    After SCT Tune, CEL still won't go off

    CAI's cause the car to go way lean. It's possible that whoever sent you the tune did not quite get the air/fuel mixture just right. It might be much better than what is was before the tune but still not just right which causes the CEL to come on. Call whoever you got the tune from and let...

    Pics and video of my 299/323 dyno run.

    What do you mean by cool down? We had fans on the engine but I think every dyno uses that. Basically if anything the car was real hot. I drove 45 min on the highway to get there and then we did 4 pulls in just under 2 hours. There was no time where the car was left sitting to purposly cool...

    Yea, as you can see in that picture the x pipe is much better than the factory h pipe.

    Well the system itself is 2-1/2" but the tips flair out to a full 4". Take a look: http://franksperformance.com/Forums/index.php?act=module&module=gallery&cmd=si&img=8

    It's also the best looking IMO. The 4" rolled steel tips look great.

    Absoultly love the sound of the Bassani's. Wouldn't trade them for any other exhaust IMO.

    Tuning Question

    Exactly, you have to buy the tuner. They mate with the car's computer and can only be used on that car. That being said you can upload any tune into the tuner. You can get a "canned" tune sent to you from a dealer online or you can go to a shop and get a custom dyno tune done. With every car...

    Exhaust Confusion

    I have Bassani and couldn't be happier with the look, sound etc. Sound great at idle. Not too loud but has a good rumble and at WOT its amazing. :hail2:

    Oct.9 Stang Mini Meet (Jersey)

    I should be there. Just had JLT CAI installed and a custom SCT dyno tune done last Sunday too. 299.1 rwhp / 323.7 rwtq. Looking forward to a nice drive out there with the 10% or so gain. :D

    What did you pay for your 05??

    I paid invoice for mine (had x-plan) back in November of last year. Had to fight the dealer tooth and nail to get the x-plan but it was a real steal of a bargain that's for sure.

    20's on the new stang? Performance vs Looks?

    IMO 20's and up are too big. 19s arent bad but I am going to go with 18x9 in the front and 18x10 out back in deep dish bullits. I think anything bigger than 18 is a waste and too much unsprung weight.

    winter = snow

    My 91 LX was a trooper last winter but that will be the last winter I drive any Mustang. Not worth the abuse on the car or myself. Plus it's really not that hard to find a decent beater for under a grand and save yourself the worries and the depreciation of the car.

    winter = snow

    Invest like $800 in a beater car, put minimal insurance on it (cost you like $600 per year) and invest in a nice winter cover for the Stang. You will save your car from salt and other winter BS and also keep your miles down.

    Anyone with a Diablo Predator Tuner/ Superchips tuner in the area?

    Yea, the tuners mate with the car's computer and can't be used on other cars for anything other than reading trouble codes.

    Tuners in Tri-State area

    Thanks for all the advise but I am gunna give Matt at Force Performance a shot. He says he will do up to a 5 hr tune (although he thinks it should only take 2 hours) for $500. That price includes the xcal and on the phone he sounded like he knew what he was talking about. I will let you all...

    Mustang Rally and Run. Matamoras, PA.

    Tuners in Tri-State area

    I found a guy in Yonkers called Force Performance. He is going to do a custom SCT tune on a dyno and I keep the Xcal2 for $500. I think it is a fair price so I am setting it up for the first weekend in October.

    Mustang Rally and Run. Matamoras, PA.

    Here are the pictures from the run. It was a good time. Not as big of a turnout as in June and we took a shorter route b/c of gas prices which in my opinion was :bs: . Anyway, it as a good time. Check out the pictures...
