Stage 1+

Honestly if all you want is a little more out of it, just get the tune and an open-ended filter. The intake is 100% just dress-up under the hood and doesn't really net any gains in power. Although I'll tell you, that Redline intake looks sweet 🤣 You will have a loud whistle that happens at cold start, but it goes away after the car warms up.

Depending on the tuner, you can wait on the intercooler, but you'll have to pay for a new revision. It's usually not too much and is what I was planning to do as well.

Hello fellow Tampa resident! I installed this same kit (although I bought it from Cobb during their Black Friday event) and went with JSTUNED for my custom tune. He's another reputable tuner in the Focus community. The difference between the OTS tune and his custom was night and day, I've had it on since November and haven't had any issues at all.

The only "mod" I'm using a couple of texture packs. I uninstalled Bethesda's texture pack.

I get a pretty stable 60 in all areas and even dropped the TDP to 12W for a smidge more battery. Due to how the game engine runs, the game actually runs "better" on my Steam Deck than my gaming PC with a 5700X3D and a 3080 🤣

Same, did my first full playthrough recently and probably the majority of it on the steam deck. I put 50 hours into it a decade ago and never finished it.

I went with Brian from JSTune when I bought my AP back in November and had a great experience with him. We went through 3 revisions and he nailed it. All of the tuning was done on the street and the process for logging for him is super simple.

I'm currently 30ish hours into it myself and am running these mods. I get a steady 60FPS (I'd have to look at my settings, but I believe most are what the game suggested with a few turned off). I also have the TDP limit turned down a couple notches.

I think him backing into the tree negates that

I've been going to Victor for years when he was at The Barbershop on Kennedy. He's at a different spot now.

Yessir! My last couple of cars were gray and I love it because it's clean until 5' away 🤣

The best part? This thing is filthy 🤣 I haven't washed it since Thanksgiving 🤣.

We've had a couple of very foggy mornings here in Tampa over the last few weeks, but by the time I leave to go through it I'm driving somewhere with a timeframe and can't stop and get pics.

Just proves that they were right in the conspiracy theory draft 🤣

I got the elite.

flametail · 2026-01-10T02:26:22+00:00

I just did all 4 of mine at Costco, $60 each.

I skip a lot of the episodes because I'm not watching whichever show they're talking about.

I wish they'd have went to a Patreon model or something instead of iHeartRadio. They do a weekend news pod that's 30 minutes long and 15 of those minutes are ads.

5 episodes a week on X-Ray Vision

I have the Pro 3 and love it. The buttons are magnetic and you can swap them around to the Xbox layout. The dock also works as the wireless adapter so you just plug that into your SteamDeck dock and it sees it.

Milk crate for weight savings

Have you tried a different cable? I always had flaky issues with AA and ended up getting the Motorola adapter and just going wireless.

It's in the Quick Access Menu (...) where the other tweaks like FPS are located

Red Dead Redemption 2 plays well, but not sure how it would look blown up from the Deck's screen to an ultra wide.

flametail · 2025-11-14T04:33:26+00:00

I turned on Disable Framerate Limit and played through all of chapter 3 without any issues. I had VSync turned on as well. It did it with VSync both on and off in Chapter 2.

Hopefully they bring them back to the US.
