A Bigger Personality for Your Taurus SHO

The 2010-2015 Taurus SHO already hides serious performance under its subtle exterior. With the twin turbo 3.5L EcoBoost under the hood, these cars have the foundation for impressive speed and strong everyday drivability. The Phase 2 Performance Package takes that potential and pushes it further by improving how the engine breathes, how it sounds, and how the ECU manages power. By combining a high quality intake, a performance cat-back exhaust, and proven custom tuning, this package transforms the way the SHO responds when you press the throttle. Acceleration feels stronger, power builds more smoothly through the rev range, and the car gains a more aggressive personality without losing the comfort that makes it such a great daily driver.

AIRAID Cold Air Intake for Stronger Airflow

One of the easiest ways to help the EcoBoost engine make more power is by improving how it pulls in air. The AIRAID MXP cold air intake replaces the restrictive factory intake components with a design that draws in cooler outside air and feeds it to the twin turbos more efficiently. At the center of the system is AIRAID’s premium reusable air filter, which uses layered filtration media to capture contaminants while still allowing strong airflow into the intake tract. The filter sits inside a sealed air box that helps protect it from engine heat once the hood is closed. This design helps maintain consistent intake temperatures and supports stronger airflow under acceleration. With improved air delivery to the turbos, the engine responds quicker and produces more usable power throughout the RPM range.

Corsa Cat-Back Exhaust with Aggressive Tone

Once the engine can breathe better on the intake side, the Corsa Sport cat-back exhaust helps it push air out more efficiently as well. This system replaces the factory exhaust with mandrel bent tubing and performance mufflers designed to improve exhaust flow while giving the SHO a much more exciting sound. The system is built from durable 304 stainless steel and finishes with dual polished 4 inch tips that add a clean performance look at the rear of the car. Corsa’s Reflective Sound Cancellation technology keeps the exhaust tone aggressive during acceleration while minimizing unwanted drone when cruising. The result is a deep, sporty sound that adds character to the car without becoming tiring on longer drives.

SCT X4 Tuner with 5-Star Custom Performance Tunes

The final piece that ties everything together is the SCT X4 handheld tuner paired with 5-Star custom tuning. The X4 connects directly to the SHO’s OBD-II port and allows the factory ECU calibration to be replaced with performance focused tuning designed specifically for the EcoBoost platform. These custom tunes increase boost pressure while adjusting ignition timing, fuel delivery, and transmission behavior to unlock significantly more horsepower and torque. The difference is noticeable the first time you accelerate, as the car pulls harder and carries power much more confidently through the gears. The tuner itself features a bright full color display and an easy interface that makes loading tunes simple. It also works as a useful diagnostic and monitoring tool, allowing you to read trouble codes, monitor engine data, and datalog performance information whenever needed. Together, the intake, exhaust, and custom tuning create a well balanced package that brings out the full performance potential of your Taurus SHO.

How our EcoBoost Custom Tuning Works

Stage 3's 5-Star Custom Tuning Step-by-Step:
1. You place your order for 5-Star's Custom Tunes.
2. Stage 3 sends you a "blank" tuner without custom tunes.
3. You hook the tuner into your truck and pull its ECU strategy code.
4. You fill out our online tune form with the information from your truck and its strategy code.
5. If your truck has Ford's latest strategy updates, we'll forward your information over to 5-Star and get your tunes created.
6. Once 5-Star creates your tunes, you will be emailed a link to download them from our Google Drive.
7. Download 5-Star's tunes to your PC and then load them to your tuning device using SCT's Device Updater Software.
8. Now you can successfully load your 5-Star Custom Tune of choice into your SHO.

After you order this system, you are sent a "blank" tuner without any custom tunes. Please be aware that SCT's devices and software are only compatible with Microsoft Windows computers, and will not work with Mac OS X, Linux, or other operating systems. Once the tunes are successfully loaded onto the tuner, you can then start to load your tunes into your truck. If we find that your F150 is behind on its latest TSB strategy updates, we may require you to have your TSB updates performed at your dealership of choice. Read our TSB Update blog post.
