My New Beauty To A Beast...

shsustang · November 21st, 2007, 03:42 AM

OK i am a PROUD owner of a new alloy metallic auto gt. i have a little money to spend on mods. i want to stay n/a and from what i have seen from these threads a cia/tune seems to be the way to start off. Just wondering if it is really the night and day difference that i want for the money???

ps. i have always been a GM man but you guys on these forums sold me on the s197 stang!

C&L intake and BAMACHIPS or BRENSPEED tune, that is a good way to start

welcome to moddedmustangs

leebunnyz · November 21st, 2007, 03:51 AM

Or JLT CAI. it gets the same numbers as a C&L but is cheaper.

shsustang · November 21st, 2007, 03:53 AM

i have heard BAMA has better auto tunes. is this true?

05mustang_kb_charged · November 21st, 2007, 03:56 AM

lee what are ball park #s i can expect to gain in the rwh and 1/4 mile?

leebunnyz · November 21st, 2007, 04:32 AM

CAI and tune will give your round 18-20whp. probably shave .1-.2 seconds off your 1/4mile, depending on how good you can drive.

psycho bob · November 21st, 2007, 04:40 AM

put the CAI and tune with some lowers and upper and you should be mid 13's. this will be under a grand total. yes the cai and tune will be a very very large difference. you'll grin all over again. that is if you wait till the initial grin wears off.

shsustang · November 21st, 2007, 04:41 AM

thanx 4 tha help i will probably order the jlt/xcal from bama soon

psycho bob · November 21st, 2007, 04:44 AM

that's a good idea. i had very good service from doug. he is sometimes a little slow at answering emails, but he will answer. i'd say usually within a few days max. if i were you make sure you get at the very least the race tune. if you travel a lot you might consider getting one of them in the 91 octane tune unless that is all you have there anyway

shsustang · November 21st, 2007, 04:50 AM

bob im a texas man to so i will be runnin 93

06RedfireGT · November 21st, 2007, 12:09 PM

I wouldn't run the race tune with an auto because Doug says that just being gentle with the gas could bark the tires. I would get a 93 torque and performance tune, then the 93 race for the strip.
