Itās opening the throttle body more. Just a change in throttle mapping, not actually increasing power. Your right foot doesnāt really control the throttle body in modern vehicles. The ECM does.
The 6112 kit comes with springs and hardware and can be had new for $1,500 or less from some vendors. Not knocking the OME kit. Just pointing it out.
I also think the yellow color is giving some of us PTSD from stock yellow bilstein reservoirs uninstalling themselves. š
They sure did. I did this swap on my 22 Badlands. Had to get new upper nuts. I believe the 23 and up Bilsteins use the same studs as the HOSS 3.0 Fox assemblies.
Damn it, Ford. I wanted to unload this yellow junk! š
I didnāt know there were so many financial advisors on here. Iām firing mine and will be posting here from now on.
If you havenāt found anything yet, I have my yellow bilsteins sitting in my garage that you can have. I live in central Mass. Pulled them off at 32k miles, working fine, but show signs of rusting at the reservoir.
I hear this screech once every month maybe. Too random to diagnose for me so far.
There is a spring loaded valve in the muffler on these. Someone on here cut it out for some reason.
This is oil temp weāre talking about. Coolant temp, Iād more or less agree with you. Modern synthetics are fine at 245f. The real issue is that there was a large difference from what the OP usually sees.
A blown head gasket can rupture a weak-ass plastic radiator.
COME BACK TO US OP!!!
