    Another big announcement for 2011-12 owners from Steeda - coming soon

    Sweet! Lets hear a sound clip!! Be sure to post when the tune is ready for the auto's... might be good time to get a Steeda CAI and maybe get the cammed sound added into the new tune.

    How do you like your mustang so far?

    Not a V6, and not a manual... but a great car. The fit and finish of the Stang is really good and its fun to drive. I would buy it all over again...

    2012 5.0....CAI or Drop-In???

    Glad I could help. Steeda is a fine company and the SCT is a cool device. Let me know if you need any help with loading the tune.

    Where are mustangs built?

    Yeah... I'm pretty sure the window sticker showed my '11 GT is made from 65% North American content (North America is not exactly the US). My 08 Tundra has 80% North American content... Go figure.

    2012 5.0....CAI or Drop-In???

    Tunes are very easy to install. Steeda will load the SCT device with the custom tunes before they ship it. All you do is plug it into the OBD2 connector and follow the directions (super simple)... takes about 15 minutes for it to download/upload. They can write a tune for whatever octane you...

    Can i reuse my tpms sensors?

    Yep... you can reuse them. Just get new valve stems from your Ford dealer, the regular valve stems wouldn't work (according to the tire shop that installed my aftermarket rims).

    Thinking about trading for a 5.0

    Do you live in STL? Reason I ask is, I bought mine from Expressway Ford just outside of Evansville, IN.... which isn't far from STL. Very nice folks! They didn't have what I wanted, the closest car that had everything we wanted was in Atlanta, GA.... they drove down and picked it up and no...

    Thinking about trading for a 5.0

    My auto is holding up fine. Its a real lazy tranny with the stock tune, but load a Steeda tune and she'll get real sideways, real quick on the 1-2 shift. When conditions are perfect, it will squeak the 2-3 shift with 3.15 gears. From what I understand, adding 3.73's to an auto Stang will turn...

    Rear Spoiler

    Exactly... You don't want to burn the glue off, just a little heat to relax it.

    Rear Spoiler

    When I changed my spoiler, I used a heat gun to soften up the glue. Then I pulled up on the edge and used an old credit card to cut through the glue. Once the spoiler was off (took awhile), I reheated the remaining glue and used my thumb to ball it up and then it pulled off pretty easy. Ford...

    Performance tunes. Do you keep them installed when daily driving?

    Well... ours isn't a daily driver, but it isn't abused or raced everytime it leaves the garage. With that said, yes, the 92 oct Steeda tune is loaded up and not coming out unless I need some work done at the dealership. Not sure about your tune, but its like driving a different car with it...

    Steeda vs Bama custom tunes

    Steeda vs. Bama?... No question, Steeda all the way. Long story short, ordered the SCT & tune from Steeda based on a recommendation here. Ran it for awhile and decided to order the Bama tunes ($150) to see if I could get any more out of the car. The first set of tunes from Bama had...

    Thoughts on set up

    The Roush is loud! I live in a subdivision and my closest 3 neighbors can hear my Stang fire up from inside their brick houses....:rlaugh:

    Changing Rim Questions

    The sensors can be swapped... but you'll have to buy a new set of valve stems from Ford for your car. The cheap valve stems the wheel companies send out won't work with the sensors.

    Opinion on wheels...

    I got these Boss 304 rims for under a grand... they seem pretty beefy, but I don't go out looking for pot holes either...lol. Pic is below.
