Lol or wait for the TVS 1900 Kit to come out..

JK A CAI/Tune/Exhaust would be best right now.

HI Liam, I have a 2005 mustang v6 flowmaster exaust that I want to give away in exchange to a stock one that you might currently own? Please write back if you're interested in swapping these exaust.

Default GT Muffler - cheap mods

Hey Dave - I got a K&N filter a couple years ago. How much is the GT muffler, and is it a direct swap, or will it need a little work to fit? How does it change the sound? Deeper?
I bought my '05 new, and when I started it up, I thought it was cool how they got it to sound like a small block from the inside.

Default 4.0 V6 - First Mod.

Hey rygenstormlocke,
That's a nice front air dam. What is it? I've been wanting a more vintage Trans-Am Mustang looking front spoiler, and your is closeer to what I want. I have a Sonic Blue '05 V6 with the deck wing, and a nice air dam would balance the look.
Also - any of you guys with the racing stripes - what brand is the best, and where can I get them installed. I'm in Central Jersey - Turnpike Exit 8, near Princeton.
Thanks
Slotcar Gene

CAI/Tuner Combo

• Doug/Bamachips: XCAL2 and your choice of TI or C&L CAI. (When I switched to his tune for my old TI, it shaved off 3/10ths on my time, his daily driver is an auto as well, though I think he has several test mules/test customer cars at his disposal)
• Evolution: XCAL2 and C&L (lot of guys use them, they have a good rep, actually met them at FFW, good bunch of guys)
• AZDynoChip: XCAL2 and ? (don't know if they do the internet thing, they will tune any CAI and produce some of the highest dyno numbers)
• Lidio/Alternative Auto: XCAL2 and CAI (I did some research and several shops referred me to him for Automatics, his personal daily driver is an auto)
• Brenspeed: XCAL2 and C&L (another highly reputable shop)
• Justin/VMP Tuning: XCAL2 and ? (Considered one of the top dogs for the V6 stang community, he’s also tested more CAI’s on the same dyno session than anyone I’ve seen so far, read about it here: http://www.v6power.net/vb/showthread.php?t=25551 )

Stick with any of the above and you will be fine.
