Hey figured id post to this section. I'm Anthony and live in northern Il. I used to work heating and air conditioning but since it was seasonal I decided to go into corporate America. I currently work now and have been working for Zebra tech for 9 years. I am in charge of training our repair facility and other repair facilities across the world on Card printers. I travel quite often for work leaving my wife and my second wife (sho) alone as I am training people in other countries. When I am not working I am going to school pursuing a degree in business administration.

I am the proud owner of a Tuxedo Black 2014 SHO non PP. I traded in my MKZ for a real car:-)

The only thing done to it so far is replacing the factory air intake with the one from K&N.

I started playing with cars back when if you wanted a little more HP you tinkered with a few things. If you wanted more you you tinkered with allot of things.

My very first car was a 1972 Mustang Sport Coupe (still am not a fan of Fastbacks) it came with a 302 4v, was swapped out with a Boss 302. When my father the old time drag racer drove the Boss engine he said the car was still to big and heavy for the motor. Shortly after that I received my birthday, Christmas and Graduation present. The Boss 302 was swapped out for a 429 Cobra, my father smiled and said now the engine is bigger than the car, be careful.

Now so many years later all I need do is tinker a bit to get what i am looking for out of my SHO.

Welcome to EBPF, congrats on your '14 SHO!  Very true, nowadays just a bit of tinkering can make a big difference, and thankfully, Ford has left that possibility alive & well with the SHO :)  Got pics?  Any & all rides welcome ...

Hello everyone   My name is Ken and like everyone else here enjoy cars !
   I have been into cars for years and have raced many Fords in the past. Partial to the old 427 cars.
I have however, slid off the Blue Oval and purchased other great cars in the past. But always come back to my Fords.
   Well, I just purchased a 2013 Ford Taurus SHO and I am looking forward to some Mods. My wife and I will be driving this car as a daily driver so the mods will not be too wild. Most likely looking at a cold air kit and a tune. Exhaust if not too loud. Any suggestions ?
    Some of my cars of the past:
1969 Mustang Mach I   (swapped out 428 for 427)
1969 Shelby GT350
1968 Shelby GT350 conv
1970 Mercury Cyclone Spoiler
1971 Mustang Mach I (429SJ) Auto
1972 Nova SS (350)
1972 GMC Sprint (402)
1967 GTX 440 Auto
1964 Ford Gal XL R code (427)
     Present cars:
2013 Ford Taurus SHO
1993 Ford F150 Mark III
1967 Ford Fairlane GTA

Welcome to EBPF, Ken, congrats on the return to the Ford family :)  Tunes can be had from Unleashed, Livernois, and also LET.  There is a rumor that there may be a couple of tuners using HPTuners for the SHO, as yet unconfirmed.  Downpipes vendors are PPE, Livernois, and Unleashed.  Catbacks (or turbobacks as I have heard them called recently) - Corsa is probably the handsdown favorite, but you can rig your own with, for example, an X pipe and mufflers.

Thank you ZSHO and SHOdded for your welcome !
     ZSHO, this is a non Performance package vehicle. I believe that's what you are referring to.
   I certainly will post some pictures to his site once I figure out how to upload them.
                                                    Thank you again for your welcome,                  Ken
