    Just bought a 2010 GT, what do I need to know?

    CAI / TUNE FYI- July 2010 5.0 Mustangs & Super Fords pg 152 has CAI test of Steeda's ProFlow CAI which requires a tune (they used a canned SCT X3) for the 2010. 1-4 HP gain up until about 5k RPM, then from 5-6.2K RPM it was 11-13 RWHP gain. It picks up a little more torque on the bottom 3-8...

    Swirling Paint

    Sorry for the delay. You would get a pad for the random orbital for each of the steps (pad for swirl remover/Ultrafina, pad for any glaze if used, and if you want to apply wax with the random orbital). Also, after every use you can wash them - I actually run them thru the washing machine in...

    Swirling Paint

    The buffer is a "Random Orbital" not a spinner like a sander and it will not remove your paint, it wont "burn" your clear coat, etc... a 6 yr old can use it. Do some research - its the best investment you can make if you want to keep your dark cars looking top notch!:)

    Swirling Paint

    1. Must have - Get a Random Orbital Buffer from Griots Garage! You can't mess up your paint with this. 2. I typically use Meguirs Swirl remover (#2) followed by Glaze (#7) with the Random Orbital, and then hand wax. This combo does a nice job.:) ******Recently I read about 3M Ultrafina...

    Low RPM Horsepower/Torque after Tune and CAI

    STANGMole - When I ordered my kit about a week after Bama went to AM I called it in and from what they told me they did not have a Torque tune nor did they even have any 89, or 92 tunes. 87, 91, 93 in Economy, Street, Performance, and Race. I got the 87 economy, and Race and Performance 91...

    Low RPM Horsepower/Torque after Tune and CAI

    I sent an email to AM regarding this and they did respond with the following: "The race tune is really only set up for the track, so the majority of the power is in the higher RPM’s, seeing as when racing, you are always in high RPM’s. It is not meant for the street. The performance tune is...

    Low RPM Horsepower/Torque after Tune and CAI

    Relatively new to this! I installed a JLT CAI and AM/Bama 91 Race tune recently on 05 GT Vert Automatic. Overall car feels quicker, shifts a lot firmer, etc.. But I've noticed under normal around town driving the HP/Torque under 3500 RPM's or so feels less (like accelerating out of a 90...

    What color/style of rim looks best on Candy Apple Red Mustangs?

    I just got a couple weeks ago the "Sport Muscle Tach" 18" Chrome rims wrapped with Bridgestone RE760 (255/45's) and they look awesome! You can view on your car thru Tire Rack - Your performance experts for tires and wheels. I don't have any pics yet but they look great especially with the red...

    Advice on Tuner for GT with Automatic Transmission

    My experience with other Automatics including my past C5 Corvette dropped into 1st up until about 35mph. With the 3.31 gearing in the Mustang Auto 30 mph is only about 4000 RPM's. I think if i punch it down at 50 mph it drops to 2nd and is actually at a higher RPM. My main question though...

    Advice on Tuner for GT with Automatic Transmission

    Update on Auto GT Tune Advice I pulled the GT out a week ago from storage and put on new 18" Sport Muscle Tach Chrome rims (they look great) on with new 255 Bridgestone RE760's - Great Tire and Rim combo and now I have a tire that actually hooks. I just installed a JLT CAI and American...

    Advice on Tuner for GT with Automatic Transmission

    Thank for everyone that has replied so far:D To sum up - Tires only chirp on shift at WOT, and overall the firmess of shifts are a good thing! Also, 4.10 seem to be the gear of choice for the Auto (not sure if i will pull that trigger or not this year). Also had positive comments about...

    Advice on Tuner for GT with Automatic Transmission

    I am looking for feedback based on actual experience for those of you who have a GT with Automatic Transmission and have added a Tune and CAI. I picked up an 05 vert in November (I'm in Minnesota) and looking at getting it ready for spring and have been reading a lot of the past threads on...
