    Normal for higher altitudes?

    Here's an awesome dyno run. Quarter mile simulator on a Mustang dyno in Longmont, Colo. I thought this car was going to rip the chains out of the concrete. <embed width="448" height="361" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent"...

    Error code help

    Basically, read your strategy with the tuner before you take the car in. Write it down. When you get the car back, before you try to reload your tune, read the strategy again, and make sure it didn't change.

    Normal for higher altitudes?

    They do correct for altitude. I'll have to dig up my sheets, but at one of the two places I dynoed here in Colo., they had both the actual and SAE corrected numbers. We lose a LOT here because of the air...I believe it was over 50 rwhp difference.

    2005+ GT Trailer Hitch?

    Post #9 above shows what it looks like with a hitch cover on it....If I remember right, mine is a Hidden Hitch, but I'll double-check that. I'll try to get a pic today of what it looks like without the cover. It's not really noticeable at all. Given some of the attitudes you may get about...

    SCT X3 Tuner Question

    I'm pretty sure that is the case....you are modifying the parameters of the tune that you're getting ready to load. So, yes, you'd be adding firmness to Doug's already quite firm shifts.

    My Color? can i add it?

    You can do it, I did it to my '07. But before you get your hopes up, pull the switch blank to the left of the power port on the dash. If there's a wire connector plugged into that blank, you're good to go. You'll need to buy the cluster, and the switch pack that goes where the blank is now. As...

    BEST SEQUENTIAL TAIL LIGHTS ??

    Sweet!! I just ordered the blue trunk light myself!! A couple of weeks ago, I put a grey fleece jacket in my trunk. The next day, I went to get it out, didn't see it, and assumed I lost it. The trunk is just too dark! I love my CDC sequentials...that was my first mod. My '72 Cougar had...

    2005+ GT Trailer Hitch?

    Wow, being able to take my bikes with me in a car that I love to drive. It's not like I welded a rack to the trunk. There's a tiny 1 1/4 inch square below the bumper. And I found a cover for it, anyways :D

    2005+ GT Trailer Hitch?

    I got a hitch put on mine, because I have a bike rack that fits into the receiver. To install the hitch, you need to drop your exhaust, and there is drilling involved.

    GT500 owners in SOCAL...lighten up!

    I was in a show with a GT-500 owner, and he was a really nice guy....we spent a lot of time finding differences between our cars. I really like the staggered wheels on them, they look sweet! He didn't even cop an attitude when I got a trophy and he didn't. Went on a poker run with about 15...

    Lean% On Brenspeed Tunes?

    I believe that with both the Predator and the XCAL, the Fuel % adjustment which you speak of refers to changing the tune you have loaded on the predator by XX%. Unless you know what you're doing, don't do this, or you may become the proud owner of a Vapor Metallic paperweight.

    what is cal stradagy

    Interesting response..... Let me take a crack at it. The calibration strategy is a code in your car's ECM that labels what version of tune, code, etc it has in it. If you have an SCT tuner and a custom tune, it is VERY important that you read your strategy and WRITE THIS DOWN SOMEWHERE...

    Recorded my best DA corrected 1/4 mile time last night

    I had a week off about a month ago, and was seriously considering driving to Kearney, Nebraska, (almost 400 miles) or Kansas City, (over 600 miles) just to get a few runs in at a track with air. Didn't make it, though. At worst, I do have a nephew getting married in KC next year, and if I do...

    New XCal 3 WOW! Thanks Doug

    Interesting.....the Xcal2 is always the same price, everywhere, and I believe the Livewire was too. Yet Doug has the X3 for $20 less than the link that Bigcat posted. Maybe SCT is relaxing their pricing policies? The Livewire looked interesting. It's sad that SCT couldn't get its issues...

    ? who have sct tune

    I don't feel that at all...maybe it's the SCT tune, and whatever they did to the torgue management? Doug at Bamachips is the one you want doing your tunes if you've got an auto....freaking amazing.

    New XCal 3 WOW! Thanks Doug

    Yep, Xcal3....Doug just started shipping them this week. I just looked on SCT's website, and can't find them there. They have a bigger display and more memory than an Xcal2, on device data logging, and I believe two analog inputs for widebands and what not. Doug does have them on his website.

    Brand new GT with a little problem

    www.newtakeoff.com has seat covers, but a set is $350. I don't know if they would sell just the passenger seat bottom separately, but you could always ask.

    Recorded my best DA corrected 1/4 mile time last night

    That's easy for you to say, my track is at 5800 ft actual. You don't even want to know the kind of DAs we see here!!! :D

    Instrument cluster question?

    You're not necessarily out of luck....my '07 did not have the IUP, and I wanted the cluster with the message center. On the left hand side of the middle of your dash, across from the traction control switch, there is a blank plug which is the same size and shape as the traction control switch...
