DeStonn - I'm praying right now. I don't race it or run it that hard very often and it's not a DD. I'm prepared to have to do the internals one of these days.

You GO!!!! You Go Man!!!! Thanks - I can't wait - Why did you go with that (Steeda) instead of C&L?

Please let us know what made you go with Steeda... I have one near me and their price was much higher.

Brent recommended it on his web site. And when I called him and asked about it, he said it was a good one. From what I've read, the tune matters a lot more than the CAI.

My XCAL2 & Brenspeed tune did the job. I have the Steeda also. Congrats!

I feel your pain. I had trouble waiting the week and a half it took to get the stuff from Brenspeed. And then I had to wait most of a week to have the time to install it.

I think I remember seeing a posting from you about your problem before, but I don't remember the details of what happened. The guys at Brenspeed seemed very helpful. Have you tried calling them? They claim that they can get you going again even if Ford has reflashed your computer without telling you, which is one thing that I know can cause you a problem.

At any rate, sorry you're having trouble. I understand that B A M A is great stuff, too.

Grats!! I can still remember the first drive post install.......completely different car....What started as a quick shot around the block turned into a 10 or 15 mile freeway jaunt.....

Glad you are pleased....Brenspeed rocks......

Sorry guys but I gotta play devils advocate on this extremely popular topic! You see I've got a buddy whos got the same mustang gt as me but his is a year newer, and hes got the CAI/Cold air combo and I dunno If its worth it when he's only about 2 tenths of a second quicker than me at the quarter mile. If it were about half that price I think I would be more likely to consider it, but for over $600, I personally cant justify it,. Not to mention those results are when you have enough room to speed up to a little over 100 mph, throughout my course of driving getting up to 100 is far and few. I have the pypes h pipe and slps for those of you wondering...
