Long time Ford owner but first time with less than 8 Cylinders. Just purchased a 2016 New White Platinum SHO. Basically everything you can put on one except the Performance Package. It will be my DD. My other cars include a 2001 Bullitt Edition Mustang currently running 8.6s at 158mph in the Quarter, a Bone Stock 2016 Z06 Vette and a 2006 F250. So the SHO is my slow car. And my F250 may give it a run for it's money. But don't take that wrong. It's a blast to drive certainly not slow, but it just ended up in a fast neighborhood. Not it's fault! But I do intend to mod it at some point after some break-in miles. A tune first and likely a CAI. I do have a garage with a two post lift so modding cars is pretty easy for me.

Thanks for the add. I look forward to sucking every bit of information I can from the group and hopefully giving some back in return at some point. I also noticed Torrie with Unleashed mentioned on here a few times. Really good guy. I've known him for years. I use to live in Jacksonville FL, but now reside in Houston. Torrie's had some bad cars in his time. That's for sure!

Welcome to EBPF, Bullitt, congrats on the new ride, and great to have you on board!  Sounds like you have a pretty solid lineup, definitely post pics of all of 'em!  Jelly of the 2 post lift :D

As the Ecoboost platform becomes more familiar to tuners, they are able to extract more from it while delivering reliability & longevity with less mods.  Pretty amazing!

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!
