So i scored me an 05 GT....

[Ricky Bobby]

Got a Silver over black leather Premium car, 5 speed. 1 owner car was traded to our BMW store. Now....what to do first. Its a stone stock ride at the moment. I am thinking a Pro 5.0 and a 4.10 gear....you guys agree?

 

[5spd07gt]

do that and get a intake/tuner combo, unless you're planning on FI

 

[W1ldcat]

Yep, intake and tune, or put a blower on. You'll be pretty happy with gears and intake and tune. For a while anyway.

 

[ZmanM3]

Congrats. I agree with the CAI and tuner.

 

[05stroker]

Blower, suspention, shifter ,and gears . Then for the love of god man STOP and have fun.

 

[anticubicle]

CAI+Tune, 4.10's, Nitrous, Slicks, GO!!!!!

 

[Herknav]

CAI/tuner for buck-bang... unless (as stated) you wanna go FI...

I like my Pro 5.0 though...

 

[94tbird]

cai and tuner, pro 5.0 shifter 4.10s

 

[freebass55]

If I had a chance to do it all over again...I'd start with the suspension. Get that all done, then go from there.

 

[Hawgman]

I probably know where a Pro 5.0 shifter is forsale

 

[Ricky Bobby]

I think I am going to do this....douche the car first...she is dirty. Then tint, and the Pro 5.0 and springs. Then the CAI an tuner, looks like the C&L race pipe is cheaper and makes more power...is that right? What tuning firm has everyone had a good experience with? On my 03 Cobra I had a Diablo and the Rick at Amazon ripped me a tune with a Lightning pulley that was very very nice!...Then 4.10 gears and 20" Shelby Razors...spoiler delete...mmmm

HAWGMAN.....PM sent bro

 

[Hawgman]

HAWGMAN.....PM sent bro

And replied. Also marked the thread as sale pending.


Majority of the people around here are using SCT. As for mail order on a NA setup, I think Doug @ Bamachips seems to be pretty popular.

The C&L Race pipe isn't going to really get you anything over their Street pipe unless you are forcing air in to it.

And skip the 20s

 

[Ricky Bobby]

Hawgman = Pro 5.0....next....

 

[Hawgman]

4.10 gears wouldn't be a bad thing at all, but I would highly recommend a CAI and a tune first. That is going to give you the biggest grin factor.

 

[Ricky Bobby]

The SCT box tune is a good one then? I noticed some places selling then CAI and tuner as a kit

 

[W1ldcat]

Go through someone and get the SCT with their tune. Not just what comes with the SCT. If that makes sence.

 

[Ricky Bobby]

Wildcat...I got ya...I had that Diablo tuner and Rick downloaded his tune to my tuner and viola...So Bamachips has good tunes huh?

 

[08StangGT_CS]

Great Experience with Bama here. Great customer service too.

 

[Saintless]

+1 on the BAMA Cai/Tune combo, running the JLT/Bama Race tune on my wifes 06 Mustang GT. Had the same setup on mine before going FI.

also +1 on Cai/Tune first before gear.... something to think about, you will need a tuner for 4.10 gear adjustment. I prefer SCT. Doug (Bamachips) supports both. Your choice.

IMO, If you plan on suspension modes then okay on 20" razors, otherwise stop at 18". Running 20 on mine, 18 on the wife's.

G/L, let the mod fun begin!!!
