it's an auto which is what I wanted since it's my daily-drive as well. drove the ls1 (which is a stick) into work for about a month, I think i may have gained an inch or two of left calf muscle from all the stop/go traffic shifting! haha.
also, just left him a voicemail about the tuner so we'll see.
i'm gonna swing by the shop that did the work tomorrow and see if they can check out this obnoxious clunk/thump coming from the front end when I make a turn above 15mph (basically any turn, but it's intermittent so I'm stumped to what it is, maybe the shocks?).

Like someone said, whe you get a chance post up some pics 
Ohh and if I may make a suggestion, after a tuner i'd suggest going with a o/r x pipe and a catback exhaust. Adding thost two things to you list already who def UP the fun factor you'll get from your car.

yeah I was thinking about it, not sure though, it sounds pretty good as it is now.
BUT, those loud mustangs that I am used to seeing (hearing!) on the road are very cool!
we shall see, I'd have to listen around and figure out what sounds like what in real life.

Get on youtube and try out different combos but then again you can always use the search function here on MF, enough members have posted up video of there exhaust and new threads seem to pop up everyday about exhaust so its easy to find em. Good luck\
PS: I love the green... wish Ford continued at least a few more years than they did w/ that color. Then again I was sad when ford ditch the sonic blue after 05.
But if the color returned i'd buy a new car tomorrow! Maybe 2014 for the 50th.... I can only hope.

predator is a handheld tuner. did that come with the car or did he keep the tuner? if he kept it he probably unmated it and there LIKELY isnt a tune on your car.
like said, if its tuned for 91 you can definately use 93 octane, just don't run anything lower than 91. alot of people have a hard time finding 93 octane gas pumps so they tune for 91, but running 93 won't hurt anything at all, will just cost you a little more money.
and yeah those mods are pretty much self explanitory.

so does that mean I don't have any kind of tune right now? is the tune only applied when the predator is plugged in? or is the tune just stored in the diablo to be edited later? sorry for all the questions.
basically, should i buy the tuner from him? If it's the only way to get the shop's tune (assuming they made the tune...) then I might as well buy it even though I don't want to give him another penny right now.
I'm pretty upset he didn't include it in the sale though, almost want to buy it somewhere else just to spite him, just seems like a jerk move as he has no other need for it besides making a quick buck. Oh well...
