My name is Gabriel and I just got my new 2012 v6. I am looking for any information in the tuning department. I want to start from the ground up exhaust being the first part to upgrade. Hit me up with any info you guys may have.

I would start with our intake and tuner first. We've seen gains up to 20HP and 30 ft/lbs TQ. Let me know if I can help you get that.My name is Gabriel and I just got my new 2012 v6.

You won't find much in the way of exhaust that's going to give you great gains on teh V6. The OEM exhaust system is pretty good at what it does.
There are some tuning packages out that claim 20+ HP and go for a mint of cash.
IMO, your money would be better spent and give you more performance by putting wheels, caster/camber plates, shocks, and a lowering kit onto the car.
That's just me though...
SteedaBrandon What would you suggest as far as intake and tuners are concerned?
Our Steeda cold air intake and an SCT X3 tuner. Why our cold air intake? We make high-quality parts. Our parts are manufactured under ISO 9001:2008 standards, which is a quality inspection certification stating we consistently make high-quality parts. Our parts are also made in the USA (not like that cheap made-in-China junk that doesn't perform as well and isn't as durable). We also have a close relationship with Ford via their Technology Transfer Program.@ steedabrandon What would you suggest as far as intake and tuners are concerned?

It's more than a claim. Here's one example.
also I heard a rumor that the driveshaft has to be replaced on the v6 when a supercharger is installed. Is there any truth to that?
I also heard the driveshaft breaks when driving in excess of 130MPH
HorsePower03 How do I install mods that are ok with my warranty? Will the dealer install aftermarket parts and still service my ride?
