Sold the Porsche, bought a Ford....

All the wiring looked fine and it's been passing MOT's for the past 7 years.

Just managed to get a second hand tuner and (I think) CAI, should help remove the throttle lag and give the car a bit of extra power!

Who's tune is it, please ensure its from one of the well known tuners, doug at bamachips, JDM engineering are amongst some of the best tuners for Mustang and email tunes.
Also second hand? These are normally locked down to the cars ECU, so what exactly do you have?

Haven't decided on where to get the email tune from yet, will take a look at those places.

The tuner comes as unlocked so I'm guessing it's fine, the owner sold his Mustang recently so maybe he never got round to using it or got it unlocked after he sold the car.

Clutch slip?

What makes you say that?

 

[Stormster]

No clutch slip there? It is called wheel spinning when dropping it in the next gear? lol

Gets of the mark nice and easy, try that with a supercharger installed.

Lovely car, would also love to own one of these at some point.

I knew it wasn't going to be any old Ford.

That's a sound I would be happy to live with

Kinda is, in my eyes.

Especially when the 350z (3.5 V6) makes 276bhp and is from the same era.

The facelifted V8 is a lot more powerful.

Japs > *

The crout V8s of the era are no better than peerzys engine for example

Or am i just trying to justify the crapness of my engines to myself?

Awesome car, love mustangs. My dream weekend car is a 69' Mustang Fastback.....sigh one day!

I have to say I'm curious about the new mustang, it looks gorgeous and if the specs and price are decent I could be tempted!

Currently looking for a decent M3

 

[Freefaller]

If it's the car you wanted, and it puts a smile on your face, it's an upgrade really. Whether or not it says the opposite on paper or not is irrelevant, it is what you get out of it.

Glad it's had some suspension mods - what does it handle like? Is it still a bit boat-like and a bit vague? Or have those mods improved it?

Enjoy it.

The current black alloys are 18" 'Borbet' which I've never heard of either

Borbet make some highly sought after wheels, pretty much any Toyota/Lexus "sport" wheels are made by them along with a lot of other manufacturers premium wheels.

Glad you're happy with it. Think I prefer the Porsche though. The Mustang would be great for laugh every now and again but don't think I could live with one everyday. Don't mind the black alloys though, looks good.
