Default Hey All

Hey guys, im new to the forum, first post, i live in the United Arab Emirates and drive an 08 Mustang GT.. My current Mods are;

JLT Intake
Kooks Headers w/ X-Pipe
Borla mufflers

I have an SCT Tuner and i wanted to get myself a good tune for my modifications, any suggestions on what I should do? i was thinking of contacting brenspeed? What would i expect to have in terms of WHP and Torque with these modifications and a tune?

Thanks guys, i know sometimes people hate replying to people with 1 post!

You may want to look around in the UAE for tuner's, first. I'm not sure how many tuners in the US will be willing to ship out of the country. For a well-know tuner, perhaps contact Brenspeed and see if you can work something out for shipping. Their tunes are top notch.

With your mods plus a good tune, you should be seeing around 305~rwhp, maybe 315-325~rwtq.

He already has the tuner, so it would just be an email tune.

A lot of places offer email tunes. Brenspeed, bbr, vmp, Tillaman, JDM. There's alot more I haven't mentioned.

Do you have unlimited speeds on the highway in UAE?

If those mods are already installed but your car is still using the stock tune, then recommend not driving it aggressively or you may damage the engine.

Hey guys sorry for such a late reply..

First of all, yes hahaha we have speed limits and 1000's of radars all over the UAE, exceed the speed limit and get caught and you got yourself a minimum of a 180 dollar fine However, there are lots of amaaazing rodes which are so fun to drive, youtube 'jabel hafeet' for example

Second yes i have those mods and a tune on the SCT X3 a local guy from the local mustang club put together, however, he told me i should get myself a good email tune Youg guys gave me lots of sudgestions which is fast and aggressive but still good for daily driving.. what are for example the top 2 used on the forum

I'd say Brenspeed and Bamachips are probably the top two tuners in terms of what forum members use, but I only have experience with Brenspeed. I can tell you his tunes are top notch. He even wrote a tune for my Whipple and emailed it to me. It was flawless.
