Intake/tune or mgw shifter
Trying to decided what my next mod should be and I'm kinda hung up between an mgw shifter or an air raid cai and tune(probably truestreet). Trying to spread my mods out a bit time wise so I was wondering what you guys would do

Yea the price is one of the main reasons its one or the other right now... Does anyone know how much you pick up from a typical true street tune

See that's why I ask these things cuz I'm a super newb to the coyote motors.... So a lethal orh and a tune... Hmmmm maybe I should pick up some mufflers cuz I think the muffler delete will be a bit loud
|
I am a firm believer in building the foundation before the house.
I would work on the driveline before adding more power. Get the most out of what you have and when you start adding power, you will be that much further ahead. |
I concur with WBT's statement. That MGW shifter is one of the best investments I've made.

I have roush suspension under the car and it handles great so the only other thing I need foundation wise is wider tires I think...as for gt500 mufflers those as exactly what I was thinking

I haven't heard the gt500s with an orh except YouTube vids but everyone says it doesn't do justice to the setup so I need to find somebody to let me listen to there setup

Yea the stock shifter leaves quite a bit to be desired but it is one of the best stock shifters I have seen on a car in this price range

Shifter 1st IMHO. An alternate would be to install the shifter bracket with the OEM shifter.
|
So now I'm thinking shifter then wheels and fat tires then orh and a tune... How does that sound?

What do you guys think of the diablo intune? Friend of mine has one for dirt cheap cuz he sold his car to get a new harley

But even then, the datalog capabilities for that handheld are not nearing as wide variety wise as SCT, so I would recommend getting a custom tune locally by a Diablosport capable tuner, or contact JPC Racing who are the best tuners on the Diablosport right now. |

I would do the tune first, IMO best bang for your buck. Sounds like you will have future mods down the road so you may want to consider someone like American Muscle with tunes for life until your done modding and then get a more dialed in tune. If you buy the SCT from AM you basically get the tune or tunes for life for free.

I really appreciate you guy giving me input it has pretty much helped me decide to start with a tune with an offroad h and gt500 axle back. What do you think?

Yea some lower control arms will probably be soon on the list and some wheels and tires will come very soon
|
Just leave the car stock and go for a all new best e/t for a bone stock 5.0!! I think you can do it! lol. all ideas stated are good. keep us posted.
|
Well I just picked up some longtubes a custom xpipe and some ford racing sport mufflers from dark pony so I think tune will defiantly be the next thing on my list but first I wanna get a baseline run to see where I'm at.
