the problem with the steering wheel not being centered is ON A NEWER CAR with ADAS features, unless the steering angle sensor was reset lane centering, lane departure and collision avoidance stuff can be negatively impacted. That is not the case here but I just wanted to point it out for future...

it WAS the fastest American car around the ring

someone put a zip tie on your driveshaft as a joke?

Unless you are going to triangulate to the cowl, it is not going to do much but look good IMHO

you can use any of the hundred or so online tire size calculators to see how much difference there is in diameter and that will give you a good approximation of how far off your speedo is going to be. I'd be more concerned about how the ABS and other ADAS systems interpret the difference in...

Is the heater box/AC drain clogged? When you run the AC do you see condensate water under the car? If it is blocked or partially blocked you will start getting mold in the box, and that is a bad thing

True, Ford for some reason is not supporting E85 fuels in the Coyote platforms There are incredible gains to be had using E85, and I have no idea why Ford is not supporting it I have not delved into the E85 world myself so it is not something I have any amount of knowledge about outside of...

Glitch... As I said above sometimes codes get tossed for no good reason That is the reason I don't chase codes. record the data, look at the basics while I am in there (fuel trims, voltages, O2 sensor switching, etc) and unless something is really screaming at me (Fuel trims at +35%!) or the...

There is a limit in the tune for how much advance it will give you, advance is not unlimited and as I said above there is a point where you don't get any more torque from adding timing, and the tune is done to comply with EPA standards for emissions. There may be a ton of torque left in there...

I bought the car with the intention of Supercharging it, I decided against it for a bunch of reasons. I don't think any tuner has been able to get much more out of a stock 7G car than Ford has it tuned for, as many have opined Ford is already squeezing everything out of the engine NA that they...

I would love to see a data log for the ignition timing on those pulls

Octane rating is not a rating of power, it is a numerical expression of a gasoline's resistance to pre-detonation, or "pinging" As you get higher cylinder pressures lower octane fuels will light off before the spark starts the burn, and that does really bad things to rods, bearings and even...

you are running what any engine builder would tell you is a LOT is compression for a street engine. I don't know what the cylinder pressure numbers are, but they are up there. What the tuning on these cars does is listen to the knock sensors, and when you are running 87 octane and getting on...

Ford insists the additives in the oil are only good for a year The oil life calculator deducts for age even if the car sits Mine went 3200 miles between oil changes and exactly one year after the last time the monitor was reset it went to ZERO oil life went When I left the car in May, it had...

I have a set, I got them from @LevittownFordParts for iirc about $170 shipped Good for putting in/on at car shows and cruise nights Rumor has it one of the many reasons Ford stopped offering them was the bottom side reinforcing ribs would run the top's fabric and wear it. I am not going to...

does this mean Ford is giving up on their own navigation system and admitting defeat because many of us are using one of the 2 Google products (WAZE or MAPS) via Android Auto rather than the Ford onboard nav system

frankly, I scan the car, record the codes (scanner saves it as a file) and I clear the codes and tell the customer to drive the car and come back if the C.E.L. comes on Too many times a car will just toss a code and it is a glitch. If you went into a shop, and they charged you $180 dollars for...
