Hey all.  My name is Rich from Brooklyn, NY and I have a 2013 Fusion Titanium AWD in Tuxedo Black.  I love the car and have started my build but its been pretty slow as life had a way of hitting.

Current Mods:

Cobb Accessport V3
Tune from Randy at Mountune
Levels FMIC
Injen CAI
Cordova Optimized TB
Boomba TB spacer
Boomba sound symposia delete
Brisk Racing Spark Plugs
Steeda hood struts
Powerstop 1-click Brake kit
DMB UK gel overlays

I have some big plans for it even if it isn't the best platform to work with but I've always have been the kinda car guy that takes the unknown and mod it than follow the crowd.  I hope to learn a lot from here and can pass anything I have on.  I am also a mod on 2GFusions with the same username.  If those guys are on here, the meme king has arrived haha.

I'll try to post a pic up later when I can.

Welcome to EBPF, Rich, def a great start to the mods!  It is nice to have another Fusion owner on here, as that helps us broaden our outlook.

We are all fighting the relative dearth of aftermarket parts, so if you know of companies that are willing to make custom parts with a low initial volume, that'd be appreciated :)
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!

Yea Yea Joe...I made it though lol

I don't have any track times as I don't have the time to hit one up but hopefully soon though.  As far as the modding a fusion goes, like I said, if I have some knowledge, I have no problem passing it on and yes the aftermarket kills us.  I will keep an eye out though.

Speaking of, Velossa tech seems willing to make snorkels for intakes and brake cooling, not sure how your air boxes route but if there is a possibility there and if a member in florida is willing to go to their shop they can likely do something up. All their stuff is 3d printed so there is a much lower bar than other companies to get something made.


Have always loved your ride Rich, looking forward to watching it evolve.

Here's a little bit of a not too much older pic of the Fusion. Maybe a few things here and there may have been done. Oh and yes that's the Freedom Tower way back in the distance because...Murica

Haha that's awesome. I'm on Ocean Parkway merging with Surf Ave and she's on Bay 37th if you're ever in the neighborhood again.  The only time I'm in Staten Italy is if I'm hoping over the bridge and going to my parents house.
