Well you could go to a dyno shop and have your car customed tune. ( i think that's what your asking anyways) I don't know much about that, other than it can get pricey. Your better off IMO to order in a programer which is what the Xcal 2 is. It comes Loaded with three different performance tunes on it. If you do it with a combo for a CAI those tunes will be made to work with it. Plus having the programer allows you too easily change tunes down the road as you add more and better mods to your car. I don't know anything about Florida shops but there are alot of guys from Florida on here they may be able to point you to somebody local.

Yes the Xcal will change your shift points (make them firmer) and it will almost get rid of that throttle lag

My MRT exhaust sounds great, Depends on what you want as to what you should go with though. Do you want to stay single exhaust or go duals?

thanks so much for the info! i dont have to order the tune right, theres dealers that have tuners for our cars at shops right? anyone u know off the top of your head in the palm beach county florida area? im in jupiter florida, everything is mostly in boca, west palm, etc.....will it chain my shift points on my automatc? whats the sct xcal 2? is that a tune? is thier a FACT number the cai gives u in hp increase? is thier a diff throttle response? our cars have like the a lag when u mash it! its almost like turbo lag on a na car, heheh....i wonder if the CAI will help the lag? hows the exhaust sound, u didnt mentione...

You've basically got the concept down for tuners. You order a tuner from whoever you choose. Ie..bamachips, alternative auto, evolution, somebody else. Order the SCT Xcal 2. It will come with three tunes preloaded on it. You plug it into your cars data port and upload the new tune which adjust several items such as tranny shift points, timing, air fuel mixture resulting increased HP and Torque. Most people will recomend you do a CAI at the same time. Most places have combos on them.

As to sound difference with my CAI Maybe a little, but I put my exhaust on after my CAI so it's hard for me to say for sure.
There is a lot more info out there on Tuners and CAI. I just did a simple overview here for you. Do some research and see what you like and what you thinbk will fit best with you needs and future plans... Good luck and let us know

Welcome to the forums!!!! I think your whit stang would look dead sexy with the Black- Bullits deep dish, side and rear louvers. But instead of the wing i would suggest the duck syle spoiler with black racing stripes. oh and atleast 20% tint
