2010 Mustang GT Tuning questios

[almalone918]

I have a 2010 Mustang GT and it has full bolt ons. CAI, Bbk long tube headers, borla exhaust, cat delete, Twin 62mm throttle body, Ford Racing Manifold, N2MB Wot box for no lift shift. I spoke to the original builder and 1st owner that did everything except the wot box and he said he never tuned the car. I tried contacting 2nd owner and no luck. I suspect it possibly has a Popcorn Tune due to all the popping and crackling it does but I'm not sure. I'm looking at ordering a SCT X4 tuner + Lito tune. I have never tuned a car before so it's going to be interesting.

Anyone that has tuned your car, how difficult was it to do the first time? I'm sure between my husband, myself and Lito Support we will be fine but I am a little nervous.

Lito and an X4 is a very good plan and will likely solve any issues you have. You will also need a Windows computer to transfer tunes and data logs from the X4 to Lito. Maybe scary at first but you will find lots of help here from folks that have been doing it for years.

Make sure you have a battery charger connected while uploading tunes.

Thanks guys. I have a Windows laptop now but I will probably get one specifically for car stuff.

On another note, if you do get a pre-owned (used) SCT X4 make sure it’s not married to another vin number.

New it doesn’t matter, it will be just your vin once it’s connected.

I will probably buy a new tuner just to be safe.
