Hi guys I'd like to introduce myself I'm new to the SHO world just traded my '16 charger for a 2018 SHO on Wednesday. It has 9000 miles and is unmolested so far but that's not gonna last long. I have experience modding fords my first was a procharged 07 GT the next an EcoBoost F150 I look forward to picking your brains thanks for letting me join.

Welcome to EBPF, Watsonian, congrats on the new ride!  Do post pics of current and past rides :)

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!

I did it because the Rallye was a haywagon with less power, torque and room. The taurus comfort blows the charger out of the water. Also was getting difficult to get 2 kids into car seats in and out without banging heads on the car lol.
