Default Hello from Atlanta

Hi, I'm Jason. Originally from Detroit and now living in Atlanta. In a few days it will be my two year anniversary with my '06 Stang and I'm 400 miles shy of warranty expiration. I'm looking forward to reading the posts in this forum and learning ways to make my car just a little quicker than the average Stang. I haven't had a chance to get it on the track yet and I'd like to before I do any drastic changes. So far the only performance related changes I've made have been the Borla mufflers and a K&N air filter (if these even count as "Performance Related" changes). The other mods I've made to car are all cosmetic; window tint, colored mirror inserts, sequential taill lights, 8" antenna, and a hood-pin appearance kit.

My only beef with the car so far has been throttle response (bogs on take-off if too much throttle is applied, especially on 85+ degree days). I'm hoping that an SCT tune will take care of that, but I'd like to get some baseline times in before I even do that. Down the road I may consider some gear changes, probably 3.73, since I want to maintain the driveability and my past experience with 4.10's in a daily driver (87 GT) was not pleasant.

I plan to keep this car as long as possible as possible.

Regards,
Jason
