Welcome to the community, CL, great to have you and your '12 here!  Nice set of upgrades already :thumb: any track times?
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!

No I've never done in real track times since my 94 SHO but looking forward to getting some done. I really want to get in dyno'd to see what my actual HP and torque is to the ground.

Make sure you find a linked awd dyno or the car will throw a fit ;)

CL,

Sorry to dig up an old thread but I'm considering the Continental tires you posted that you have on your ride, how have they treated you over the last year or so? Dealt with any snow? I'm in NY and need something that will be able to handle the snow.

Thanks

This is the correct answer. All-seasons are more like no seasons.
