  1. First performance upgrade recomendations

    Yeah, jacking rails are a real good first choice. I don't know how much clearance the GT has compared to my Dark Horse HP, but my low profile extended reach Daytona jack was useless everywhere except the factory pinch lift points. The rails make it much simpler: jack up the car from the center...
  2. Android Auto shutting down randomly……

    S24 Ultra here. I don't think I've gone a single day without having to reset my APIM to get SYNC and/or Android Auto working. It is my only real complaint about this car. To make it even more annoying, you also lose your backup camera lines after an APIM reset until the next start. Ford really...
  3. I took the Dark Horse to autocross this weekend

    Thanks bud! Steeda H-pipe and Whipple are the only mods I've done that would affect the sound. I am quite the fan of her exhaust note, too!
  4. I took the Dark Horse to autocross this weekend

    Had another day of autocross yesterday. I'm getting better at it but definitely far from the car's limits. Here's a vid of my best run: Middle of the pack and 5 seconds slower than the leader but still puts a smile on my face! 😄
  5. DIY Whipple install discussion, advice, tips, and lessons learned

    Nice. I had the same problem but I used a little mallet persuasion on the post screws so that the brackets lined up. Enjoy!
  6. Whipple Calibration and Idle Surging

    I checked mine for ya. No surging, but my idle fluctuates between 780 and 820 when the throttle is closed. I do find that engine braking has been reduced a bit. Revs don't fall as quickly as before.
  7. DIY Whipple install discussion, advice, tips, and lessons learned

    I find great satisfaction in knowing my ride is modified the way I want it because I did the work. This was a good opportunity to become more familiar with everything under the hood on this generation. Here's my thoughts on my install. I took my time and my Whipple install took me about 15...

    Whipple install completed! I owe the thread my thoughts about the install but that'll come another day after I get time to sit down and think it out. Money shot:

    Inventory done. Install in progress! Before pic: My attention is now fully on getting blown this weekend :D
  10. DIY Whipple install discussion, advice, tips, and lessons learned

    My Whipple has been delivered. Exciting! Whipple recommends Motorcraft Full Synthetic 5W-50. I preemptively changed my oil to that during my first oil change two weeks ago at 1500 miles. Ford charges about $210 for a case of 12 quarts of their 5W-50 Synthetic. I bought a case of 12 on Amazon...

    Thanks! Those are the limits I implied but was too lazy to lookup myself :D
  12. DIY Whipple install discussion, advice, tips, and lessons learned

    You've got a good friend and a fine opportunity. Nice! For me, though, with no ASE certified friends, and given that the number of boosted car problems I've had throughout my life is zero, I find the risk vs reward acceptable.
  13. DIY Whipple install discussion, advice, tips, and lessons learned

    For the stage 1 kits that offer warranty, Ford Performance or Whipple would assume, within limits, part of the 3 year 36k mile powertrain warranty. It's a great benefit if you want to go that route but of course it costs you that labor up front for the peace of mind that it would bring you. I...

    Same, Ford estimated a $2k install for me as well. I asked out of curiosity when I was sitting in the lobby waiting for them to return my car after their 3rd attempt at getting the alignment back to FSM spec after I installed all of my suspension upgrades. Regardless of how representative the...

    My Ford Performance branded Whipple kit will be delivered tomorrow provided no courier delays . I intend to do my own install this weekend. I figured I'd start a thread where the self-installers on here can share their advice, tips, and lessons learned from doing their installs . Please, no...
  16. Has anyone received/tracking info on Whipple kit ?

    Haha yeah! I ordered March 18. The 17th will be here in no time!
  17. Has anyone received/tracking info on Whipple kit ?

    Being that I just got a FedEx notification for a big ol' package from y'all, it's probably safe to say part of that pallet is mine! Awesome!
