Man I got a 2014 AWD eco-BOOM turbo FLEX (3rd one). Man I love it so much. It drifts in the snow like perfectly balanced. 3 rows of seats it eats up nearly ALL vehicles. Such a sleeper.
I love the SHO. They are awesome cars. I am torn between a SHO and a flex with the ecoboost and awd. Thanks for sharing man. These cars are slept on I think.
Had a 2012 sho, and now own a 2014 Ecoboost flex. Loved them both. Just the reaction I get when I pull on ppl in RT 's and SS at the light in the flex be priceless lol. Don't think you'll be disappointed with either one
I have a second gen 5spd and it would be awesome to do this to mine, but I'm also scared of blowing up that rare engine so imma just keep her naturally aspirated😅
@@cccboarding first and second gen were famous for the Yamaha V6 which could hold 700+hp with just upgraded pistons. Third gen had an unreliable V8, and the fourth gen (one in the video) were alright if you tune them right
I remember hearing that the weak point was going to be PTU and trans in the end. Do you know of any updates on these parts that will make them more livable at the higher power numbers that is developing. If you answer in the video sorry just started watching.
@@AutoRacingYT thanks I have a 14 sho that is currently hurt on motor so stock tuned waiting on those parts to become a thing before deciding to build a SHO that is not living on a prayer can’t wait for the day there is a trans PTU solution it is an awesome platform -that
@@DK-421 the info I found was that it’d be a waste of money and require a lot of custom pieces for a transmission that will probably snap from the torque unless reinforced. Which left me sad, and I read that in more than one Sho forum, though it was all older posts. Maybe someone’s done it by now and proved them wrong
Thanks for update… I have a 13 … I’m throwing a p0430 (low efficiency cat bank 2) … how should upgrade, oem, or go about my repair; if you have suggestions?
Im gonna have to report this video because you're driving up the price and letting folks in on the secret of the awesomeness of the Taurus SHO. Shame on you for making me have to save more money to buy one. I am almost offended enough to be from California... I may need a safe space 😂😂😂 👆 its just a joke Californians.. You will survive... Ish. I hope. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You really shouldn't have gutted that. I wanna call you bad names. In the end its your car, and if you are only dragging then do as you please, well, its yours do as you please regardless, lol. Nice setup under the hood, dont care for the "hood stack".. Personally I wouldve made this a true sleeper.. But its not my car! Still enjoyed the video!!!!
Damnit, you look younger than the last time I saw you😂.
I lost twenty pounds and got in shape!
Seriously lmao
Car sounds so good. It’s crazy how much power it made without an e30/40 tune…
Boost will do that to you.
Lol he really does
I love these videos. Miss the O.G. SHO but happy to see SHO vidoes again. Continues to motivate me to continue with mine
You got an OG one?
My brother w/another mother had one. 5 speed badass ride.

find an explorer because the flex is one of the worst looking creations that ever came out of dearborn
@@mcf3778 nah bro. The flex is a slick ass rectangle.
5-0 drive explorers, ill pass. I do like the ST though but for the price I'd just buy a GT..
@@masterhandwerks6592 how much power can the EcoBoost handle??
@@Wdboss504 yeah dude! If the SHO is. Sleeper than the flex is even more so, and offers more utility than the SHO.
Have you done any mods?
Nice vid and an excellent example of a Taurus Sho. Picked up a 14..great platform for performance. Well done
Man that thing is sick, I was surprised when it got some flames too
Man if the engine holds together! She is gonna rip hard!
Sounds so good!!!!! Badass build!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hell yeah bro love watching ur videos!! I'm about to get the same car in a few months I can't wait for it!!
Welcome back to videos. Wondered what happened. Awesome stuff.
Damnit it she sounds MEAN! I have a 15' but I daily drive mine I would love to make it a little quicker. Killin this build, I love it!
Coolest setup
Mustang dynos read the most accurate.
Love this content. Keep up the good work
I really love the stance and look of this. Currently working on a GT style widebody kit. Think the M3 from need for speed most wanted
That growling sound. Man its ready to gap lol
it sounds so fucking good
Single turbo is wild
Nice!!
Whats the wheel/tire setup??
I love your car! My taurus says hi 👋 shes just a limited ❤
Them rims hard bro where you get em I need some for my Taurus
Badasss whip!

Sho are twin turbo from factory
@@cccboarding I know, I was talking about the second gen, those were naturally aspirated
@@RicardoRodriguez-mh7my idk shit about the other generations lol

Saw u at import FACEOFF. Ran pretty good. Sure does look good
Impressive
my man whereve you been?
really wish they had made the 4th gen a manual transmission.
What are those turbos and where can I find them. Will they fit the Lincoln mks 2010 Ecoboost ??

Living on a prayer nothing to change so far lol

Dope.
What kind of transmission upgrades?
Question and I hope I don’t sound dumb 🤔 but do you think the 10r80 transmission would fit in the Taurus
The ford raptors have it and to my understanding they both have the same engine
What's the build list for your car? Im contemplating getting one of these but don't know how you need to pay to get close to your hp
what size wheels are on there? stock 18? and did you put a lowering kit on it?
I have a 2016 SHO I wanna start upgrading. Was gonna take it to the local Shelby performance shop and see what they wanna do. What would you recommend
I'd hop in the SHO forum, you'll find a bunch of great info there.
@@DK-421 the info I found was that it’d be a waste of money and require a lot of custom pieces for a transmission that will probably snap from the torque unless reinforced. Which left me sad, and I read that in more than one Sho forum, though it was all older posts. Maybe someone’s done it by now and proved them wrong
Isn’t this engine similar to the newer ford gt supercar
Can you send me your build? And is there not any rear exhaust exit turbo set ups?
Thanks for update… I have a 13 … I’m throwing a p0430 (low efficiency cat bank 2) … how should upgrade, oem, or go about my repair; if you have suggestions?
Probably an oxygen sensor
Did you get performance downpipes?
How reliable are these stock and tuned?
What size turbo was this??
single turbo, you’ve peaked my interest, why though does it lag more?
also i’m curious how your spark plugs look like, when did u change them last? love the build
It does lag more. It's more unique than anything else. It needs some cams to really work well but nobody makes them so far
@@AutoRacingYT Comp Cams or Todd Warren Cams can't make you some?? They do custom cams, tell them I recommended them to you..
So the tranny needs to be built for actual power? Is there anyone who builds tranny's for the sho?
Is the 13.36 afr correct from the last dyno sheet? And is that at wot?
No chance should be in the 11-12 range if on 93.

Car is a drag car only now.
@@AutoRacingYT Can I get the interior parts from ya? =)
@@AutoRacingYT All jokes aside, it's impressive. How much boost can you run on it?
@@drmalenko enough to blow the engine... he is only at 1\5th of its full capacity
@@mcf3778 a fifth... Wow. That's really awesome
Wow, you ruin vehicles lol.
