Default I'd like to drive a stock V6/Auto

My 2006 V6 Auto Tungsten coupe seems a lot faster since I added the CAI,X-Cal II tune and dual GT take-off mufflerss with H-pipe. It would be nice to drive a stock V6 Auto coupe and see if mine is really that much faster than before I made the mods. Has anyone gone to a Ford dealer to do this? Were you disappointed or did you feel better about your car's performance?

For real power, get the 93octane tune.
That will really set your world on fire.

With the mods that you have made, there is a world of difference.

Go to your local Ford dealer and just test drive a stock V6.
Then you will see the difference.

My best ET is 15.550 @ 90.04 mph, but remember, I have not run the lights since 1969 when I had a '69 Mustang; so I could do better!

I am going for at least 14. something.

Oh, my.........................to just have the 60's back again.

I hear you loud and clear about the 60's. I had a brand new 1969 Mach I in November of 1968. I got back from Viet Nam in 1967 and bought a 1965 Corvette with 365 HP 327 CI 4 speed and both tops. I traded it for the 1969 Mach I when they came out. Wish I still had both of those cars!

Load the factory tune and you'll see the difference.

Would the car even start with the SLT CAI after loading the stock tune? I had thought of just loading the stock tune but then I thought I would also have to put the stock air filter back on.
