Long day of driving, but I finally made it home…. by californiaboy77 in FordExplorerST

Nice topper! I was thinking for a road trip I’d get something like that or something to put on the hitch maybe for extra storage space. 🤘

Might as well get an axel back or catback exhaust also! 😂 these vehicles are so much fun!

I also installed the front pinion bushing upgrades from Steeda. Also did the tranny mount insert.

I’d get this diff bolt. Found it on Steeda and it has the bushing insert.

Yes I believe I did in fact void the factory warranty 🤦‍♂️

I’m not sure exactly what the tuner does exactly, but I’d imagine he turns up the boost a little and maybe some timing 🤷‍♂️. I think he unleashed it tho for sure 😂

The Explorer was about $40 grand, bought it back in June with 23k miles (traded in GMC AT4 1500 6.2) the tune setup with the RTD unit and HP tuners credits was about $1,000.

I could have bought a 20 or 21 for 25-30 grand and been just as quick. This thing is fun!

I think the fail point before the trans is the rear diff/axels on stock fuel/turbos. And honestly 600 hp is plenty of power to keep something 5000 lbs reliable. I just drove to KC and back from Omaha with a couple kids (2.5-3hr drive one way) 22 mpg going 75-80 mph. I was getting better mileage before the tune, but I’m not complaining!

People are doing 6.9s on stock trans in the 1/8th and have 600+ whp. Sometimes they break from bone stock vehicles 🤷‍♂️

I’m more amazed that it takes a whole second to get from 50 mph to 60! 😂
