New to me V8
After having my 2003v6 (first car)mustang for 5 years, I've finally had the chance to get a GT!
The only thing done to the car is American muscle thunder exhaust, 3.73 gears, and subframe connectors.
On top of more Hp than my v6, I'm also having to figure out the manual transmission, but so far I've been able to manage fine.
I do have a few questions you guys may be able to address... The speedometer is off because of the gears. I had gears in my v6 and corrected it with the SCT handheld tuner off American muscle, can that tuner be Programmed by Bama to work with the GT platform? Or am I just gonna have to drop some cash to get it fixed?
On the exhaust note, the current setup sounds great and I plan to keep it for a while, but how'd it sound without the two rear cat converters, maybe a little too overbearing?
Anyway, just thought id post up since I haven't in a while. Thanks!

I have no cats on mine and i like the way it sounds. Get on youtube and search for your setup and see if you like it with no cats or not.
And as for the tuner you should be able to call bama and tell them you bought a new mustang and they should be able to switch it as long as your tuner is unmarried. Did you put the stock tune back on your v6 before you sold it?

I haven't put the stock tune back on yet, but I still have the car. Guess I'll have to explain to the next driver about the speedometer, lol... The only thing I hate about YouTube vids is the quality you hear.
