Default RE: Roar and lack of pull?

Thanks everyone, im going to bring my rpm and idle speed down. and make sure that i take my traction control off. The fuego tuner is ok, apparently they have downloads online, but i have yet to find some. Im about to change my tires to 18's and the fuego allows me to make changes. I def will think about selling it and getting something different. thanks again. oh, what do you guys suggest with getting gears, 3.73, 4.10, or lower like 3.55?

3.73 for auto, 4.10 for manual in general but really it depends on your driving habits and expectations. 3.55's you wont see much difference and probably not really worth the money.

Get the idle back up and reduce the rev limiter. These carsdon't haveNASCAR motors and don't need to be set above 6500 RPM's IMHO.

i have a 07 GT. I put a K&N cai system and flow masters on the back. Wondering why the engine is roaring, air flowing nice, but pick up and torque is lagging. it wants to go fast, but its lagging, why? Is is possible that too much air is flowing through? also i have a fuego flash tuner. Wondering with my simple mods, where should i set my rpm's at. i have it at 7200 both drive and neutral. and my idle drive and neutral is at 590. open for suggestions here.
