I’m running both the TurboSmart BOV and the Ford tune, and haven’t had any issues whatsoever. I’m very happy with both products, and the service I received from Lethal Performance, which is where I purchased the parts.

That’s the main reason that I had the dealership mount the tuner; it lets them know not to flash an update. In addition to that, I had my service writer add it to my file, and I always tell them when I drop it off for service that I do not want the ECU flashed. I guess the bigger question is...

Brother, if I get a few minutes this weekend, I’ll drop the skid plate and take the pics for you. I think that the “shroud” you’re referring to is the damper. You actually just slide the intercooler back just a little and it will clear the damper and you can disconnect the hoses and drop it...

I bought th COBB intercooler and installed it myself. It came with clear instructions and couldn’t have been any easier. You drop the front skid pan, unbolt the support to drop the intercooler, pop the clips on the connections, connect the new intercooler, and put everything back together. It...

I’m sorry, but I don’t understand anything you just said / tried to say. So the modern cars are engineered to prevent wear, but you can’t prevent wear because of the increased friction of a cold start? How about trying not to drink so much before posting, ok. ?

I’d be more concerned about the one-star reviews stating that the plugs don’t match the 2024 model, the fact that it doesn’t have any posted instructions, and that the picture shows an additional (red) wire, that I assume has to be run somewhere else. I’m a big proponent of “you get what you...

I would wholeheartedly agree. That being said, the start/stop feature, as well as other makers “cylinder deactivation“ systems were all developed as a way to conserve fuel, and are not a part of the vehicle’s emissions system. Just like the button the manufacturer gives you, you can turn it...

I have a 2024 Ranger Raptor that I bought this past June. It has a tab, but unless you have really small hands, good luck manipulating it! I have fairly large hands and couldn’t even come close. I even got my boroscope, so I could look at the back of the connector. I knew exactly what I was...

‘what do you think I just installed on my 2024 Ranger Raptor?

When the engine shuts off, all of the oil drains back into the pan, thus the “cold start”. You do the most damage to your engine upon start-up, before the oil gets up to normal operating pressure. If they had really wanted to do it right, the auto start/stop would have been paired with an...

Dude, I feel your pain! I think the wife heard me “whispering” some expletives and looking for the cutting torch, so she volunteered to help!?

I don’t doubt that the feature might save a little gas, but I don’t know that is a fair trade for the extra wear on the engine and turbos. When the engine shuts down, you lose coolant flow, as well as oil flow. For the engine, it’s the additional “cold starts”, where with the turbos, , it’s...

You might think this is funny, but the one thing that I’ve always hated about my RR (and the previous 2019 Ford Ranger Lariat FX4 Sport) was the auto start/stop switch. I never use this feature, and have to remember to disable it every time I start the truck. I just picked up a bypass switch...

Me too! ?

New timeline is late December - Early 2025. ☹️

There are so many things wrong with your comment, I don’t even know where to start. How can someone who drives a TESLA be so completely ignorant about T-O-R-Q-U-E.

No more than a car length off the line, the SS caught second and was back in the game. The SS was pulling up and was dead even at around 80, when he backed off to merge into a lane for an off ramp. Like they used to say, “I guess you just had to be there”, and I was. I’m not trying to get into...

‘The RR with the FP tune is rated at 455 HP / 536 TQ to the Camaro’s 455 HP / 455 TQ. The RR weighs considerably more than the SS, but the SS is working with a very linear NA HP/TQ curve, and the RR has about 95% of that torque available at the 2200 rpm launch, and in 4A is putting all of it on...

I had the dealer mount the tuner because I wanted the diagnostic/gauges. They mounted perfectly at the bottom corner of the driver side windshield. The cord is completely invisible behind the tuner, and tucks into the A-pillar. ‘They did a great job and I really like having the extra capability...
