Default 2004 Mustang V6 SCT tuner

after some thinking and debating for 2 weeks i decided to hold off on the 4.10s and t-lock, instead i think im gonna order a tuner tonight from Justin at VMPtuning. i was just wondering if any of u guys know how much my 0-60 and 1/4 mile will improve. by the way mods are listed on the bottom and i have an auto.

there really is no way of telling how much you 1/4 will improve w/o taking it to the track and finding out; it would be easier guess gains if you were doing bigger mods but by just adding a tuner you really can't say. However I do think the SCT tuner with a custom tune would be an excellant mod, good power gains and better mileage and when you put gears in you can recalibrate for them.

i already have an escort gt-1 which tells me my 0-60, 1/4 mile and g forces, etc... thats why i didnt get livewire. i just ordered my sct x cal II custom tuner from Justin. hopefully i will notice a difference in performance when i get it. btw way is it easy to use. i was reading up on it and it seems pretty easy.

Ive been giving some serious thought to getting a tuner....Seems like a must have for modding.

When you're ready to step up your game, it's definitely a must have.

I think you're going to have to get the Sniper to be able to do that. I seem to remember that product had the capability.

i just got my SCT tuner and i just programed it. i took it for a quick spin and i didnt really have a chance to floor it cuz it was residential but i did feel a big difference in shifting. im going out later tonight and ill post up another reply telling u guys what i noticed and once i get a chance ill do my 0-60 again and see what a difference the tuner did.
