Congrats man, I can't wait for mine!

Don't listen to Preston, i am not nuts- lol I mean cmon bro, i have only been awake from Monday.. at 4am today, i will be up for 48 hrs . I have a few more days in me before i go nuts without sleep lol..

4.10s will kick azz, even with a blower- just make sure you have some sick tires bro. You prob will want to run DR's... Heck, my neighbor has a 07 GT with a Saleen Stage 3 from brenspeed.. at 8.5lbs of boost he is doing 445rwhp+ and like 450rwtq+ with his 20in rims and stock 3.31s he spins so bad. Now he put the 20in NITTO 555R's on the rear and he can mash the gas in 1st gear =)! It is a real beast! He is soon to upgrade to 3.73s, 1pc ds, and a Twin disc clutch(he is still on stock clutch with no slipping)

You will not be able to calibrate your speedometer until you get a handheld tuner.

Ford Dealerships can only recalibrate gear ratios up to 3.73s.. Anything numerically higher, they can't do.

You got that right, but keep in mine- if you retune it often, you will have to keep adjusting the speedo for the gears. Unless it is programed into the tune. I had my company program it into the tune. =)

Sounds good. I'll probably need some help when i get my tuner. I've heard it can be kind of confusing.

Thanks guys. I appreciate it.

For the record, the tuner will have 4.1 gear options correct? And does having a tuner to go along with the gears get even more performance out of the gears?

it will not get more performance out of the gears it will just correct the spedometer but it will give you more power in general. i have a diablosport tuner on my auto mustang and i downloaded the performance tune and it made a huge difference so you will def get more power from the tuner it just wont make the gears better or anything.. if that makes sense idk if i explained that good lol but if you dont understand ill try explaining it again or maybe someone else could give it a try lol
