I appreciate this video! I just got a 2020 EcoBoost a week ago and I’m looking into legit mods, thanks man!

[@M4B21S88]

Naerel James first mod : intercooler! Just make sure youre pumping 93 octane , if by doing so you feel its not fast enough, get tune from a reputable tuner. And deff another must is tire mod! Idk about your car but the stock all season pirellis P zeros in my ‘16 were not the best for traction.. switched to summer tires: first to firehawks indy 500 👌 now im using Ohtsu fp8000, highly recommend for the $$$

[@JBWHITEGT]

Get You a cobb tuner and what ever bolt ons you want especially a intercooler, race intercooler trust me( the big one) and go with PD tuning. You will not be disappointed. These guys have tuned my car and its way better than the cobb preloaded tunes. The cobb preloaded tunes my gas milage went down. With PD tuning my gas milage went back up to 32mpgs and its much faster.

[@fordracing5oh]

Make your first mod turbo smart actuator, then down pipe

[@dr3nch_g0d52]

My first mods in my 2018 10speed was a downpipe and a cobb turboback exhaust, it was very easy to install, im planning on getting a wastegate actuator, oil catch can, and real tires next, and a intercooler then tune

I do most of my own maintenance a lot of people. Great video I use synthetic oil cheaper to do at home. Use approved SN plus oil for turbos. Higher flash point than conventional.

[@kaiserkonig981]

Amazon sells great priced amazon basics synthetic oil. Highly recommend it.

[@stephanym4087]

Just bought a 2019 ecoboost. Was starting to get worried with all these videos of people blowing their engines and other problems. Planning on keeping it stock and not modifying it.

[@matthewberggren5038]

Going ecoboom is honestly not that common. It’s idiots pushing their stock block past what it can handle

[@dr3nch_g0d52]

U can still build the motor to not go boom

[@dr3nch_g0d52]

Your missing out on a lot if u don't mod the engine.

[@AimHere]

Get the Ford performance power pack ( tune and cold air intake) It really wakes the car up. Honestly the car should have came stock from factory with the power pack pre installed. For under 1k parts and labor it is more then worth it to get more power and not lose much reliability. I have had the power pack installed on my 2017 ecoboost since I bought it new back in late 2016, Its going on 5 years now and I have had no issues with the engine being tuned (with ford parts and by ford dealer). do not leave those power gains on the table. DO IT! you will not regret it.

[@steve293]

Lol no that statement is real

[@steverod5565]

I liked the video, and would like to add something, paint protection. I'm thinking about a new Ecoboost in Grabber Lime Green with the blackout package. The first thing I would do is stripe it and or wrap it the way I like, then ceramic coat it.

[@steve293]

Its not a Japanese engine. Its a crappy engine. I never thought in my life I'd ever say this but when I was stationed in South Korea I owned 2014 Hyundai accent. That thing didn't give me a single issue. The 6 years I was there went ahead and purchased a Ford F-150 (had f150s my whole life)n and wtf this piece of garbage. Add this 1 The fact that the workers gave up their own pension plans to save the company back in '08 only to get screwed over. Since there is no difference about politics because seriously right now there is something very rotten in this corporate driven economy.

[@nobody_there_]

Hey, hello. Have you heard about an oil lick on thos ecoboots mustang engines ???

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Happens to a select few mustangs mostly 2015 model years

[@icucode]

I thought semi synthetic in car engines was abandoned ages ago 😄

[@codyholladay1044]

Enjoy your point of views, very logical. Just bought a 16 Ecoboost stock and am trusting your input more than most as Im trying to decide where to go with it 👍

Congratulations on your new ride

[@alanvalenzuela1757]

How many miles did it have when you purchased it?

[@PedroPerez-kw8pf]

I have an eco boost & I live in Merced Ca here it gets really cold during the winter ( 13 degrees) during the summer it gets reallllly hot (100+ degrees) but my question is, does your oil temperature needle tilt a lot of hot, when it’s hot but when you turn on The AC it goes back to normal regardless of the temperature outside??

[@CoyoteDAworld]

Maybe the fan help cool the engine temps but not like day and night difference tho

[@joeanderson444]

While the 2.0 Ford EcoBoost engine and its later 2.3 variant share a cylinder block with the L3-VDT and are derived from the Mazda L architecture, little else is shared between the EcoBoost and L3-VDT and they should not be confused with one another. The EcoBoost engines have different turbochargers, Ford-designed heads, different direct injection systems along with featuring Ford's Ti-VCT variable valve timing system instead of Mazda's S-VT.

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Thanks for your input

[@andy_182]

is Ecoboom a real thing

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Yes it is But only on certain model year

[@Shoosh577]

I got mine last month it blew up the first week it had 75k miles then got a new motor blew up 2weeks later

[@Boosted_aj]

Sounds like it needs driver mod.

[@samgarcia7232]

With the 3 simple mods you name will it lower the mpg or keep it the same?

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Keep it the same

[@pgezy3199]

I blew my motor at 97k

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Oh wow Sorry to hear that Did you replace the engine or got rid of the car?

[@camfs9816]

I have a 2016 ecoboost mustang and have modded it a little bit and it’s starting to give me some problems. Added a catless charged down pipe with a turbo smart blow off value with upgraded intercooler and intake with a Cobb tuner. When I go to floor it it’s like it’s low on gas the engine keeps cutting out but after awhile of doing it it stop sputtering any help? I use premium gas as well for the tuner

[@ElvisCarReviews]

You tuned your car before or after the mods? And was it a dyno tune or a flash tune?

[@camfs9816]

@@ElvisCarReviews was after the mods did the tune last and was a flash. Pluged it in and downloaded the stage 2 made sure I had what I needed to get it. I was seeing others saying it could be the low fuel pressure sensor?

[@ElvisCarReviews]

@@camfs9816 could be yes

[@safdaralli2567]

My daughter just bought a 2016 two days ago...so I started looking at youtube videos to get familiar with the vehicle..one of the videos I ran across is about the low side fuel pressure sensor (the new correct part #.. BU5Z-9F972-B) the symptoms you describe.. low on gas the engine keeps cutting out...is exactly what some owners describe..which was fixed after replacing that sensor...I bought one at the Ford dealership..putting it on in the morning..I know this reply is coming a year later but if you're still having the issue..you might wanna look at some videos regarding that fuel pressure sensor. Good luck.

[@al3amri_om657]

Can I still use bigger tires in the back?

Yes

[@josebriones7028]

You gave some useful tips but unfortunately my experience has been true to all the Ecoboost rumors. I had 60k miles it's my daily driver, no mods, synthetic oil with 93 octane never abused. One day doing 15 mph in traffic the Ecoboom happened. The engine block had a hole blown out BOTH sides. 4k to replace...

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Sorry to hear about that, what year was your Ecoboost?

[@slay22497]

@@ElvisCarReviews 2015, She's back up and running. Just put in a CAI and an intercooler today. Plus changed the spark plugs and coils. Praying it doesn't happen again.

[@ElvisCarReviews]

@@slay22497 2015 is the year with the most faulty engine claims, that’s why I always ask my viewers to stay away from that year, Ford did fix the issue In 2016 although never acknowledged there was a problem with some of the 2015 Ecoboost engines. Just stay on top of your maintenance and you’ll enjoy your baby for many more miles to come

you failed on this video because you forget to mention the most important thing and it's how to properly maintain your 10 speed automatic transmission 🤦‍♂️

Lmao there's nothing you do to maintain the transmission. Read the manual and change the trans fluid at the recommended intervals. It's an automatic transmission lmaooo not sure you what you expected him to say about that.

[@dakotajones8010]

Some Ebay parts are fine exhaust, intercooler, intakes. Friend put an $80 intake on his 6.1 hemi better than all the $200+ intakes as it is a true cold air most Ebay parts are 1 to 1 clones of better products

[@4touchdowns1game29]

Lol funny you say that. I see all these people throwing out huge numbers for parts setups on eb mustangs. I'm their lists they will have like 400 dollar downpipes and 400 dollar intakes. My car already had an expensive intake but a filter would be just fine. My mishi clone intercooler for example was 225 vs 500 for the mishi branded. My catless downpipe was also an ebay special costing me like 124 vs 250 to 300 for name brand.

[@Boosted_aj]

@@4touchdowns1game29 see there’s no reason to buy a 200 dollar intake. Or a 300 dollar strut bar. But don’t cheap out on very important mods like intercooler. Be careful

Got my 2017 Ecoboost Premium with 42k miles on it like 3 weeks ago and this will be of massive help. I just have one question, mine came with Remus Sport exhaust and Remus Powerizer, is it safe for the engine since it says it boosts power up to 20%? It is plug and play module so I can unplug it if its not safe for the engine..

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Is the car tuned ?

[@Big__Thicc]

@@ElvisCarReviews Nope, it just has the Remus Powerizer plugged in
