Since getting the below posted mods installed I have been more friendly to the idea of manually shifting my auto (since all 5 gears are currently selectable). Downshifting allows the engine to brake going through the corners and I have complete control over my car just the same if I owned a manual. There's just no clutch involved and Im happy with that. I get the best of both worlds because its not every day that I want to play around and I just need to focus on the traffic ahead and around me.
Do I care if I get called a 16 chick for owning such a vehicle with above and below mentioned transmission, no, not at all. If my car and my reaction time are faster than the competition your silly poopoo talk about the auto becomes useless and you've just been.
BTW, your thread has been hijacked.

I'll even go out on a limb here and say that in certian cars I would rather have an automatic....such as a Porsche Turbo Convert....but thats just because they are pimp.

You may have s/c'd your car, and have a manly stick tranny, but next time you're at the track, try taking the parking-brake off!

This Is a thread about A blower that I was one of the first people in the US to receive. You dont belong in here making your comments. Have fun making your car payments and keep dreaming about actually modifying your turkey.cleveland said:In my defense of purchasing an Auto equiped Mustang (a real man's performance car), I promised myself that if Ford stuck a 5 speed auto in it and it performed well that I would own it.

As Some one who has owned 28 cars and currently owns a 1994 Acura NSX my 05 Gt, Blown of course, and numerous bikes I have never owned an Auto. Ive also never owned a single Chrysler product. And any real car enthusiast would know why.goldsmjr said:Sorry man....but that was one of the lamest posts in your defense....you definetely didn't "own" anyone! hahaha sorry....I'm actually sitting here laughing at your futile attempts to justify buying an auto.

Nick, I really appreciate your showing interest in a customers complaint. The car doesnt feel that inpressive during normal driving conditions. I completely beleive this is due to the tune. The article I read on Modular Depots website about using the SCT tune for a ProCharged mustang Totally makes sense. Its very technical, But something about the spark advance missing during low RPM? Also an A/F ratio of 15:1 at 3500 RPM? this doesnt seem very safe for the motor. If you could please read the article I would appreciate any return reply. I definitely dont want to trade my diablo out for another company tune. I already paid for one. Any updates available?NickDiabloSport said:The calibrations in the Procharger Predator are created for safe daily driver applications. We have made excellent power and have proven track times on these applications.
The Procharger system utilizes a blow through MAF set up; this and the inlet design create a need for tune adjustment in some vehicles. All of which is easily done with the Predator programmer. As per the instructions in the Procharger kit, install the supercharger kit and calibration, drive the vehicle and monitor short term fuel trims to find where the MAF curve adjustment needs to be made. The Procharger instructions will give a more detailed explanation of this process.
Tune changes made by others involve timing and fuel curves, along with a commanded A/F ratio. The calibration changes alone are not going to make the difference if the vehicle is properly set up in the first place and the MAF curve is adjusted as per the vehicles needs.
DiabloSport can not be there to set up each vehicle, we can only supply the tools needed to make the proper changes. Predator does all these things and with out the use of a laptop, or a visit to a dealer.
Now for the hottest tune you can safely run on the street, and for additional boost applications, visit a DiabloSport CMR dyno tuning dealer. There is no substitute for dyno time, and to maximize power and safety it’s the only way to go. If you don’t have access or the money to spend on this then follow the instructions and run the Predator calibrations supplied.
Thanks,
Nick Spinelli

My track time might have sucked but there was also a Lamborghini Mercialago down there in the low 13's. I smoked him. Guess he cant launch it either. Let me catch you on the highway, Mic. You will really need to lower that car then. Seriously. Springs: $250. 2 Hrs labor. Not having to get stuck with a slushbox? Priceless.celticstanger said:...or a blown 05 GT with a club-footed clown behind the wheel.

Nice attempt at a racial slur. Wrong country though, idiot.
Keep up the good work - as long slack-jawed droolers like your good self
A) can't drive
B) can't write
C) use transmission as a surrogate for manhood
D) use lame excuses for not being able to drive
the rest of us will continue to look so much better.
Later, Tootsie Roll.
(I feel the approach of the mods...)
