new ways to elevate the SHO :thumb:
 
Noticed a while ago that the green light on original battery BXT-65-650 was not present,Dealer replaced it with an updated BXT-65-850 which has more amps,anyone change theres or had issues,also noticed this new battery is ten pounds heavier,probably will lose some track time. ;)

Did they just replace it on the green dot not being present or did they do a current draw test? Mine shows the red dot but still starts consecutively.
 
Two Day Process that included:
removing all traces of the rear Emblems
Washing, then three Coats of "Astro Shield"
Do not make this stuff anymore, wish I had
bought more than one Case.. [/b]

They usually perform a draw test as you stated,in my case purchsed new tires and having good relations with service advisor they just swapped it out for an updated one which has no eye.

Nice work, irondoor!  Z, did the felt pads come OEM or did you add them to the batt terminals?
Thanks -MANU ,I added them myself after the new battery install,figured do some preventative maintenance against corrossion buildup.
 
Looks good irondoor. Clean look.

I tell you I really like the outcome of your factory wheels. Those center caps really set them off.

Ordered the Magnaflow catback off eBay.  Made the seller an offer for $300 under the normal selling price and he accepted.  Cant wait to hear those hair dryers!
