Pony Up Your Mustang

So I bought a Mustang GT several years ago. The first model of the new body style. I had the most horse power of any of the somewhat common Mustang GT's out there. Well a few years had passed now, and the new Mustang body style came out. I love my body style still, and I'm going to be keeping this car. The only thing that urks me is that now, there are some Mustang GT's out there, (the mustangs in the same class as mine) That have more power than mine. I don't really care if a GT500 guy stomps me at the light. That's a given, but the Mustang GT guys shouldn't be able to beat me, because that's what I have. So the time has come to pony up my Mustang.

There are several power adders out there. There are tuners, cold air intakes (CAI's), exhaust systems, and all the way up to turbo chargers, superchargers, water / methanol injection kits and more. We're going to focus on the tuners today. They are the easiest to install. They are the fastest to install, and they add the most power for a mild bolt on part. One of the most popular mustang tuners out there is the diablosport predator tuner. They add about 20 horse power and about 1 to 2 miles per gallon on fuel economy to the conservative driver.....or the times you choose to drive conservatively. They have the ability to remove the top speed limiter and make it so you can push your mustang to its maximum speed on the drag strip.

The Mustang tuner is the starting point for anyone looking to pony up, because it makes way for the additional parts that will be coming later. You can get additional tunes for your mustang to maximize the power gains when the other bolt ons are added, such as the cold air intake and the exhaust system. And for the guys looking to build the big power by adding a forced induction system like a supercharger or turbo charger, the tuner is required to upload the custom tune that allows the engine to function with the major alterations that have been made. You wouldn't even make it out of the parking lot with a forced induction system without have the car tuned for it. Another benefit to the mustang tuner is the ability to clear the trouble codes, which save time and money by avoiding a trip to the dealership to get the tests done.

In conclusion, the diabloport was the answer for me, and made it so I could pony up. I started with that, and then added the cold air intake and exhaust, so now I beat the new mustang gt's everywhere I go. Next step is the twin turbo, and then I'll be stomping on all the GT500's out there too.
