    Performance tunes for 2011 5.0 (automatic)

    I am in the market for a performance tune for my 2011 Mustang GT/CS (automatic). I want the best tune that will lower my existing 1/4 mile time of 12.794 sec. I used BamaChips in the past for my 4.6 GT and loved their race tune for the automatic. However, I have read that Brenspeed tunes seem to...

    Mustang GT optimized for drag racing

    I have seen info on the Roush Drag Pack on a Mustang GT that supposedly gets high 11s in the 1/4 mile. So if I were going to utilize Ford Racing Performance parts on my 2007 Automatic to create a faster car in the 1/4 mile without adversely affecting daily driveability, what should I use...

    Ford Racing Parts 113mm CAI

    On the Ford Performance Parts website, they list a 113mm CAI for 2005-2007 SVT Mustangs. I wondered if this could be used on a Mustang GT or if this is specifically for the GT500.

    Road & Track tests the 2008 Shelby Super Snake

    http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?section_id=3&article_id=6056 Seems kind of suspect that a 605 hp car only did a 4.4 sec 0-60 and a 1/4 mile of 12.5 seconds, when the 500 hp GT500 did 4.6 and 12.8. Three tenths of a second faster than the 500 hp GT500 in the 1/4 mile? A 100...

    GT emblem, is it bolted on? Powered By Ford emblems.

    Is the GT emblem on the 2005+ GTs a bolt on or adhesive emblem? I am thinking about putting Powered By Ford emblems like on the Shelby GT in its place and wondered how to do this. Also, how to you get these "Powered By Ford" emblems. Someone said if you had a VIN # from an actual Shelby GT...

    ? Automatic, sounds noisy when shifting into reverse

    Those with automatics, does your GT sound noisy when you shift into reverse? Mine seems to sound noiser than when I first got the car and it seems to be less smooth of a transition. Especially when I am parked somewhat on an incline. I am concerned, could this be a gear problem?

    Opps! Bamachips tuner question

    I installed a Bamachips race file tonight on my 2007 stang using an SCT handheld. But I couldn't figure out how to return to the original stock file. I think I forgot to save the stock file before installing this. I previsously had stored a stock file on my Superchips tuner and thought I could...

    Weight of new 2007 Mustang GT automatic

    Does anyone know the exact weight of a 2007 Mustang GT automatic? If I remember what I read correctly somewhere on the Net, the 2007 Mustang GT is heavier than the 2005-06 models, something to do weight added with an suspension upgrade. Plus, an automatic is a little heavier than a manual. I...

    My 2007 Mustang GT (automatic) turned 13.682 tonite

    :lol: @102.29mph. Crap, I ran against a highly modded Trans-Am, cut a better RT but lost by a whisker. Two words: automatic. If I would have had a manual, I could squeezed out more and won. Here is a link to the video on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FSxYM-brjI

    My best ET, what next?

    I took my new 2007 Mustang GT (automatic) out to the drag strip this past week with no prior drag racing experience (other than the street variety). I ran consistent 13.8s and 13.9s the first day and 13.9s and low 14.0s in the second outing. The track seemed kind of slippery at night and the...

    I am getting Corsa A/B exhaust installed on my 2007 Mustang GT tomorrow and it has already been Superchips retuned. Will I have to program it for the Corsa exhaust?
