You would need a tune because when you change the rear gear ratio in a mustang you need to compensate because the computer gets jacked from its normal parameters. you can do this (depending on year) with one of three things, a speedo gear, a speedcal, or a TUNER.

BDS. If you are unsure of why someone posted something, feel free to PM ME. He is correct. ( and yes I noticed your edit. )

Don't edit your posts. Ask, then post.

Another most Noobious question.....How does a tuner work.....I've seen them on am but not really sure how they work.

HMUSN · May 20th, 2009, 09:50 PM

They adjust your computers parameters.
fuel, timing, spark, rev limiter, ect..
they basically chance the computer to your mods and needs.

think of gears as a torque mutiplier. he also doesnt have a tuner so he would have to buy one to tune after every mod. he could get gears installed and his speedo fixed in the same shop and it would make more of a difference then a cai.

OP if you dont like the way it sounds just buy some new mufflers and get them welded in. it shouldnt be very expensive. as for a shop around here... idk lol i just moved to the dallas area about 3 weeks ago. ill talk to my friend that has lived here for a while and see what he says. if he knows any ill post them up.

so again on the cat note, i dont know how it is in the rest of the states but i dont know anyone in Texas that has been pulled over for noise in a sixxer, with no cats its still not as loud as a GT with high flows, so i think its kind of a moot point. SO yes it is technically illegal, but while your in TX you really dont need to worry about it. OR to sidestep all problems completely just get high flow cats

Hello,
You've just met somebody who has gotten pulled over for noise in a 6er, it was my fault though.

Cop was funny as hell, and kept me talking about cars for like 45min until he got a call on his radio. No ticket , warning was "once you get to where your going, mind putting the cutouts back on this thing"

dschack · May 21st, 2009, 01:06 PM

lol ok i stand corrected haha, so if you cam and have cut outs you have a chance apparently lmao
