CAI/Tuner - $850

Wow, I got my intake and tune for $350. Install took about 15 minutes. Don't use the FRPP intake and tune, the intake is really nothing more than an air filter and airbox delete, and the tune is still very mild.

All right, here we go....

I have a 2005 automatic GT,bone stock.

I spoke to the Ford dealership (great dealership really takes care of me if you can believe it!) and I'm going to have theminstall the following;

3.73 Gears - $650
CAI/Tuner - $850
Borla Exhaust (from the Cat back) $580

with the exception of the Borla exhaust, all parts are Ford Racing, so, warrantly will not be voided (only have 6 months left anyway). What do you all think ? worth it or am I getting taken ?

The only ones they are taking care of is their profit margin, holy crap arethey are making a buck! Save 300+ on the CAI and do it yourself, the gears can be done by a pro for about 150 to 200 cheaper for the same or better work and the Borla exhaust isn't needed from the cats back IMHO but the price for that actually isn't that bad.
