Hi everybody, I've been on the forum for a few months already just catching the drift of things.  Just starting to post, I think I have looked through most of the threads to date.  I like to make myself familiar with the site before posting is all.  My wife of almost 3 years and I live in Tea, SD  just outside of Sioux Falls, SD.  I'm also a member of the F-150 forum, pontiacbonnevilleclub, and gm forum.  I'm currently a part time student, and employee of Explore Minnesota.  I also work now and then selling small engine parts at a local store when they need extra help (for "fun" money).  The love for cars came from my grandpa, and because of him I grew up with building hot rods.  A little over a year ago we finished a '35 Ford 2 door, and quite a few years before that a '31 Ford Model A pick-up.  I'm almost 24 and have had my hands on some interesting projects and have touched on a little of everything it seems.  Always was curious about the EcoBoost engine and platforms, so thought I'd try one out.  I have a 2011 SHO.  Looking forward to being a member here!

Welcome, welcome, welcome! :hi:

As others have said, a well written intro. Nice to hear a lil background on each new registrant that signs up.

I'm sure you're Gramps is proud he's keeping the modding/restoration bug continuing on, within you.

Very cool :ok:

You've come to the right place for most, if not all, of your Ecoboost needs.

Be sure to check out all of our vendors and their various aftermarket product offerings, as well as continuing getting to know our/your fellow members, each of whom are helpful, friendly, and have been bitten by the similar Ecoboost bug!

Enjoy your time here! :newbie:

Welcome to EBPF, great to see pics of your projects :)  I think we have at least 1 other member that also works on vehicles from that generation, and races them.  Quite the obsession to have!
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
