If you want the full 810 with this kit out of an otherwise stock S650 5.0, you need the AVE.
You don't just "turn up the boost". Do you think there is a dial on top labeled "BOOST"? The included tune is THE Ford tune.
You don't. Using FORScan to mod all these values isn't plug and play, especially early on. Until someone tries something out, reports back, and the spreadsheet is updated, nothing is guaranteed.
Article says they'll take a base GT @ 480hp to 810hp. Not without the AVE, which is not in the base GT and which the article doesn't even mention.

Most ppl don't realize that putting a car cover on a vehicle anytime other than immediately after washing it is actually doing more harm than help. You're rubbing dust, dirt, and everything else right into the paint surface when you drag the cover across it.
I have the indoor OEM DH cover...
As part of my self-defense prep, I always carry (among other things) a small yet powerful rechargeable tactical flashlight. Good not only for under the hood but when inspecting any other part of the vehicle. I guess I just don't see a need to strap everything to the car itself.
None of those...
Yes, it was satire.
That said, MOST car thefts are crimes of opportunity, and most criminals don't walk around with LNā or huge bolt cutters in thier back pockets. For the rare times I pocket my fob and go into the store, they aren't going to be able to get a signal while I'm in Walmart...
No, most of the time I park my car and either go into my house or my office. Either way, I almost never have my keys on my person. They live my backpack, and I don't walk around the house or office with my backpack on.
When I had my car ceramic coated, I also had the windows tinted (all of them, including the windshield) and had Glassparency applied to the external surfaces of every windows (it's like a semi-permanent Rain-X). The glass was professionally cleaned as part of this process, so it looks great (no...
I read somewhere (but have not confirmed myself yet) that, not long ago, Ford made a change to the fobs. If the fob doesn't move for like 5 minutes (e.g., you set it down on your nightstand or on the kitchen counter), it stops transmitting. That way, thieves can use their fancy...
Husky X-Act Contour. They are laser measured like the WTs, but the material is softer so you don't slide around on it like the WTs. Since discovering them years back for one of my trucks, I've put a set in every vehicle I've bought.
