2020 Ford Explorer ST | Performance Upgrades

[@afittanto1]

One year later my ride still rocks with no issues! The guys at BDSS do awesome work!! Only thing I did post install was tweak the tune a bit more. I'm getting sub 4 secs, 0-60 on a nice cool day now...

[@alpastor8417]

Im so glad you guys are in IL! eventually i will take my future explorer ST to yall! great work & video!

[@braddycarter9312]

UPR catch can is far superior. With the high flow billet fitting and billet one way check valve we have seen a 1.5 MPG increase, and better power under boost.

[@twinforce_fusion6560]

Will keep this video in my archives. Currently own a full FBO 17 FFS and starting to look for another project. Still looking for an AWD sedan (Twin-turbo), but the Explorer ST is definitely part of my top 5 choices for my next acquisition. Cheers.

[@ScoobyDrewski]

Get the Explorer!! I also had a 18 ffs. Sadly it got wrecked 😞 had 2 f150s since but now sport around a 23 Explorer st. You won't regret it it's a awesome vehicle. I also have the white paint it's beautiful!! With a few other red accents it really stands out 😊

[@YingYangStang]

Ford performance tune, Whipple intercooler, AFE CAI, get you the same amount of HP without wasting 2K on a BS Borla do nothing exhaust and retain all your warranties

[@timabdykaar2270]

Nice sound 😍 And how much cost all those performance upgrades with work ??

[@douglascrawford4791]

Just by adding a drop in I noticed an improvement

nice work good package torque beast ST!

[@4legdfishman]

I just purchased a brand new Explorer ST. It already has 400 hp. I'm dying to add to that!

[@michaelhood1291]

It has 400 ENGINE HP… not 400 HP to the wheels. Different beasts.

Total Price for upgrades / install on this build???

[@rossmarlin4947]

I'll be pushing 550 after 2 the custom tuner

[@kdh6588]

So the post dyno numbers are results of an aftermarket tune? Did you dyno again after bolt on mods (CAI, Whipple, Exhaust)? Curious what the bolt on mods would have yielded.

[@BlackdogSpeedShop]

Yes it was put on the dyno again after the bolts-ons and the tune and gained approximately 55WHP

[@wilsonvelez7588]

enjoyed that was really good do you guys have a shops in Pennsylvania

[@BlackdogSpeedShop]

Unfortunately not. However we have customer all over the country sending or driving their cars to us for work. Thank you for watching!

​@@BlackdogSpeedShop only like 5 hours from me and I liked what I saw. Your shop is clean!!! Where those gains without a 93 tune?

OK real question can I put all of this on the XLT same year 2020?

🤦🏻‍♂️ camber adjustment in the rear is at the top of the control arm. PLENTY of adjustment.

[@pedro_sanchez.80]

What about just an intercooler and an e50 tune?

[@richardsciarrone5877]

What did this cost I'm curious I want to do it all to mine

[@DumbCarGuy]

$8800

[@davidjjoffe]

WHERE ARE THE ROTORA BRAKES?????

[@joe-g1749]

You can gain a LOT more power than in this video with a better tune & fuel. ZERO bolt-ons required. Although the Intercooler is certainly desired for improved power longevity. As the charge air heats up rather quickly with the smallish turbos, the ECU pulls timing and lowers the desired Load/Torque targets to prevent any serious detonation. The other bolt-ons are simply bling/waste of time/money.

[@PepeDeezNutz]

Wow mr. Know it all

[@bavarianblessed]

@@PepeDeezNutz He's correct. It's been proven, a quality tune and intercooler is all that's required to put 460+ to the ground on 93. If it's an E50 tune you'll make over 500 at the wheels. ZFGRacing is the tuner to use for those numbers

[@PepeDeezNutz]

@@bavarianblessed idc

[@bigdaddy5629]

@@bavarianblessedZFG might be a better tuner, that doesn’t mean all the parts are a waste. Tune being equal, there’s no way you can tell me that the mods aren’t making a difference. 🫡

[@jimjasinski4861]

Badass 😊

[@gnobes9677]

how much did all this cost?

[@Zaltic]

I wish ford made a V8 version

[@stratton8851]

Idk. The WcoBoosts are pretty bad ass. You can mess with the tuning, the boost you can get is crazy. They would just stick a 5.0 in it and call it a day. And most likely get 400hp

[@burtonh1]

I was curious, is there enough room to swap to a Coyote motor?

[@PepeDeezNutz]

That’s stupid

[@bigryan1965]

I would love to see Ford offer a V8 version to compete with the Durango..

[@Drewwhid1]

It already stomps the 5.7 Durango. And With this tune and setup it beats the Durango 6.4 SRT

[@chebrneck]

What is that like $10k in parts and labor. And isn't the stock ST 400HP?

[@casper24ism]

Where did you get 20k?

[@mustang43058]

400hp.... at the engine.... The only thing that really made the power difference is the tune

[@douglascrawford4791]

Do you have any bolt on for a 2019 Explorer sport

[@BlackdogSpeedShop]

There are bolt on upgrades available for the explorer. Give us a call at 847-634-7534 and we can discuss what is available for your explorer.

[@shanecole5082]

he tuned it doting worry

[@rossmarlin4947]

How do you get 330 when they say 400tt

[@De.3three]

I literally just bought 1 I'm trying to figure this out

[@lucian7182]

Drive train loss, awd has the highest drive train loss factor about 18-20% by the time it gets to the wheels. These typically are around 330 wheels. With an intercooler an a tune you can put 400 at the wheels. Add downpipes, intake, and your fav catback, and you can get them in the 440-500 whp range depending on how aggressive your tune is and the fuel .After 500whp you need fueling and turbos then your looking at 650-700 whp.

[@chadcox1985]

does any of that viod warenty

[@t3chj0ck]

when there's a will there's a way. from my understanding, they have to prove that the mod caused the issue, but good luck proving it didn't.

[@chadcox1985]

@@t3chj0ck right, they never let us have any fun. i dont think the exhaust would do anything but power mods, and for sure a tune.

[@PepeDeezNutz]

Send it

[@SBHink]

What my dealer is saying is the cold intake cooler is no biggie but they're little more hesitant about the intercooler upgrade.

[@chadcox1985]

@@SBHink do you know if you have to tune if you get all that.

Freakin cop car

[@gpitts2429]

That's a bunch of $. For that little HP. Thought it had 400 from factory.

[@ejimenez365]

It's 400 engine horsepower. Wheel horsepower is lower due to drivetrain loss.

[@afrimademi2375]

Wow your new to cars or something 💀💀💀💀

[@BrawndoQC]

HP before crank.. HP to wheels.

[@mackdiesel8292]

Its to the wheels different then it probably gained 100 110 motor horse power

[@USDM_Jesus]

390whp is right over 500crank and probably close to 550ish torque at the crank

[@douglascrawford4791]

But I'm real sure it wasn't 60 horsepower
