Okay, so I've got a 5.0 that is getting bored .30 over, a stage 1 trickflow cam, valve spring upgrade, trickflow street heat upper/lower intake, 65mm throttle body, cold air kit, and shorty headers. other than exhaust and clutch, these are all of my upgrades. my question is, am i gonna NEED a tune on my computer? and secondly, what are good tuners/programmers that i should look at? id really like something where i can have multiple settings and change these settings without having send off chips or like that. ANY input would be great considering i HATE dealing with electronics or anything electrical. thanks guys!

I believe Diablo makes one. Not really sure how limited it is.

I ended up getting a chip with 3 tunes on it. Cost me 200 bucks with a few free re-burns if I didn't get the dyno time.

I don't know anything about tuning but, I can tell you that you need to do your homework when doing it. Especially when an aftermarket cam is involved.

yeah im definitely trying to do ALL the homework i can on this. ive been burning up the internet and honestly, this forum is probably one of the most helpful sites ever for me. so thank you to everyone for helping out.

YES GET A TUNE. take it to someone who knows there stuff. I have the diablo chip and my tuners in denver dialed my car in with ten runs in 30min. You will also need a adjustable fuel pressure regulater or you will fight getting it rite.

take it to a reputable mustang shop and have them burn a chip for your car

so i should definitely take it to someone instead of using a programmable tuner or anything i can just do myself? and are there any handheld programmable tuners for a 93? because ive looked and ive only found modules and chips.

AdderMk2

there are no hand held tuners for our cars... which is why I said take it to a shop and get a chip

I believe AdderMk2 is right but, here is the number and address for the guy that said he could get me one from Diablo. Give him a call if you want. Ask for Mike.
