AMS is all I use. All their parts look, work and fit great. Quality parts = quality results. I was @ 267whp before my TP, FMIC and BOV. I should be close to the 290-300 with a tune.

 

Nice bro..How much have you spent so far?

 

i use ams all the time and i putt down 315awhp 300tq on the mustang dyno.

 

The free GST tune made a huge difference. For the guys with 270 or so power does the car have a lot of get up and go in normal mode or do you still have to put it in sport to really get that huge kick. I just have the V2 tune. I just wish normal mode would be more fun sometimes without having to push in the gas so far all the time or leave it in sport were you have to get the revs so high. Driving around town in sport mode isnt too great and seems rough on the engine. Hope that makes sense.

 

Lets see.

Test pipe 200
Cat back 500
Intake 400
Boost pill 20
Ecu flash 500
So I spent around
$ 1,620 dollars

 

My car hauls *** in normal when you put it in sport it's an even bigger beast from What I'm tould my numbers now since I added the test pipe and AMS tuned my car for full exhaust I should be at 280-290 awhp range .

 

I've been more than happy with my tune from AMS.

 

Thats what I wanted to hear just trying to tell myself I just need to mod it and keep myself from just selling and getting an EVO X. I really like the Ralliart and the fact that not a ton of people have them. In its own way its rare like the EVO.
I am just getting used to the manual auto. My last 3 cars have been manuals.

 

you know even though you get 280 290 max peak hp with the stock turbo a just could not stand only having 12 psi at redline the car just fell flat on its face. so i put in an evo x turbo and that helped alot but now its still not enough on the top end so now i am going with an fp green this spring. the mod bug has really hit me. but i will be getting tuned at ams again those guys are awesome and they have great customer service. the last timed they tuned me the flashed newer sst tables to my car and it shifts much better. it is almost worth getting re tuned every six months just to get the new sst tables.

 

Ok cool...this is all good info

 

AMS is good stuff man go wit it ! and price tags are on there website too lol

 

Save yourself the trouble and shift the car yourself most of the time. I never drive my car in "normal" mode, and the only time I use "auto sport" is when I want to floor it without having to keep my eye on the tachometer to watch for redline since the car will shift at redline automatically and I can keep my eyes on the road...

 

shifting yourself will put less stress on the trans also especially if your flooring it in normal mode

 

What?

I am currently at 21.8 or so PSI at redline with the stock turbo...

 

for you guys that drive around in sport mode and shift yourselves all the time do you think it hurts anything shifting in the lower rpms when the computer would usually want it done in the upper rpms? I will have to try it out and see how that feels. I enjoy being able to be both auto and manual sometimes i just miss the traditional shifting through the gears. The z was pretty tourque though. Nothing I cant fix
