Hi folks, I'm thinking to install an oil cooler on my non-performance pack GT. I will go with ford's part. I saw a video on yt that someone installed it. What is this grease type substance the oil adaptor has? Is it anticorrosion grease ?Does it has to be flushed out prior installation ...

Dents and chips are unavoidable. One of the reasons I got a white car...I always have a touch up paint int he glovebox for situation like this...

Hi folks, I just installed the steeda brake lines. The lines feel much firmer at higher speeds but at very low speeds (< 20mph) seems to be a small “gap” in the pedal. Unfortunately can’t remember how big that “gap” was with the previous lines. But it seems that once the car has enough speed...

It's the intake. It happens after accelerating then it either goes away or the sound is covered by the exhaust sound. I have it too since day 0. Both in the old engine and new engine. I have the stock filters and I can hear it. If I remove the lids it becomes more noticeable.

its the intake

I like to keep ford parts . I have Ford Performance track springs. Car drives great. more planted. bUt also you will feel the bumps more. But nothing crazy

I think once I'm able to do few hard pulls to the redline all the connectors might sit properly ...or get disconnected completely lol

I actually started to become obsessive.....not worth it. One more week until my oil change and then I will do some proper "therapy session"

Hi Folks, As some of you know I got my engine replaced with a new one. Currently in the break in process and the engine has about 400 miles. No check engine light. Runs and feels great by 99.999% of the time . Few concerns Concern #1 There were few instances (3-4 times) where while I was...

That’s exactly what i’m doing with my new engine. It’s an auto though. I use the shifters . Past the first 50 miles, 4000-4500 is my limit now. Once I hit 150-200 miles I will increase it to 5k or so…all accelerations are quite linear, nothing aggressive.

kinda the front resembles a bit of Cadillac / BMW M2 ? or maybe not

you should take it easily for the first couple hundred miles. use the paddle shifters to downshift and let the engine brake , lift off gas for same thing. avoid driving at constant rpms. Any acceleration make it more linear. Don't exceed 4k rpms the first 100-200 miles. Then increase the limit...

@rijndael did you have the chance to finish your measurements ? Would be good so see the difference before and after the oil cooler installation. Thanks!

break in period

My coolant turned to "aged wine" color at 4k miles....not sure if this is associate with the leak. BUT they did pressurize the coolant system over night and it dropped few psi. As a side note, I did personally checked with the madox kit but the color never changed ....tiny leaks might not shown...

Well first time the reduction was minimal , they did check for any leaks but couldn't find any...Second time was different

I had the privilege to see all these. Dealer has been very nice to me. No complaints

A combination of tiny gasket leaks, gasket wrap / worn piston rings / worn valve seals. All of the above at some extent...I assume all of them at the microscopic level since no visible leaks were present but over time the fluid levels were going down.... I was at the verge of lemoning it and...

Long story short I had made few posts in the past about coolant levels reduction, coolant discoloration & engine oil level reduction. No check engine lights , car run great. Dealer in the past had claimed that all these are normal since they did't find any leaks..but I was not convinced. I...

Currently I have installed the "Street Starter" (#4455) and it has been great so far. I want to upgrade to the handling pack. Based on Steeda's table I will have to add vertical links (#4121) , rear toe links (#4120) and diff bushing inserts (4443). The later one might increase the noise and I'm...
