Default New CAI installed and Bama tuned...Holy ****!

My mom said after we took a drive that I may need to buy a radar detector.
Anyway, got my CAI with Tuner from Bamachips, I highly recommend those on the fence or considering buying a setup. The setup was very easy using Lethaldosage's walkthrough https://mustangforums.com/forum/4-0l-...with-pics.html Then I installed the 93 Race Tune and after took it for a drive. The minute I pulled it out of the drive way and stepped on the gas the car took me for a ride. The bite and snap, and response was amazing. I took a drive on the highway and it felt like a different car. Along with the dual exhaust it sounds much much better and it has attitude.

I thank all those you answered many questions I had over the past few months and those who's brains I picked for those answers. I never knew the potential my car had 3 years when I first drove. This car will be with me for a long long time.

Thanks, will post picks and if I can a video

Im not sure I have to I guess get it on a dyno sometime soon. Im using 93 octane gas and on Bamachips website they said there would be about a 25HP gain. I would have to have it tested to see but it feels like a big boost

That looks alot like my car under the hood. My guess is that you gain about 20 hp at the wheels with intake+ tune + exaust.

Nice!

I just installed a FRPP CAI + Procal Tune and WOW! Talk about one hell of a wake up call to that engine. My V6 feels like a totally different car now. A lot more power, greater get up and go, brand new driving experience.

Good to see you're enjoying your performance upgrade.
