Default 4.10's for the GT or CAI/Tune for the V6?

I have my nexts mods figured out for my mustangs; 4.10 gearss for the GT and a CAI & Bama tune for the V6 automatic. I will have only enough money from tax returns and bonus checks (credit card bills ) for one of these. So - What would you guys & gals do? The 4.10s for the GT or CAI & Tune for the V6. Current mods are in my signature.

As much as I love the 4.10s and think you should get them I think the V6 needs the mods more. Especially with the auto.....I think the CAI/Tuner combo would make it a lot more fun to drive

If you get the 4.10's you're never going to drive your V6.

So uh, get the CAI so that you actually use both cars

I guess I should have clarified: My Daughter & Wife drive the V6 (they can't drive a manual) and I drive the GT (my daily driver). Thanks for your vote!

the 6er needs the bama tune... after the tune.. I dare say.. you might be surprised and drive it once in a while too...

That said.. if you get the bama tune for the girls.. they might "let" you get the 4.10s... think about it...

That's a good point. I've always wondered how much a tune would improve the automactic - I undersand it is a bigger improvement than on the manuals. And maybe they might "let" me get the 4.10s if they like the improvement.

Besides, the poll isn't in my favor at this point....

They might not like how fast/hard it shifts for everyday driving.

4.10's!

don't go by the poll results!!

think about it, do you really need to be putting your wife and daughter in danger by giving them more power??? no!!!

just get your 4.10s and call it a day


edit: now the 4.10s are winning in the poll actually so actually do go by the poll results haha
