    Cold Air Intake....

    Cheap and simple will not happen with regards to an intake for the S197 V6. An intake requires a tune. If there is a claim by any of the manufacturers that a tune is not required you'd be luck to get 5-7 hp out of such an "intake" So regardless of what tube and filter you get, you will need...

    Performance Tuners

    To answer the A vs. B question, There is no difference between the two hardware wise, but one can be firmware changed to be the other. The files are available via SCT web forum at sctflash.com Two firmware file sets were developed because there are now too many supported cars and an always...

    Tuner for v6 5spd?

    A tuner would do you some good. The Xcal 2 will wake the car up. It cleans up the throttle response and can increase performance or can be tuned for economy. The Xcal 2 SF would probably be best for you, you need nothing more than the user programmable one. No sense spending money on a...

    New to The Stang!!!

    Quick winter review; First, mine is a 5 Speed I bought My 06 in October and have driven it through the winter here in New York. We have been hit with a number of 3 to 12 inch snow falls and a crazy 2-3 inch ice rain/snow dump. This is THE most stable car I have ever driven in the snow and it...

    Winter and my GT

    Oh! Don't leave her like that, get out the brush! I've driven in worse conditions than that and have not needed any weight in the back of the car. If you drive smart, keep the TCS on and don't challenge the car's road sticking ability on a slick surface, you'll be just fine. If you don't...

    SCT Programming Questions

    You should just call alternative and ask them. It does depend on what SCT flash tool you get. The older versions of the 9415 hold 3 tunes, the beta also hold three tunes and have some user programmable options. The newest 9415 SF A and B units have spots for three tunes but I have to look...

    First ever 2007 GT500 to be built SOLD @ Barrett-Jackson

    Yeah, sorry for the delayed response 199. I actually watched it live so I guess that makes me the original source of the info (on Stangnet). Good thing you found a secondary source, or I may have looked like a troll given my post count... but news like this would not stay buried long anyway...

    First ever 2007 GT500 to be built SOLD @ Barrett-Jackson

    Carol and Edsel were both there auctioning the car off, not bidding on it. The proceeds went to the Carol Shelby Children’s Fund or something to that effect. As for the high price, think about it for a second. You have the first ever GT500 built on the S197. You have a car signed by both Carol...

    Anyone up north drive their stang all year?

    I know my car is only a 6 but I've got the 17 inch bullets and the P 0's so I thought I'd contribute. I am also driving mine all year round and it sits out side. It's snowing right now here in NY and I have never driven a car than felt this stable in the snow; specially a rear wheel drive...
