remember to get a speedcal or a speedo ring because the tuner can not correct your speedo with the new gears. Thats only 99+

just remember...
a tuner you can re-use when you get more mods.

a dyno tune isnt just to see how much hp and torque you have. and you cant do the things with a handheld that you can do with a dyno. with a handheld you will be tuning things based on how it feels. a dyno will tune everything to where it is safe and is not harming your vehicle. it will also make sure your cars air/fuel ratios are safe. i had a detailed conversation with one of the guys who runs custom performance . i think he might know what he's talking about. But none-the-less, thanks for your opinion.

That way you want have to mess the the manifold. Nice mod list man. When you get the work done if it isn't to much trouble. Would you mind asking how much the shop charges for gear and t-lok install on a 2000 v6 stang I am near Charlotte and am trying to get an array on quotes. __________________ Scion Tc-strup racing header, CAI, Ground Kit, NOS 100shot, Custom suspension, Doc.
