Default Just ordered 05-07 Custom SCT X-Cal2 and VMP Intake Package

Just ordered an 05-07 Mustang V6 Custom SCT X-Cal2 Flasher and VMP Intake package for $485.00from v6mustangstuff. What do you guys think? Anyone have that package? The package includes an SCT X-Cal2 with three VMP custom tunes AND VMP 05+ V6 Intake. Comments, opinions, etc. I never heard of VMP. Anyways i thought that was a good deal considering I needed a new intake, I need a tune, and when I had my 01 Jetta it cost $500 bucks just to tune the car! So $500 for everything sounds good to me!

Another question, I ordered a Pony Package Grille upper and lower, it comes with the whole shabang! Im going to have someone install it for me but if my car didnt have the fog lights before, are they going to have to drill into the inside of my car to make a switch to turn them on/off etc????? Thanks in advance!

Steven

you will be one happy customer. very good deal, very respected product, great choice. as for the pp grill, i was assuming that it was a rather simple self install. i believe several here on the forums have installed it themselves with few obstacles. i could be wrong though.

Justin of VMP is always mentioned among the top custom tuners so you made a great choice, even if you didn't know it! You'd better do a quick tune up your smile cause its about to be stuck on your face like the Joker from Batman
Do a search on the PP foglight conversion, there are a few install options detailed in the forum threads.

Yes, I have the same package. The Xcal2 with the VMP CAI intake + larger Maf housing. It is a good package, however, I did replace one of the VMP tunes with a Bama tune, and the Bama tune is waayyy better. I got the Bama 91 torque tune after I had the XCal2, and it is well worth $75.00

bama tunes are $50 now. not sure if its limited time or permanent but definitely a good deal.
