Hello!
I’ll start a build thread even though I’m well into my 2019 3.5 buildup. I still have a lot I want to do and also share experiences with others I’ve gone through with this build. Still want Upgrade brakes, many cosmetic changes, etc but....

this is what I have so far. 10-14-2020

​​​​​​-6in BDS suspension lift

-ICON Delta joint upper control arms

-FOX 2.5 Remote Reservoir Front Coilovers

-FOX 2.0 Remote Reservoir Rear Shocks

-Fuel Assault 20X12.5

-Toyo R/T Open Country’s 35X12.5X20


-Ford Performance plugs

-SCT with 5Star custom tune

-AFE CAI

-AMS Turbo inlet tubes

-Full Race Freak O Boost intercooler

-SPD 170° thermostat

-SPD catted downpipes

-SPD turbo adapters

-4in resonator delete

-AFE 4in catback

-turbosmart supersonic blowoff valve

Now back to the beginning. 6-8-2020
Project started with a completely bone stock 2019 3.5TT Stone grey XLT crew with 20,000 miles. First added was a BDS 6in suspension lift along with Fuel Assaults in 20X12.5.




Next I wanted to start with the performance modifications. SPD turbo adapters, and catted downpipe were added. Followed by a full 4in resonator delete and AFE catback.








I went with a AFE CAI



SCT with first custom 5Star tune on 93oct





then AMS turbo tubes, and SPD 170° thermostat





Best addition by far is the Full Race relocated freak-o-boost intercooler. I’m seeing that the ecoboosts respond extremely well when addressing the high heat issues.






last week I just finished up front and rear suspension upgrades.






Any additions you think I should possibly add or swap out? What do you all think?

 

Looks great! What else are you wanting to do?

 

stop tech brakes

cervini ram air hood
head lights/tail lights/fog lights etc all LED
custom front bumper

-have to get a new bumper skin, I can only find the one I have with fog lights in chrome. I’ll have it acid dipped and then painted with primer. I want it then color matched to the truck. I think it flows so much better than most of the aftermarket bumpers.

other than that I’m not 100% certain. Maybe change out the speakers? 🤷🏻‍♂️

 

Nice work, very clean installs.

 

Any problems arise? Did you add the blow off with the intercooler?

Truck looks awesome! What happened to the running boards? Did you take them off for a reason?

 

waiting on amp power boards! Plus I think it looks more aggressive without the nerf bars. Personal preference I guess.

 

CR Performance Engineering Stage 4 kit along with full bore manifolds.







being installed as I type this.....Now who wants to walk me through an E85 shopping list. Just a HPFP and then tune?

 

I love that lower grill. Looks so clean. Only thing stopping me is if I get stopped for no front plate.
