Tuning


I am thinking about doing a ton of mods to my 97 mustang gt but don't know a darn thing about tuning, how much it costs, how to do it or where todo it, etc.

Can anyone help me out here?

You can buy a handheld programmer and adjust it accordingly to the mods your adding to your car. SCT and DiabloSport are 2 popular brands. They should be under $400. each.

it's more user friendly in my opinion.

both the tuners are good honestly.

your best bet is to find out what your local speed shop uses.

the device doesn't get you a better tune.

the person tuning your car with it does.
