Decided to start my own thread instead of posting all this in the new member section!

At the dealership getting picked up:




First thing I did is got it tinted :)




It's great for haling christmas trees! :D


At first I was planning on keeping it stock but the mod bug in me didn't let it happen :D

So let the modding begin!

Livernois Tune


And than dyno!

Great start to the build thread!  I can only hope it continues apace :)  So V8 tune Revision 3?
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!

so what's a build thread in your understanding? i was under impression that a build thread is something you do to the car that is not stock? yeah i am not planning on making 600 awhp with this car so that doesn't consider a build thread? I am planning on making 400+ awhp with it though.
