My Stang is a stick...Why would a tuner only give me 5? shouldn't it be more? How can I get better acceleration from my car? Theres so much slack in the throttle cable it's unbelievable! Is there any way to take that slack out? I can literally pull my pedal towards me 3-4 inches..Is that legal lol! I just want to be able to waste people..people always ask if my stang is fast..and I wanna be able to answer with a hell yeah it's fast..

i dont know if this will work for you but it will bring your pedal forward an inch or so.....i did it to mine becuase it bothered me havin my gas pedal way down below my break. I didnt do this exactly but just the main idea of it is all you need. pedal slack obviously no hp gain but i think its more comfortable to drive.

You'll get about 5 hp with the stock settings by adjusting your spark advance, but this should only be done by a pro while your on the dyno, and if need be by adjusting your air to fuel mixture. You'd have to get a racing tune downloaded onto the tuner to really have the chance to get more. And the only way you're gonna be fast is to A.) get a T/C or S/C B.) do the mods I have listed as future in my sig, C.) do everything autobadges.com did, or D.) get a GT.

[:@] stupid single port intake,but if u're going to do just the crank pulley and get only 4 hp might as well add the other two to get 3 more hp on top of that..shouldnt be that much more and will probably come in a package of all 3....

its just swapping out the intake manifold or whatever its called, it would probably be just as easy to add a m-90 supercharger off a SC

Yea it's an intake swap, but you don't just "SWAP" the intake, do that and you're basically waisting your money as you'll only be pushed up to about 160rwhp, add about 2-5 poneys because early sn95s have a slightly more aggressive cam, but for the install price a basic swap just isn't worth it, you should at least get a mild cam, to add more poneys, and port and polish the intake to get the maximum power out of it being N/A, and do the other things I have listed below in my sig.
