    '13 Sport - Hood Vinyl and DRL's

    Thanks for the mounting info. My lights will be here Tuesday, so 3m double sided tape should work nicely.

    Radar detector tips/ suggestions?

    Valentine 1 for me. Have used it for over 10 years and "knock on wood" never had a ticket. It has saved my butt many times! If you read all about it on the Valentine 1 page and research the forums, very few people dislike them.

    '13 Sport - Hood Vinyl and DRL's

    Nice looking Sport you have there. I am going to add LED DRL's similar to yours and wondered if you would share how you mounted them. Thanks for your help.

    Cold Air Intake (CAI) Discussion

    I put baby powder on the seal, and as I thought, no marks were left on the hood. It looks like there is a 1" - 1 1/2" gap between the weatherstripping and the hood, so plenty of hot air is getting in from the heat of the engine. I just removed my Airaid and went back to the stock air box, it...

    Cold Air Intake (CAI) Discussion

    I have the Airaid on my Sport. It has been on for about 500 miles and other than a little more throttle noise when getting on it, it's not much different than stock. I do hear a sound that sounds like a flapper opening and closing (a popping sound might describe it better) when accelerating...

    T-1000, you'll probably get an e-mail back from them. I sent an e-mail to them last week and they sent me a Pay Pal invoice, I sent them the payment, and just received shipping confirmation today saying it's on the way.

    Airaid CAI

    Great, thank you. I heard if you apply baby power to the seal, then close the hood, you should be able to tell if you have a good seal. Look forward to hearing the results. Thanks.

    Airaid CAI

    Hi gkviper192, nice mod. Can you please tell me if the hood seals down on the gasket of the Airaid box or is there a gap and hot air from the engine reaches the filter?

    2014 Explorer Limited 4X4 ordered 7/6/13

    I ordered my Red Sport on 6-4-13 and received my VIN on 6-28-13. I checked with Ford Customer Service today and they said my vehicle does not have a build date yet, but does have an estimated ETA of 8-14-13 ;). Based on these dates it's taking about 10 weeks from order date to delivery.

    Cold Air Intake (CAI) Discussion

    Hi Drwalker02, Knowing that the Airaid is designed for the Taurus SHO, does the hood of the Sport seal down tight against he weather stripping on top of the air box like it is designed to do on the Taurus?

    Question for 2013 Explorer Sport Owners

    Blue Raptor, I do agree nothing turns a head like a Raptor :D. I'm changing because it's time to downsize a little :( . So I drove my daughters Explorer Limited for several days and found that I liked it's size, did some researched on the Sport and test drove one. I've always had the largest...
