Didn’t it take a bunch of posts on Facebook to get the v3 tune in the works for last years edge? Might help if we all hassle them ?

My owners manual says SP-542, but when I went to the dealer they tell me these plugs are superseded by the SP-578 plug & they dont have any information as far as heat range or material. A couple of googles also really didnt produce any factual data about this new plug. Does anyone know what the difference is and which one is optimal? Other than "tuners recommend 542" once all those plugs are gone we will be stuck with the 578's good or bad.

Installed FORScan. disabled stupid auto stop start filled up on 100/92 mix for 93 octane Looked at evo thought I was fast

Someone buy this man a beer. Changing the spark plugs doesnt look so bad now

Lol you know what I mean One shouldn’t have to press the buttons each ignition cycle.

Ordered! Thanks for the assist.

Thanks! I wanted to stay with a cabled solution but I guess Bluetooth would be fine too.

I'm trying to find a cable I'll only have to buy once and wont give me any errors. I want to disable the auto-start using Forscan on the 2019 Edge. I dont know if the toggle switch one will give me issues or will limit me from updating some parameters? https://www.amazon.com/Sojoy-FORScan-Scanner-FT232RL-Vehicles/dp/B07BLRMG3R/ref=asc_df_B07BLRMG3R/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312064691975&hvpos=1o2&hvnetw=g&hvrand=13112709089528001400&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9033275&hvtargid=pla-701577955637&psc=1 or https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01F0GVBWY/ref=ox_sc_mini_detail?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3HT224M59LA1C Cheers!

I had a lot of the same questions as you as far as which tuning solution I’m going to use. Coming from Ecuflash which is free and has a huge community support, looking at the tuning options for this car or even US cars in general is daunting. On the plugs, you would want to run a closer gap only if your getting high rpm misfires. Otherwise running a wider gap will make more power. Colder plug would help on pump/race gas if your making a lot more whp than stock. Stock/hotter plug usually works better for E85-100.

Thanks! I’m guessing the Ford Performance 70mm for the 2.3 EcoBoost fits as well. Although spendy.

For example on the Evo replacing the rear mount causes more NVH than replacing the front mount, so majority just go with the front mount and OEM rear/sides unless race car. Filling the OEM mount comes from the DSM crowd where filling with $10 of urethane was cheaper than buying an aftermarket mount but was also a good trade-off of NVH vs the aftermarket mounts higher durometer rating. Trying to have your cake and eat it too with stiffer bushings and NVH is often not possible, I understand.

Yea aftermarket support seems to be pretty poor from what I've gathered. I wish there was something like Ecuflash support. I'm not a fan of canned/off the shelf maps but also not a fan of doing pulls on the freeway. My local dynojet shop doesn't want to tune it unless Cobb has an AP for it so I guess its Livernois or Unleashed for me. The throttle body looked like an easy mod though even if its only good for a few whp.

So it appears the Mustang EcoBoost and several others have the same Ford part number for the throttle body as the Edge ST 2.7? From the info I gathered people are running the BBK Mustang Ecoboost TB on the Edge. Are there any 70mm + options that are also compatible without modifications?

Why does this require the fans to be adjusted?

Rather than making a new thread I thought I'd bump this one. Has anyone tried filling the OEM motor mount with 3M window sealant or the like? Is the front motor mount too difficult to get at? In other FWD-based AWD platforms the front mount is usually the first to be replaced. I can tell the engine/drivetrain shifts back and forth a lot and could benefit from better mounts, however, its not a race care and is supposed to be a comfortable, quiet daily driver.

Anything new on this? *Edit* Called aFe and they said its still on their R&D list but didnt have any other information. Probably before end of year I'm guessing.
