I felt the same way, great people to work with. I probably have 2500 miles on mine now. It feels so much better than stock. Part of me wants to try the street bushing again but I am not going to.
Im not sure on these. Some shocks can be done wheels down, others cant. Are the springs new too? Might take 1000 miles to settle. And if you lower it you need an alignment again. It will throw everything off a bit.
I will say the escape one is on my list. Regardless of only impacting 2020s so far. Its a bad place to mount it. And at 130k I am probably due some replacement pulleys either way.

These wastegates are electric so it should be tunable with a custom tune.
what are you hoping to get out of it? Faster release, longer hold for more boost? Past 22 psi the stock turbo really falls out of its efficiency range anyway.
Put it on the front of the ac condenser. There is room there. Air flow is air flow when you are sitting still. I might do this just for the heck of it. Would be nice to test out in traffic when it is 90+ outside.
Yours looks brand spanking new. When I seen your last picture I thought you bought a brand new shaft from ford and took it apart already. Mine was definitely worn out like Blue Streaks there.
What if you just pop an electric fan in front behind the grill with a dash switch and a temp probe. Like the old hot rods would do for parades and traffic. Have it trigger at 200 degrees. Would only come on while sitting. But you could have a manual switch too for those time you need it.
I had the over heating issue at idle once. Noticed the radiator was clogged. Never happened again. I would like electric fans tho, so they kick on at certain temps no matter what. Also nice gauges, mine is in the same spot.
