I paid 300 bucks for a dyno tune, and picked up 17whp and like 23wtq on a mustang dyno. It pulled alot smoother and i got better gas mileage. Best 300 dollars i ever spent.

I would recommend the tune, just like Justin said, the car is a lot smoother and feels like there's a lot more power under the curve. Unfortunately, my tune never got did a baseline run before tuning so I dont know exactly how much it gained but the difference is noticeable, for example going @ 70mph in 5th gear and getting on it the car would hesitate and accelerate kinda slow, this is not the case anymore, it pulls nicely.

Thats where I'm thinking the real gain is as well... under the curve. Thats what really counts anyway, but Justin's peak gains are still a nice touch, no doubt. I think I'll go ahead with the tune.

Just an intake, o/r x, and flo's with turn downs. It actually picked up like 30 tq in the midrange. If i can find the graph i will post it up.

Nice! I know that made a huge difference. Definitely get that graph up if you can. I'd love to see it. No worries if you can't find it.
