    Not an upgrade, just new aftermarket rotors and new factory calipers.

    I think he is referencing the rear axle answering question asked in Post 30, if I'm wrong he'll speak up & correct me.

    You are correct, Sir!

    The front is the upgrade, the rear is all factory parts.

    Thanks my friend!

    Hey...does anyone know how to adjust the idle on our cars? I’m sitting at 650rpm and I want to go up to around 800-850

    In the tune. Also, check the IAC, it may need cleaning or replacing.

    Having it much over 750/800 in drive honestly makes these boats a bit harder to stop.

    I agree, however my idle is just a bit too low...750 would be a huge improvement over 650. BTW I can't find the area in Mo's tune within my programmer to change the idle...??

    Marty has to make that option available.
    You "feel" the difference because you want to "feel" the difference. Since you just spent money on the upgrade you "have" to feel the difference

    I'm looking to eliminate the double pump process I have to follow right now to get the pedal hard

    In my experience he leaves everything locked unless you specifically request otherwise.

    Big couple of days for this Marauder resurrection thread! Yesterday I picked up a new hood, left and right fenders, and a roof panel to replace on the Marauder. Both fenders and hood currently installed were aftermarket. The hood was rusted on the underside and the roof looked like it had the mumps, measles and chickenpox at the same time! I had to drive to Lakeland, FL (Lakeland Ford) to the parts dealer to get some great prices without shipping charges! I had to pick up a UHaul to transport that HUGE hood...it was NOT fitting in the back of my Ford Excursion, Ha! $46 to rent a 8' trailer? No problem!

    OEM Ford Hood: $489.20
    OEM Ford Fenders: $224.50
    OEM Roof Panel:$610.41

    The body shop manager was super pumped when I showed up with OEM Ford parts...he said this project just got a bunch easier for his team...lol! It seemed like every panel on my car has some form of weird dent or imperfection. He is going to do BASF Jet Black and 4-5 coats of clear with nice long setting times. I will also be replacing all trim pieces (That are replaceable) and weatherstripping so no air leaks and ugly faded trim. Well...my baby is in the capable hands of the Classi Autobody crew...now what am I going to do?

    Update: Body work has begun! With a lot of tourists in Florida after the Covid Mess started to wane, the body shop has actually been on a 3 week wait for repairs..(130% capacity). Last year at this time they were at 71% and were feeling stressed...lol!

    New roof skin is on and looks good...

    New hood is on and getting body panels aligned. Bumper covers are getting prepped...we should be in color in a week!
