Will have to look in the manual. Did see a extra insert in the pack that had the oil filter part # so maybe it is on the same insert will look tomorrow when I go out

That's funny, but no. I read an article a while back where Ford said they made the turbos small so the turbo lag would be smaller. Since I only have a rudimentary understanding of how a turbo works (exhaust goes in turns an air pump which blows air into the intake), it sounded good to me.

yes that is how they get the HP and TQ #'s they are down at low RPM.

of coarse my Bike wont start making boost till 5000 Rpm And pump 20psi up to 11000 rpm And it makes more HP and TQ than my truck

wow - very, very nice color combo - was unsure about the grille but that looks awesome! and the 20's look great as well - I maybe should have pulled the trigger on those as well...maybe aftermarket 20's will do.

6.2 qts? where do they sell a .2 bottle? thought it was inconvenient with my 05 5.4 needing 7 qts when 6 or 12 come in a case.

So you put 6 quarts in and leave it down 0.2 quarts. As long as it's between the ADD and FULL lines on the stick it's fine.
