I guess I may be a little slow today...
So just uploading SCT's tune that comes straight outa the box is this kind of jump of 31rwhp with no custom tune??? For $380? I mean, that sounds like a no brainer.
Doesn't Steeda have a CAI and SCT Xcall III tune that gains 44hp and 59tq at the crank? That puts the 5.0 at 456hp and 449tq.
What do you need to do if you add a cold air intake or just a K@N filter do you have to reflash it?
I was thinking of a Steeda cold air intake and changing the mufflers to Either Borla or some other performance exhaust havent made mind up yet on the exhaust. I am also going up to 20 inch rims on 275/35 will all these things require a change for each additional MOD. I have been out of the muscle car game for a while my last was a 1990 5.0 LX all the bolt ons 355 gears that sold that in 93 that was my last one till now so I am like a kid in a candy shop cant wait to hop up this car!!
Sounds good to me there is a kit for that comes With the Steeda CAI and the SCT combo pack. My car will be here in 6 weeks. Thank you for your replies!
Will this kit work on an auto transmission car?
If you use this CAI package with the flash tuner wouldn't it void your warranty ? If you flash back to the stock setting can Ford detect it ?
Remember with the Steeda #'s they went from 87 octane to 93 and tested in 4th gear. There is no way Steeda knows anymore than any other experienced tuner and they are only getting 25-30rwhp gains.
I remember when they said you get 38rwhp gain for the 05-09. Who ever seen that out of a tune and CAI?

Can you please explain the 19HP discrepancy?
Just want to make sure I understand.
Thanks.
Wow this is a great topic. I am so confused about this entire tune/tuner thing. So forgive me. This is how I understand it. We who purchased 2011 mustangs can now order an SCT SF3 tuner which comes preloaded with a dyno tune to include the addition of the Steeda CAI added for roughly $380.
Now somewhere along the line Jon Lund who seems to do special tunes for Lethal Performance,Evolution Performance and ???? If I can make another 44HP and 52ft/lbs of torque for $380 + CAI does that mean for $480 + cost of CAI I will get another 10-15 HP with a John Lund tune? Now don't get me wrong I'm not trying to be a smart a$$ or piss anyone off, I'm just trying to spend money wisely by being informed. I assume a Jon lund tune would include mods like Cat back,X-pipe,octane. This is a quote from Lethal Performance website.
