Default New to 4.6

Just wanted to say hi to everyone. I just bought a 2005 Sonic Blue Auto GT a couple weeks ago. I had a 2006 4.0 that I traded in for it. This car is AMAZING! The previous owner put a K&N intake and Flowmaster A/T on. I'm lucky and have a car I can take to and from work, but all I think about is getting home to drive the new Stang.

Anyway, I saw some info on a Jet Performance Module and was wondering what the pros and cons are on them. I know a SCT or other tuner would be better, but I still a little curious. Also, how are the Auto transmissions holding up in these cars. Thanks.

I don't have an auto, but I believe they should hold-up okay. Stay from jetperformance. Get a known tuner and that way their you can either have tunes emailed or dyoned to your car. SCT or Diablo is the way to go. I believe more tuners use SCT, but I have heard that the diablo is easier to use.
