There is a recent post of a great looking EB with these installed who is getting 300hp on the dyno. He also has an upgraded exhaust & intercooler & tune though:)
On the 25/26 EB - that location is on the “cooler” side of the engine bay. Other side has the hot transmission and also the “hot” turbo pipe going down into the intercooler. “Cool” side of the turbo tube is under the K&N. I highlighted in BLUE where the air enters from the OEM grille...
Tried to order the Ford Performance Catback last year during a Ford 20% sale online to have delivered to my local dealer free shipping.
Ford website did not allow me to order online. Went to my local dealer to ask “what’s up?” They informed me as an Arizona resident I’m not to order from Ford...
Agree completely. Although I’ll be attentive if I’m behind a late model Ford towing a trailer - so I’m glad Ford didn’t keep it a “secret”…
Back in June last year I offered the dealer “MSRP + tax”. They accepted and let them figure out how to divvy up that $39K.
I felt smart at that time because all the other charges for prep & dealer installed options was about $3,000. Later in the year the price for a Lobo dropped by about...
I live at 3000ft elevation and never really thought about the loss of power from my EB. Seems I get about 10% less power than my sea level compatriots? About 3-4% less power per 1000 feet of elevation gain?
But my mpg’s don’t suffer (may actually gain a .5%) due to less aerodynamic drag in the...
I use GROK AI….let that sink in.
Although it did instruct me how to keep Synch out:)
I depend on forum members to mention if there are any important OTA updates that I missed. None so far. Build Date 3/25 on my Lobo.
New Lariat EB yay! What color?
Forum member Tim Bartz works at a Ford Dealer and does a weekly “scheduling” YouTube video every Tuesday…I’ll link it later today for your info.
Retail orders for the Maverick are already scheduled through the end of May. New retail orders are now being scheduled...
I’m saying a F1 driver on a Maverick without ABS can easily out stop any of us with ABS.
ABS would be obsolete on a modern F1 car because of all the advances in tires & brake compounds etc. ABS would probably slow them down now compared to the 1990’s.
And they banned CVT’s because they felt they were too fast:)
Look, all I’m saying is a current F1 professional driver can stop without ABS quicker than any civilian with ABS. Especially a Maverick lol. Would be much closer or maybe a ties with a $200k Porsche however.
I think ABS would add weight & complexity to a F1 car? Especially the latest generation that uses regenerative braking. ABS would probably piss the drivers off even more.
That article you linked proves my point. A semi pro without ABS stopped quicker than some semi dude…123ft vs 127ft.
An F1 driver can stop their F1 car in half the distance of an ABS equipped vehicle from 100mph. The G’s are six times as strong - incredible athletes.
That said, the current F1 rules this year have the drivers using regenerate braking to power the 50/50 split between electric & ICE. Drivers are...
That is a huge temperature improvement.
Without a “tune” you should see better mpg with no loss in performance?
With a “tune” you would see worse mpg but better performance?
I plan on no tune for the better mpg when I get mine installed:)
I’m not the OP, but I’m curious also because I plan to get the Ford Performance Garage intercooler for my Lobo.
AI tells me to expect a 20 to 25 degree Fahrenheit reduction in incoming air temperature to throttle body versus the OEM intercooler…nice:)

The Ford Performance Garage (via Ford...
Good input!
I’m thinking about cutting the trim below the OEM mouth (per the instructions) to let more air flow into the OEM mouth.
BTW, how did you hold the hood up while the prop rod was removed?
