I'm including @LevittownFordParts in this thread; they are a sponsor of the site and supporter. You can also PM them directly with the part numbers you're seeking. Please include your VIN in the PM.
There's also Ford OEM parts on-line and Ford Performance; they might have some of these items...
The OP of the video, looking at his reddit account...he tends to inflict damage first, then seek help on reddit.

To compliment the thread and posts, an internal look of the central resonator.
Edit,
The photos of the muffler and resonator can help explain their differences.
In the resonator below, it is more or less a straight pipe, but the pipes have holes. Some of the wave energy enters the chambers...
I do not consider AE a muffler delete. Muffler and resonator delete can be brutally loud, all the time.
For those not familiar with the system, I'm attaching some photos of a valve, the flap in the pipe and the internals of a AE muffler itself.
Ford has spent a good many years getting the...
Attached are two threads of K&N filters and alarms. There is at least another but I stopped at two.
K&N, especially the oiled type, cause issues.

I can think of a few things...
- Lower tire pressures to 32-23, cold. I don't think this is the root cause, but 34 cold seems a bit much. Check the placard in the door jamb
- Reset Magneride. The process might be different to reset or zero-out the system in the S650, but there is one for the...

I read one as being plastic, the other, true carbon fiber.
The cheaper one, in the description:

This thread is extensive, but it lists a lot of 10R80 knowledge that might be of use.
There are two, general rim/tire setups: staggered and squared.
Staggered is when the front and rear rim and tire widths differ. Many drivers and factory rim/tire combos are staggered, often optimized for performance.
Squared is when all four rims and tires are the same size. A simpler setup...
The condition of the 10R80 being low on fluid is not uncommon. While not seen on a consistent basis, it does happen. In the S550 forums, it was one of the first things to check when the trans was not shifting as well as the owner thought it should be.
My thinking is, being an new auto with all...

I use one from J&L. Others prefer the one from Ford Performance. Either would be fine. It's a personal preference what one chooses. There may be other manufacturers out there that are just as good.

I went straight from factory fill to PUP. I run oil analysis at each change. The engine is healthy.
From Blackstone's comments and my own experience, it takes two to three oil changes to see all the characteristics of the new oil. That's not a good thing or a bad thing. It's just a thing. And...
To All,
- Document the car as best possible when dropping off. Photos, a short video, etc. Confirm with the Service Advisor, on their ticket, what condition anything is in. Be as specific as you like. This does two things: 1) it formally documents the condition of the car, 2) it lets people...
I'm still processing what might present well between the tint of the windows and the wheels.
Something I've suggested for stripes, side or over top: construction paper and scotch tape. Maybe colored tape. It's conceptual, right? Whatever you think might look good, buy something and place it in...

Sorry to read of the damage. For those picking up your cars in the future, I was given 72 hours to return and discuss any shipping damage. After that, the window for Ford filing a claim with the shipper would be...
I'm not sure there is anything you can do.
The car's VIN is on the dash, in the door jamb, on the engine block and certain chassis points.
At assembly, the lineman reaches into a pool of chassis number placards and places it on the dash. The action is completely random.
I looked through all...
That's disappointing, to say the least. :facepalm:
Curious, I read Ford's Pre-Delivery Inspection checklist. While the attached specifically says check the windshield washer bottle and coolant reservoir, it says nothing about checking the oil level. That's a fail. It does say check all under...
Updating some items for my stash, posting them here.
In the first photo, an entire EPAS rack assembly. The motor is most forward. The belt drive, to the left. Steering column tie point, to the right. This is a Ford rack, not necessarily one for a S650. Disregard any PN# references.
