Default Tuner/chip

I just bought my 1st Mustang
Its a 07 GT ragtop.
I want to install a cold air intake, but understand most require a "reflash" or chip of some sort.
I understand the installation is simple, its the reflashing/chip install that scares me.
All I want is the extra HP without worrying about constantly about programming the chip.
How much attention does the tuner require, and how do you know how to "set it up" once you install it?

Thanks,

none....you load the tune and you are done unless you want to switch out the tune for a different one. Do some reading cause there are plenty of threads that go into much more detail about everything

Congratulations on the new purchase!!!!

The CAI and tune is easy to install and does not require any changes unless you want to change it back to stock or change the tune. I would check out Brenspeed, Evolution or B A M A as they all have great kits.

Congrats and welcome to the club. The tune is only flashed once and is very easy to do. You will love the performance once you do it. Enjoy

I was worried as well but I am very happy I did it, It's very simple and I could never go back to stock now!!
