Ahh, I believe both the GT and Shelby come in manual 6-speeds now. Not sure though.

Even the V6 comes in 6-speed. Literally the only difference between the V6 and V8 Mustangs this year is the engine choice. Same quality on everything else.

Okay cool, thanks. Is he the one with the SRTC sedan?

I almost have all the parts I need for my car, and I've been doing some research..
I think I've decided to go with a GMS3 tune, then trifecta a/c unlock with a trifecta S3 tune to open it up a little more.

Opinions?

**** the GM tune. Trifecta and HPT are much better.

I just want the GM tune so I can have the adjustable rev limiter and High Octane Mode, I dont care for the nitrous feature, as I'll never use it. But the others seem like real positives.

Just have Trifecta/HP Tuner set the RPM to whatever you need and tune you to 93 Octane. Race Gas isn't really a benefit on LSJ's from my experience.

I've heard race gas is really good with the LSJ, lol.
And I'm not sure what rev limiter I would like.

Eh, it doesn't do much with the stock blower. My friend tried it and only gained .1 off his E.T. with 110. Switched to E85 and ran a 12.7 compared to 13.1 on 110 and 13.2 on 93.

Have him set the limiter at 8k and just be sure to shift before the power starts dropping off.

Haha, I dont think I could stand to have my limiter set at 8k, I think when you get one from ottp/zzp its usually 7k right? or 7.2k.

Yes, that's him.

GMS1 IMO. Vince can do everything else himself for less money and you'll be happier than ever. Be prepared to buy a new clutch though. lol. Kirk's waiting on my car to get out of my buddy's garage so he can get his new clutch in.

What all you have done to the car anyway? From everything I've read, charge pipe, down pipe, intake, FMIC, injectors and plugs will do well with a tune. i may be wrong, but people seem to get good results that way on a 22-23psi tune.

I want fun power with the option of crazy power. I'll go turbo and pick up a digital boost controller and WOT box. 5 psi for DD at like 300hp, 12psi or scaring the **** out of cars and making them think I'm on fire cuz the smoke pouring from the wheels.

The blown motor put me way behind, but I'm trying.
I'm hoping to get a much better job and get back into school this fall, so I may put the hold on things after the fall meet until I make some money at the new job and can afford a DD. Going turbo will definitely stress the motor some and last thing I need is invest all that money and not have a backup.

The seats are what I really want. The stock seats are decent with the hip bolsters, but the side bolstering is too shallow and I slide a lot. Plus the seats are an UGLY gray/black two-tone and have this rough corduroy feel to them.

I'd love to have some tc's or recaro's just because they look like they hug you a little more.

Those Recaros are ridiculously expensive. I'm leaning toward Megan Racing. or saving up big time and getting Bride's off someone on Craigslist. Probably the MR. lol.
