to you because your

HMUSN · February 3rd, 2007, 07:39 PM

sounds like a nice list of mods.

i wouldn't say a dyno tune is needed quite yet though.
the hp mods are only full exhaust and cai right?

than again i don't know your other hp mods
but if those are it wait on the dyno tune.. they can get expensive.

94pacecarSVT · February 3rd, 2007, 07:45 PM

the dyno takes the place of a handheld tuner.

HMUSN · February 3rd, 2007, 08:41 PM

i'd buy the tuner. an XCAL would be about perfect.

normally people don't dyno tune unless they just got a blower or a nice shot of nitrous.

you don't need a dyno tune for those mods.

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

Cricket · February 3rd, 2007, 10:45 PM

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

96Snaker · February 3rd, 2007, 11:44 PM

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.

thanks. im thinking about getting a set of eibach sport line springs while i'm at it.

HMUSN · February 4th, 2007, 07:45 AM

i understand the diffrerance between a dyno run and a dyno tune.

and i am sure you will pull more numbers than if you hadn't gotten one vs. an xcal.

to each is own. i just don't see many people getting dyno tunes for just a cai and full exhaust.

HMUSN · February 4th, 2007, 08:13 AM

oh and fyi.. i am in no way trying to be a dick.

i'm just trying to save you some cash.

02ponypackage · February 4th, 2007, 09:44 AM

U dont see the reason for a dyno tune with CAI and Exhaust because you prolly never had it done or have gotten good results.....Sniper Tuning gave me over 25rwhp with one....I think thats good for 250....also changing some other goodies

i would agree 25 rwhp for 250 bones is def. a good deal.

94pacecarSVT · February 4th, 2007, 01:45 PM

i'm thinkin about adding a throttle body but i dont know if its worth it

GreenFaleen · February 4th, 2007, 02:23 PM

cricket posted a site earlier that is selling stock ported one. 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.

itschristorres8 · February 4th, 2007, 02:53 PM

what kinda gears and t-lok are you getting?

the 28spline t-lok on the 8.8 rear end is plenty good for what you'll be running
even a the 7.5 will
but the 8.8 has t-lok already

94pacecarSVT · February 4th, 2007, 03:10 PM

yea but id ont know what gears i want. the 8.8 comes with 3.73's so i figured i would stick with them since theyre good. but how big is the difference in acceleration from 3.73 to 4.10's? if its worth it then i might just upgrade to 4.10's.

itschristorres8 · February 4th, 2007, 03:13 PM

tell me ur future mods ni'll tell u if its worth

Sa-WaitNoMustang900Turbo · February 4th, 2007, 07:42 PM

I recently saw AB's dyno run from his car after a while with only tuning with a tuner buy someone who has never seen his car and partially by him by feel alone, and all i have to say is GET IT DYNO TUNED TO BE SURE!
