So I just bought my wife an '09 SEL.
Figured I would log in here and get some tips, as I am a heavy modder.
Just some background, Im a Chev guy, always have been. The Edge was just the best vehicle available when we started looking. So far, been really impressed with it. Ford seems to really be doing their homework.
So, Black 09, going to need a few tips. Done a little searching already, but couldnt find some answers.
Audio- Installing Infinity's all around. Keep the stock unit as the wife likes the built in 6 disc. But, I need to hide a 10" sub somewhere.
Exterior- Going to be blacking it out. Anyone have some good ideas on nice grilles that can be powder coated?
Rims- Those stock salad spinners have to go. Will have to check out some members pictures for some ideas.
Brakes- Probably my biggest issue. They suck. So if anyone here has upgraded, please let me know.
Engine/Tranny- This trans feels similar to an old slushbox. The TC seems finicky and while the shifts are smooth, they can also feel slow under load. Different oil perhaps? And is there any sort of tuning for the engine? Will be doing the exhaust shortly, so wouldnt mind tweaking
the engine for a little more power. Unless of course bad things happen.
Suspension- Not sure here. Wouldnt mind a little more reactive ride. Again, any tips?
That my intro, I look forward to learning a lot here and personalizing my the wifes ride.
