he must really like his tuner.

but yes.. that's the way to do it man.
get a tuner, they run around $380.00

itschristorres8 · November 13th, 2007, 04:30 PM

a tuner is w/e
honestly with out a laptop or a/f adjusting isnt really benificial or your still playing with fire kinda.
for bolt on yea its good ok
after nitrous or s/c or turbo its more like here you go to get to the dyno

unless you have preloaded tunes...even then it wont touch a dyno which again its better for bolt ons

HMUSN · November 13th, 2007, 04:31 PM

^ agreed.

but for basic bolt on cars to heavy bolt on cars I would recommend the tuner and a wide band 02 set up

ive got a lean and rich code on my car lol

i know the sensors are fine because on the dyno my a/f was rich but decent

anyway i blame the tuner. and myself for waiting to get a dyno so long

it's the tune not the tuner

I hope you got more than new tires. Just curious, why do you want to take your Mustang over 115? Is it for the track?

sarcasm. Im not a big believer in taking a stock Mustang on the street to 115 for more than one reason.

itschristorres8 · November 14th, 2007, 05:13 PM

A race last 1/8th of a mile or 1/4th of a mile, anything after that is a p*ssing contest. (ricers typically do that... we call it the ricer fly buy!)
