Default Christmas in July for me

picked up my sct tuner with bama tunes and my steeda cai today. Now if anyone was wondering if it is worth the $$ I can honestly say it is ... I was quite skeptical and did quite a bit of research but wasn't totally sold, I had to try it for myself, now don't get me wrong its not gonna turn your v6 into a 4.6L or a new coyote but it does make it way more responsive and way more fun to drive throttle response is much crisper ... steeda intake is a very nice piece and tuner works great.. I'm quite happy with the end result, oh and btw I have 91 in the tank but have it set on 87 street for the ride back to canada, I plan on trying the 91 performance file tomorrow, when i can get some 94 ill try the 93 race file too

Nice! Your engine bay is reallly clean for an 05. I used to rock 94 from sunoco, but when they got bought out by petrocan, the 94 oct was never the same. ONLY shell 91 vpower now!

Nice choice on the intake. Thanks for choosing Steeda!

Glad to hear you are satisfied. If you wouldn't mind posting up a review on our site for the CAI that would be awesome!

Great input 05screaminyellow! Thanks for your support, we appreciate it. You gotta try out the 91 or 93 Race tune ASAP, you still have more to experience for sure!

Thanks for posting, and hit me up if you have any questions at all. Shoot me a PM, I'd be glad to help out!
