I am know an owner of a CPO 2014 MKS Ecoboost in Dark SideMetallic. Love the vehicle so far...first thing that I did was tint the windows, headlights and tailights as well as debadge the trunk lid. Gotta say that I heard mixed reviews on the color but it is kind of interesting and more understated than I thought (which I Like).
I really like this forum and have already learned so much.
The next things I would like to do is a tune, h&r springs and one of those carbon intakes.
Anyway, thanks to all who make this forum great!

Thanks! Car was picked up with 35k and the remainder of the 6yr 100k Lincoln CPO warranty. I really enjoy driving it. I will also need to make sure that all the fluids and plugs are up to snuff.

Welcome, Mark, that is one attention-grabbing ride!  Congrats, and here's to the start of a great journey!

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!

Congrats, welcome!
Thanks! I really like the mods you have listed. I wanted to look into something like what you have done. Any input on your setup as far as how it is working for you and how it compares to stock? Would you have done anything differently?

   I'm pretty happy with the mods I'm running which have been very reliable. I had a black 2010 prior to this and with similar mods and had over 80 dragstrip runs and daily driver duties with the only issue being brake pads and wheel bearings up to 125k! I'm very happy with the intake(clean 2x a year), catch can is working well, breather is good and thermostat and 534 plugs were a good choice for me.  I also change the oil every 6k and PTU and tranny fluid every 30k.  I do plan on finding a Corsa exhaust and replacing the springs (H&R) and shocks and struts as Im at 111k now. Its much better overall on every level than stock without question. If anything different, I would have tuned it sooner lol.
