Power foaming a 3.5 ecoboost

[mquick5]

How much of a pain was the tranny? I switched to 5w30 synthetic the other day as well. Plan on doing the others too. Let us know how you mount the JLT can cause I thought I read here somewhere it won't mount where the F150 has it without mod. I want to add the JLT too and was thinking of just shortening the bracket. CRC cleaner will be later this week.

Jlt oil separator should fit fine. For a short while they changed the mounting bracket from the fire wall to the battery box. Jlt found out right away the new bracket dosen't work on the Expedition's. So as long as you specify when you order it from them, it should come with the firewall bracket. When I ordered mine it came with the battery box bracket, which was way to tall. One quick call and jlt sent the other bracket.

If you guys are on the fence about the oil separators, guys at JLT are extremely professional and they now what they are doing. I live 15 minutes from them and have been to the shop several times.

17 city 21-24 highway depending on speed
I’m on a 3” lift and 35s also. Not bad in my opinion

I was just on s&b's website the other day and they have a pn for the expedition, and all of the testing protocol has been released, but it did still say "coming soon."

But actually i just now checked again and it is listed for sale! #75-5130 is the pn for 15-17 expeditions.

And youre probably right about the tune in regards with a "mileage tune."

Other cars ive turned up over the years actually still got better mileage in higher power, as long as you just dont drive like a maniac. So yeah i guess if there are say...3 levels of power I would probably just keep it in "tow" all the time and not "race."

S&b intake now available. $300... pretty steep

Not sure what benefit that intake has. The OE intake is already "cold air" out of the wheel well. Looks good, though.

They replace the air tube that drops into the wheel well area with a 23% larger on. Other than that maybe (big maybe) 10 hp

I have a k&n CAI for sound and looks. Coupled with my tune, I’m at least getting optimized airflow from it now. Without a tune, useless other than for sound bc the hp “gain” is all the way up at 5000rpm

10hp on a 365hp engine is *** Wow! *** 3% gain. I'm happy with the lack of engine sounds on the Expedition. On my S2000, though, induction and exhaust sounds are part of the "power" experience.

I hear ya! I went with aftermarket since the custom tuner I have can tube for increased airflow efficiency to maximize the mod

299 isnt bad compared to others. And I may do it but with the understanding that im going to do a tuner as well.
