That one works thanks! This just drops right in right? I saw on another post you had to pull a piece out with needle nose pliers? Was there a noticeable difference in the turbo lag?

Yeah you have to pull the center cap out of the original one with the blue seal as well. When you just put it together hold it together and bolted in. Shouldn't take any more than 5 to 10 minutes to install as long as you don't drop any of the bolts down into the engine LOL

I destroyed the blue seal on mine so I had to make the gfb work

Does it work? for 16 bucks it works. For $140 not so much. Now that I'm measuring boost I can tell it holds boost a little longer than the stock part. I had this on a Fiat 124 I owned that's what I found out about them. They do what they're supposed To do Hold boost a little longer in case you want to accelerate

Where did you get the "Ranger" Sill plates?

I bought the sill plates for 82 bucks from Ford. And very very easy to scratch up

The wife has a vinyl cutting machine, so i made them myself then put some 3M paint protection over them to help prevent wear.

Damn!! I wanted to buy a set for the front and rear door sills!!

I used the 3M protection spray on top of the decal, guess i'll have to wait and see how it holds up. Next time I would probably use something like in this link below. If it gets scratched up, peel off and replace.

Oh dang, they scuff up real easy?

yeah...kind of defeats the point!! Put something on to keep something else from getting scratched up then you worry about what you put on because it would tend to be scratched up at some point your hands up and say screw it I'm driving it shits going to happen. lol

@Shockm that looks awesome! It goes really well with the wheels. How do you like the sound?

All I did was move my ice-coated truck blindly in the driveway so I could get the car out of the garage!

Thanks. Sounds great, no drone at all.

Are you able to post the file for the cutting machine - that would be awesome - my wife has one too.

Lol...You're right at some point you have to stop worrying about every little thing no matter how OCD you are! Might as well just park it in the garage and look at it.

Now I have to go run my California duster over my Ranger I think I saw a spec of dust on it.

couldn’t wait til daylight. Took maybe 30-40 minutes to install. Pretty straight forward. I’ll have to get some daytime photos tomorrow.

Looks nice.. Where did you get these?

It's a silhouette file and this site is not allowing me to upload it. I'm guessing the only other option would probably be emailing it.
