CAI/Exhaust/Tune Combo 2010 GT
Hey everyone I have a 2010 Mustang GT, looking for your opinion on whats the deepest rumble exhaust you have heard? Whats the best CAI you have ever used? and have you used a Premium Gas Tune? Much of a difference? I'm looking to wake up my engine with a CAI/Exhaust/Tune.
Thanks in advance!

There are a lot of exhaust combo choices so use the search. Sound bits just don't do them justice...
A CAI & tune will wake the car, even with an 87 custom tune. As you go up in octane, the car picks up a bit more power and each tune has different characteristics. The power gain is about 80% tune, 20% CAI so choose the CAI based on what looks good to the eyes and wallet. And not all tunes are written equally. Brenspeed and Bala/AM have some of the best tunes.

Steeda has one of the best CAI/Tune combinations. Don't take my word for it, but take customer testimonials like the one listed below from stangnet:http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-foru...-tunes.852300/
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 problems, my transmission would drop out of gear on a kick down (the car lost all power and bogged down). Called bama, got 3 more tunes... loaded them, weather turned to crap so the car sat, a few weeks later I decided to drive the car on a short trip and it happened twice (once in front of other cars while trying to merge into traffic). Called again, was told to remove the race tune and try a performance tune, car did it again! They wrote one more tune... this time I didn't even get to the highway from my house and it did it. At this point, I figured we wasted enough of each others time... I called again and asked for my money back.
Back to the Steeda tune... Its nice and aggressive. Haven't had one problem with the 92 tune that they wrote. It seems like the car pulls harder on top, but maybe lacks some of the bottom end power that Bama had... which perhaps doesn't matter much since the stock Pirelli's can't find traction anyways...lol. I believe it was Todd that I've dealt with at Steeda... super nice guy.
If your running an auto, get the Steeda for sure. Just my 2 cents...
All tunes are not created equal, thats why Steeda is highly recommended and well respected in the industry.
