Some new mods
So last night/this morning I installed a few parts on my Fiesta with the help of my girlfriend's brother who is a mechanic at a Chevrolet dealership in New Jersey. I'm gonna list what I did below.
1. DepoRacing Intercooler and Reflash Tune to Cobb OTS Stage 2 - (1 hour)
2. Mountune Lowering Sport Springs - (2 hours)
3. Oil Change - (15 Minutes)
4. Greased up my Cobb RMM with a lithium based grease to stop an awful creaking noise (it worked!) - (20 Minutes)
My next thing to do is get a Stratified tune!

I went from the cobb stage 1 91 octane tune to a stratified on a basically completely stock car (performance air filter) and definitely rather enjoy it. I believe the cobb OTS stuff don't have cobb tunable traction control enabled at all also, and the stratified tunes can be ordered with it. My stratified tune definitely runs more boost, like 25-26psi peak.

Yeah, I got my Strat Flash tune with the traction control on both of the maps, and the 'pops and crackles' on one of them.
I just want to wait until I get the cp-e IC installed before I flash in the Strat tune, even though it probably is not a necessity for this in the winter time (unless I just can't stand it anymore and load it anyway.

Gentex 453 Homelink w/Auto-Dimming there's one from the same seller I bought from.
Here's the wiring to go with it.
Install was easy. I decided to wire the Homelink power to a switched source (Fuse 17) so the car needs to be on to open the garage. I'll get some pictures to show the wiring in the next day or so.

Just got car back from getting 35% tint. Looks great. I will post pics tomorrow since it is dark. Also received my Cobb AP from Mountune. Got the package with the air filter, Mountune RMM and the Cobb AP with Mountune tunes. Lots of fun for tomorrow.
One question. The tunes are set up for quick changes using cruise control buttons. If I leave that active do I lose the use of my cruise control?

Installed my new Mountune air filter and Cobb AP with Mounting tunes. Filter was easy to install. Initial impressions on the tune. 1. Power difference not very noticeable in 1st gear. Smooth power delivery. 2. Really comes alive in 2nd and beyond. Feels stronger. Power step around 2500 rpm. 3. Torque steer is nearly gone. That makes it worth the price of admission. So far I'm happy. Debating on installing RMM myself or having Ford do it with 1st oil change.
