I mean it can be the design of the wheel, the tread pattern, the width, the weight etc.
My OB wheels used to hum at highway speeds since I bought it off the dealerhsip floor. Put my new wheels on and it has been signficantly quieter.
On my FRS I had wheels that used to almost whistle because...
My best advice is to reach out to those you know who could possibly have z or x plan.
My wife works for Sherwin and got X plan. It is the only reason we are able to afford our full size that we have on order as well.
Second bit of advice is find a dealership that has honest pricing. We were...
Thanks for posting!
I was looking at this kit once my factory shocks go out with the leveling kit.
I have had bc coilovers for other coils and I am even considering these for my FRS track car.
I saw the volvo on there and thought the same thing!
My dad has a 2013 vw cc and that thing has 170k on the clock without any major problems. His tiguan has like 35k on it now with all of the problems.
Mild tune would not allow the engine to rev out more turbo engines dont necessarily work like that if anything the smaller turbo chokes out at higher RPMS.
The turbo i find spools quite efficiently but mild tune would be adding 1-2 psi adding/pulling timing, adding fueling etc.
Where tuning...
We ordered mine because at the time my lease was up on my normal car and we needed a car. Originally we went in to order a full size but we couldnt get a hard top and if you lived in the snow belt of Ohio you would understand why that is a big deal. Plus the orders were extremely backed up...
Same thing! When I was into VWs the VW guys always waved and when I had my bike same thing.
With the BS I get waves but I am not as excited to wave back.
How long depends once again on quality of tuning, fuel and how hard you beat on it.
If you have a quality tune they compensate for all of the above. Power doesn't kill engines heat does. Theoretically if you had an e85 tune to get more power it could actually lower combustion temps, burn...
I feel the struggle!
Purebred rott and an 80lb beagle rott mix dont help but the bronco still does pretty well in the mountains when we go to north carolina.
MY issues is coming from a boosted kswapped frs, big turbo srt4, audi s4 it is a little strange to get used to the power. Our lease was...
You would be surprised I have my 245/65/17 toyos on fifteen52s and still managed to get around 29mpg while driving to bryson city with cruise control on. The 1.5" lift may add some resistance when installed but I would still be happy if it stays above 24. I am sure itll still get better mpg than...
Thats fair!
That is one of the reasons I am waiting for my warranty to be up before hand also I want some companies to get some more time in when tuning them.
Luckily we have a full sized bronco on the way, my winter car and my wifes mk7 gli.
This thing will become my fuel efficient overlander.
I mild tune shouldnt harm it provided you have the supporting mods and correct fueling (93, e85 etc)
I had a stock motor srt4 that was pushing about 460hp on a pte6262 for 3 years before I sold it. I daily drove it and probably put about 15k a year on it. The engine had 65k before I went big...
Manufacturers typically do this for a few reasons and reliability isn't always the reason. I sold cars for a few manufacturers and one common reason is the powertrain options available. If you could buy the big bend and only lack x amount of power behind the badlands why would you buy the...
New guy here with an Outerbanks.
My wife got me the rough country lift kit for my birthday and I just read all of the sway bar issues that this kit has had in the past so I thought about ordering the HRG sway bar links but wasn't sure if this would correct the issue.
Has anyone done this in...
