Default What gives you more Torque

I have a 2010 V6 and I am looking for more torque and off the line speed, doesn't have to boost HP but can if it must. What will achieve this for me without anything major or even a tuner?

Gears/T-Lok, that won't give you more hp/torque, but it will get you up into your torque curve faster, thus giving you the feel of having more.

A CAI/Tuner & gears/t-lok will really change your car.

I was looking into the T lok, which do you think is a good one?

The Ford racing t-lok is a good one...

Detroit Tru-Trac is a great one....

Awesome thanks. Now if I get the T lok and 3.73 gears, will I need a tune because I heard that the speedometer will be off when you change the gears?

You will need to get the speedo adjusted, some dealerships can do it for you for a small fee. But yes a tuner would be the ideal way to go.

I got my CAI/Tuner ($600) & Gears/T-Lok ($700) done at the same time and it was awesome.

If I only do the T lok would the speedo still need to be adjusted due to only that or is it just gears that changes it?

Yep, I had mine up in the air the other day while putting the Boomtube Duals on, and on the rear there's actually a sticker on mine that says "3:31" on it. I thought it was funny.
