Default WOW! NIGHT/DAY DIFFERENCE

So I took my 05' GT in to Ford's to have some odds/ends looked into under warranty, and when I got the car back they missed a bunch of stuff[:@] but one thing they corrected without me asking was the fuel pump!! I must say after the replacement I feel a HUGE difference in overall power!! Im on my 3rd GT now, the first being an 04' SN95 and when I made the transition to the S197's I was satisfied, but that was about it... After having the fuel pump replaced I must admit Im very IMPRESSED!! I really feel like im driving a 300hp ponycar the way ford intended for it to be!!I highly recomend everyone to verify they have a proper working fuel pump in there stang esp. if its the first year.. The difference feels like I just spent $hundreds$ of dollars modding it and in reality its still bone stock!! As long as Ford can resolve the remainding issues I will be even more happy with the car!! In the mean time I'll continue to drive the Ford Edge they loaned me in the meantime, which is also an awesome ride IMO.. The drive is truely impeckable!!!

There was a TSB on the fuel pumps according to the service mgr. I've been lucky at my local ford dealer. They always seem to go way out over and above for me. Maybe its because my entire family has bought tons of cars from them and they see it in the computer when they pull up our last name. But yea they have no problem replacing anything under warrant with no hassle. I just cant describe how much more power I feel I've achieved through this simple fix. According to Ford they say the previous fuel pump hesitated alot obviously resulting in loss of power...

I looked under the TSB section for TSB's on 2006 Mustangs and there was no listing for fuel pump problems. Where else should I look. Thanks.
