4.10's

It would be My favorite mod, equal with the supercharger but the supercharger wins cause it makes that whistle sound and blow off valve

But i would get the tuner first, hate to do it that way but thats the way i did it because if you don't then your MPH will be off and your miles will increase more then you are really traveling

no it's an excellent tuner haha, you just need to update it to the newer version. I had the same issue for a day and couldn't figure out what happened. Get the update from diablosport's website and load it from the computer into the tuner

I'd get the gears first, but I personally wouldn't install them until I re-calibrated my speedometer. You can do that using a tuner, or a SpeedCal.

As for the octane question, asiansensation78 got it dead on, 93 isn't available everywhere.

Yeah you need to calibrate for the new gears with the tuner.


I left my car at home when I went to college, and a few times my mom has mentioned that my speedometer seems off... well I changed the 93 oct tune back to an 87 b/c my parents don't know I've done anything to my car, and I must have set the gear ratio back to stock when I was messing with it

Need to fix that over Thanksgiving

Hahah v6 that's hilarious. Y didn't u take u car wit u?!? Aaand y don't ur rents kno u haven't done anything to ur stang??

You can get more out of your car along with a safer tune if you're using 93.

Well a 15.7 gallon tank multiplied by how much 93 is per the gallon will give you your answer . I see the rough price in your area is around $2.80 per gallon (bastard, mine is $3.20 a gallon for 91), times 15.7 is $43.96.

You're looking at $40-$45 for a full tank of gas running from E.
