2 mini-photoshoots + new engine-bay pics

Installed the newly-received sound-pipe delete kit and went out for a drive ... along the way I found a couple of places I thought would suit the car well for some pics, the second one being a place I've seen many times before and always wanted to stop ... today I finally did.

The engine bay is as it currently sits, waiting on the blue Boss coil covers to be installed (they're waiting on a mod before they're gonna be ready for install).

I love the pics of your ford Focus engine bay....just kidding dude! I noticed that your engine oil cap recommends synthetic motor oil. I have a 2012 5.0. Should I use synthetic in my 5.0?

Lol, thanks dude.

As far as the 5w50 synthetic recommendation, that's part of the "Track Package" my car's equipped with ... it also takes 8.5 qts of oil instead of the regular 8 qts, since the Pkg also includes an oil cooler ...

Ah, that makes sense. I didn't know that was part of the track package.
