NGL, the thing I like most about this channel is the pure joy in the eyes of a Sarah when giving things the beans. You can't fake that. Honest host makes best content.

[@ibrockin4u]

Thank you for taking the time sharing this video, the engine cover in my eyes was the tip of the century lol, i ordered the cover with the part number you showed on the box, while pricey it fit like a glove, Now i am waiting on the tuner to be delivered, thank you for all you do.

[@stephenmoxley3004]

Cool video, Sarah. It looks like Ford Performance finally got on the bandwagon, with regard to their tuners. I have Cobb tuners for my 2.3 Mustang and Focus RS and they're very similar. I also admire your resourcefulness in fitting the engine cover to your Bronco. Keep up the great work. In other words, "screw the screws."

[@snimheachair7378]

I'm binge watching the Mr. Dos vids. It was the celica that captured my attention. I Have a JDM SS111 St202 beams and love the content of your vids. You are funny, natural and very informative, plus female also refreshing to follow a fellow female car enthusiast. ❤ from Ireland🇮🇪

The Performance Tune is well worth the expense. The increase in power is very noticeable, doesn't affect the gas mileage, and eliminates the auto off/start function.

[@davidanderson8469]

I wish Ford would issue a non-removable roof so they can give the windows actual frames. I hopped out of one and barely bumped the window and it vibrated like heck. The old Subaru's were this way. That's a really informative video Sarah.

[@michaelasalter]

we should all aspire to be as solidly knowledgeable in whatever we do...

[@Dakiraun]

That is so cool that Ford churns out their own tuners! Nice too that you can adjust for those slightly larger tires. Your Bronco is just the best looking one around as everything fits so nice with the OEM look.

[@linus4au]

That zinc work bench looks insane!

[@joerader6532]

[@McTroyd]

It’s pretty awesome there’s a factory tuning tool available, _and_ that it won’t void the warranty.

[@a73capri]

The OEM 5 year warranty is voided, but Ford Performance offers a 3 year warranty on the engine.

taking a vehicle to a dealer for maintenance is more harmful to its longevity than voiding a warranty lol

[@colethomas2309]

Apparently you can turn off the auto rev-matching if you choose. You make sure the car is on (they say it doesn't matter if engine is on), hold the brake down, then hold the cruise control "-" button until the tach lights up red and reads 8k RPM then release the cruise control "-" button, it will read 2k RPM for a couple seconds then start reading as normal, then you can release the brake pedal. To turn it back on, repeat the same steps but with the cruise control "+" button instead, and the tach will read 4k RPM as confirmation instead of 2k.

[@mrwest5552]

Because you like it Sarah, "THAT" is what matters. Sweet video.

The installation manual on the Ford Performance website has instructions on how to enable and disable rev match. Has to do with the brake pedal and the cruise control + or - buttons.

I did the Ford Performance Tune on my 2020 Explorer ST and am happy with it. On top of extra “beans” (draggy numbers not calculated yet) I’ve noticed a 1-2 mpg increase. Although I know it’s not the goal you’ll have to let us know if you see any difference.

Thank you for the factory tune info. I want that. The 2.3 is a great engine. I look forward to seeing further tuning segments. Bravo 😁

[@mortyis]

I am concerned with what modifications I can do with a new car, namely our 2.3. So a factory tune will not void the warranty, how about if I change the down pipe. Any ideas are much appreciated

[@a73capri]

I got the Ford Performance tune for my Ranger. I found that after the tune was added my transmission shifted a little bit better (Rangers have the 10 speed auto). Off the line I no longer bog and mileage increased slightly. Overall drivability is much better... It's almost fun to drive now, before it was very frustrating to drive. The engine cover does look nice. I might have to look into getting one... The 2022 Ranger didn't come with an engine cover. Love your content and am enjoying your Toyota build. :-)

That engine cover is what's up. When I got rid of the air box/engine cover on my 2.5 VW, I didn't wanna leave it newd - much like the Bronco. A Beetle engine cover solved it just the same.

[@SeishukuS12]

FYI, the tune will feel much better once the octane mod hits 1.0, 0.0 is base octane adjust... Shouldn't be an issue getting the full OAR on 91, that's the minimum recommended octane for the Ford tune (I used to have one on my Mustang)

[@SarahnTuned]

There’s a pump w/ 100 octane right down the street 🤔

[@SeishukuS12]

@@SarahnTuned a few gallons of that couldn't hurt 😉 Quick shortcut to raise the OAR: Go out on the highway, hold a low rpm in a higher gear, something that will keep you about 2500rpm... Hold part throttle and try to hold around 10psi boost for more than 10 seconds, might take a few tries to get full octane adjust, but it'll get there.
