    Rocks sticking to tires and Chipping Paint

    My car has the same problem, I took it back to the dealer and even called Ford. They wouldn't do anything. I'm pretty disappointed by it, my last Mustang didn't chip up like this and neither has my 17 year old F150 that's lifted and been driven every winter. Mine is even chipped up in front...

    Gear Ratio Question

    If you want your car to feel faster and pull you back in the seat, get a tuner and CAI. They are around $550, but they make a big difference and is a lot easier to do then gears. American Muscle has some good CAI/programer combos.

    Uh-oh another who would win thread

    Hey guys, first time I have posted over here in the mighty 5.0 section. I've been wondering something for a little while now that you guys could answer for me. A friend at work and I want to go to the track this year and race. I'll still go even if I think I'll lose, it's all fun. But I'm...

    Things to look out for buying a used 2010GT

    Take your time and drive it when it's cold outside and see how it drives while the car is warming up.

    Crap talking from an STI owner

    I think you'd bet him. Just make sure you get a good launch, that's good your going to the track.

    Cold Air Intake

    You have two options here. Either buy another stock intake for your car and that would be the Ford Racing CAI and call it a day. Or get a CAI/tuner combo from AM. You can have your car tuned for any octane you want, the higher the octane the more power you will put out. Your car comes...

    First Ford ever

    American Muscle is pretty good to work with. Ask around here before you buy anything off a website to make sure it's good.

    Cold Air Intake

    I think its because of what material it's made out of, but I could be wrong. Either CAI would work, it's just that most aftermarket CAI's look a little better under the hood then the Ford Racing one. AM has pretty good deals on intakes and tuners though. I have a JLT on my car, I think it's a...

    Just bought an intake/programmer

    Yeah, it was 375 total. I felt like a I got a screaming deal, I'm really impressed by the gains I got. I have owned the car for 3 years, if I knew it would make me like the car this much more I would have done it a lot sooner. It actually pulls me back into the seat when I punch it, it's a whole...

    Just bought an intake/programmer

    Yeah, that's how I thought of it to. Free tunes for life only works if you bought the tuner and still have the original car you bought it for. That's it. I would be ok with that if they made that more known on their website, I'm not trying to argue their policy. I just think they need to be more...

    Just bought an intake/programmer

    Ateup, where did you find that at? I've been on their website a few times looking at programers and CAI's. All I have ever noticed is they advertise "Free tunes for life." It could have been right in front of my face and I missed it. I have always understood it as you get free tunes as long as...

    Just bought an intake/programmer

    Katamando, the tuner has an option for gears, so that will take care of that for you. Astro, I wasn't expecting free tunes. I didn't know what they would do in that case, I could see it going either way when I bought the tuner used. I thought the original tunes from AM would still work for my...

    Just bought an intake/programmer

    You wouldn't be able to do that. A tuner will only work for one car until you return it back to stock. It will only let you tune one car at a time. It also will only do 5 different cars until it locks up. If AM is going to advertise free tunes for life then they should specify that's only for...

    Just bought an intake/programmer

    Ok, here is what happened. I bought the tuner and CAI used. The guy had it on his 06 GT and bought it from AM 6 months ago, he returned his car back to stock unlocking the tuner and sold his car. So that brings us up to now. I installed everything and tried to install one of the custom tunes...

    Just bought an intake/programmer

    Well, I got excited and gave it a try thinking if it wouldn't work then it just would pull up an error and not load. I was wrong, now the car won't start and it won't let me return it back to stock. Anyone know what I can do?

    Just bought an intake/programmer

    Hey guys I just bought a intake and programer that are used. Anyway, it's from AM and Bama and the tune is for a car with an automatic and my car is a manual, is that a problem? Thanks

    Uh-oh

    Yeah, you're ok man. I think it's best if you try to stick with one kind of oil with the car just to keep it all the same. But it won't give you a problem switching like that.
