    Mustang= Good handling???

    Then the M3 owners in Orange county really suck. My rear sway bar is thicker than the Pony Package sway bar by almost 1/2 inch and the front lower control arm brace with the strut tower brace and a front sway bar that is more than 1/2 inch thicker than stock can really improve the handling, but...

    Mustang= Good handling???

    I have put on some really good suspensions parts for my 05 V6 Convertible mustang. I started with a Hellwig rear sway bar that was a group buy from this forum. Then I got a GT take off front sway bar at Saleen. Then I put on a BMR strut tower brace and front control arm brace. I can really...

    Bama Chips

    Well I got back from my trip but I was not that impressed with my first tunes from Bama Chips. After writting to them about how their tune performed and giving them more info on what it is that I wanted from my tunes they e-mailed me a new tune. This tune was better. I could spin the tires a...

    Bama Chips

    I know our cars are fast but Lakewood is a little farther than 20 mins from Irvine. Still I work in DownTown LA so maybe I can stop on the way home. :SNSign:

    How fast have you got your v6?

    I just hit 120 with my 2005 4.0 V6 and a good Dyno tune and no other engine mods. I could say I went faster but the speedo only goes to 120 and I had alot more left in the throtle. I would say that if you beef up your suspen you could safely go close to 150 or better. I am putting in H&R...

    How fast have you got your v6?

    I just made it to 120 with plenty left to go but the speedo only goes to 120. I would say that 150 or better is possible with a lightly modifyed 4.0. :SNSign:

    Bama Chips

    I am not getting an xcal2 yet. I am going to see if I like the tunes that Bama Chips writes for my Predator. If I like them better than my Predator tunes then I might switch back to the xcal2 so that I can also get tunes from Alternative and other great xcal2 tuner companies. I had seen soo...

    Bama Chips

    I have decided to give the guys at Bama Chips a try at creating a custom tune for my 2005 V6 using my Predator and their xcal2 tunes. I will put the Bama tune to a road test after Christmas when I take my holiday vacation. I am driving from Irvine CA. in Orange County to Fresno CA in Central...

    SCT VS Predator

    I just heard that Bama Chips now uses the Predator tuner as well as the xcal2. I am going to see if I can buy one of their tunes for my predator and see if I was wrong about my old SCT xcal2. I have never seen so many mustang owners with nothing but good things to say about an after market...

    Under drive pullys What is the best

    So you think that I would get the same HP out of the Alt pulley? You mentioned problems any specific I should know about if i do go with the ASP? I ask because my mechanic is pushing the ASP. I just want a reliable way of making a couple extra HP without tearing my car apart.

    SCT VS Predator

    If you read the policy on mfg warranties in the Diablo sport Predator manul it says that their product will not void any mfg warranties if you use either their stock tunes or get custom tunes from a CMR dealer on their list. They do have you read a disclaimer and press an accept or deny buttom...

    SCT VS Predator

    The way the stock tunes work for the Predator was explained to me as this. 1. When you plug the tuner in to your cars port it will read the Factory settings and make a copy of them and save it as your original stock tune. 2. The tuner then takes the information that it just downloaded from...

    SCT VS Predator

    I have seen alot of people ask what is the best solution to get performance out of their new mustang. Almost always a flash tuner like SCT xcal2 or Diablo Sport Predator have been mentioned. I have personally used both now and I do have some opinions. With out a doubt both of these tuners are...
