That site is like the nismo vs sport package debate in every thread.

Probably is

^ Thanks GZ3... can you tell me how much this improves our stock 5.0 setup?

GZ3 · 10-24-2011, 11:38 AM

its mainly intended for the higher RPMS where the stock falls flat....at about 6600 or so the HP gains SKYROCKET! But through tunning they have adjusted and made gains every where..not much, but gains are gains. The loss of tq down low has been addressed through tunning.... but like i said when you hit 6600 or so and with a 7500redline like i have set, its all benefit...i mean the gains are like some in the range of 50-70rwhp!

There is no 'one' forum for info for the Mustang.
This is a good tech forum, they do not tolerate stupid sh*t: WWW.S197FORUM.COM - Powered by vBulletin
Mustangsource/forum/etc. are good for general info on the car or gather ideas for the car.

i'd leave the Boss mani alone for now, i've read about many cases where guys have actually had a slower trap and worse ET after installing one.

Interesting. I haven't heard that at all. Local guy here picked up 3 mph following the Boss install.

The only way I'd see it slowing you down is if there is a leak somewhere.

Red__Zed · 10-24-2011, 01:38 PM

Or if you're short shifting every gear....

Has anyone been looking at wheels and tires for their 5.0 yet?

i'm planning on going with f14s if I keep my car past the pzero's life.

m4a1mustang · 10-24-2011, 07:06 PM

I have looked around a bit. At some point I might get Forgestar F14s with RE11s or Pilot Super Sports. I will probably still be rocking the OEM Brembo wheels next spring, only with Pilot Super Sports in 275/35 replacing the PZeros.
