Hello, new to this forum, not new to forums in general.

I recently had the pleasure of replacing the engine in my 2010 LT RS Camaro.. of coarse all $8000 out of pocket because of mods, but am very skeptical because the damn thing drank oil, like I drink Rum. I had a plethera of bolt ons.. all the usual suspects... Plus a very healthy nitrous system installed. Guess what the dealer blamed. Anyways, lesson learned. Replaced engine, last my shorts on the trade in, and got into the car I really wanted all along. 2013 premium package GT. I installed an Airaid CAI first week (this is my second week of ownership) and have a 3" h pipe exhaust kit on the way. I'm looking for a good tune if anyone has any advice. I'm Leary of the Bama because I've read a couple of things about an "8th cylinder" issue they had. Anyways, any advice is welcome. Glad to be here!

Welcome to the Forums and to the Mustang Family! Post up some pictures of your 2013 GT, we'd love to check it out.

We can definitely offer you a Powerful, but extremely Safe tune for your new Mustang! The Cylinder #8 issue is a thing of the past and in fact and was proven not to be caused by tuning. Stock 2011/2012 5.0 GT's were having Cylinder number 8 issues! I haven't heard anything regrading the 2013's...

To make you a little bit more comfortable, we offer a Cylinder #8 Warranty. This is just to give you a little piece of mind, that we have your back no matter what!

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions or need some assistance in the near future!

-Dan

Ya, I've been reading about this a lot.. I'm on the graveyards all this week, so plenty of reading and research time. I'm still a little stung on what it cost me to get out of that car, and just a little Leary of ALL mods for a little bit, but I'm sure it won't be long. As soon as the exhaust is here, and I've got it installed, I'm thinking 3.73s, then get the tune for all at the same time... So within the month. I bought my CAI through you all, and service was good, price was good, so I see me doing more business with to you all.
