Default 0 - 60 Improvements on 4.0L CAI, Tune, and Exhaust?

I just wanted to hear some typical improvements on 0 - 60 times with minimum mods, if at all. Also, is the V6 210 hp and 240 tq rated at the crank?

Thanks for the help,

It made a huge difference in my 2005 Ranger with the 4.0.

With these mods, this 6 cyl, might be .01524 better in the quarter mile. If anything, it willsound like it is really really fast, but in reality..............

CAI/Tune and exhaust should perk the car up nicely!

Its very noticable, maybe not 2 or 3 seconds faster but its worth the money.

Thanks for the help,

yes 210 and 240 are at the crank...

at the rear i guestimate we are like 185 to 190hp (there is a little loss from the crank to the wheel due to basic physics principals).... as for torque....at the rear im not sure of what percentage of loss is from the crank to the wheels....or if there is a loss anyone with better knowledge on this wanna field this one?

I went from Bone Stock - 15.7 @ 87mph / 60ft - 2.5 to 14.8 @ 90mph / 60ft - 1.9

MODs added to make a .9 sec and 3mph improvement in 1/4 mile times and dropped .6 sec off my 60ft times:

Tunable Induction Intake - $200
SCT X2 tuner $400
Supernatural Racing 2800 Stall TQ Converter and Performance Flexplate$600
Ford Racing Traction-Loc and 3.73 Motive Gears $600
Labor: about $700 to install the Converter, LSD and Gears
Total: about $2500 total

Okay, maybe with simple CAI wTune and straight dual exhaust, might obtain .0213 time in the 1/4 with rest being stock, but the mind will make you believe it is really really fast!! You know what I mean? You want to make a difference, install Nitro
