    Why is it designed like this instead of fully open?

     

    What are our options for better flow?

    I know I am a little late to the game but an engineer told someone that it’s a air dynamic affect. When you close the right side it creates a high pressure and the forces more air to the left side. Most cars are starting to use this in all brands.

    I have an '06 F150screw Lariat 5.4l ,,,,it's been our daily driver both for short and long hauls.  It has 210,000 miles on it & still going strong with no end in sight.

    I just purchased a gently used ' 16 Edge sport awd, 2.7l twin turbo eco boost.......took it out for a spin last Saturday, it is comfortable, quiet loads of room,,,,,,way too many options & gadgets for what I'm used to. I wanted the Edge,my honey wants to keep the truck for awhile just incase we need to haul a ton of stuff or something really ginormous.

    We've got friends who have pickups if we need a helping hand. lol   I'm located in CANADA and we head to our place up North each weekend which is around $ 100  per weekend in fuel. We usually have a few items in the bed, nothing to justify keeping it as our dd

     

    My Edge is being delivered end of week after some steel rims & winter tires get installed.....we ha about 12 " of snow on the weekend, so the all seasons need to be put to bed till spring. It's all what you get accustomed to driving.  I know we'll love the Edge & so will you!    P.s.  my Edge goes like snot when you step on it.

     

     

    Cheers

    I put full  snow tires On during winter and have plowed through northern Idaho snow better than trucks with big tires. I have never slid with the  snow tires On even when small patches of ice the other wheels handle the lack of traction if you rev. Watch the awd and wheel power in the display. If you let off and then  rev when you start to loose traction it will figure it out.

  3. I have fit a full sized queen mattress in mine, two mountain bikes and two passengers, large wooden fur it sure 2x4 all the time, you name it I’ve tried to fit it in there. The escape is really cool if your tiny but for you might even suggest the Explorer. I can and have fit just about everything into my 15 Edge sport with the panoramic roof

    Most tuners prefer that you use stock plugs, and have them gapped at .026 The factory gap is set to 0.30 IIRC

    I did .26 and sounds ok so far. I didn’t want to bend the plugs too much. Factory was insufficient when you modify anything (for me)

    Welcome to the forum! You're definitely taking your edge to the edge! How does your edge feel with the MSD coils and High performance NGK plugs?  Is there a reason you decided to go with the JMS Boostmax over a tune? I think a tune would really make the most of your current mods. Share some pics when you can. Enjoy your stay! If you want to take your edge even further point your browser in this direction:

     

     

    The only reason for JMS was to keep the warranty for if they read the ecu, when the warranty finished in about20k I was thinking of using A dyno in Orem Utah that had some good reviews. Plus will just sell the JMS when finished with JMS. I have some 1.8 gauges coming from banks.  As the mods have gotten deeper the JMS is starting to take things backwards from what I can tell (by feel). I’m hesitant because dumps are so expensive if I’m not finished messing with things. The msd coils haven’t been installed yet. Ad debating the throttle intake, I cleaned it out the other day but need to see how it’s looking after a little driving.

  6. 15 Ford Edge 2.7tt ruthenium plugs, msd ignition coils, JMS boostmax, blowoff valve, oil separator for crankcase pressure, k and n, molded fiberglass stereo with about 2700watts, Odyssey AGM battery released this year, sound equalizers, Stephens milled aluminum tweeters, 2x exile subs, fuses for electronics. 
    stereo isn’t finished but should be soon.
