Lightbulb Paging all St. Louis, MO stangs

Who would be interested in having Doug from Bamachips come here for a dyno day? We need 5-6 cars to make it happen.

Depends on when it would be. I am still waiting on my CAI, and would be getting an sctx2 from him. So I guess just depending on when. But I am interested.

That's cool. I want to see how many people are interested first, then lock down a date.

No performance mods yet, so dyno would not be that exiting for me, but I would definetly come hang out for a while and see what everyone else is pulling and get some ideas for the future when the $$ situation is better. Also would be interested in doing some sort of cruise night/get together!!

I would say nov 11th , just to get money in order etc. I will have a granatelli CAI, axlebacks, 06 gt.
I will be needing a x2, and wondering what is the cost we are talking for dyno etc, if we are buying products is it cheaper etc. Any info on the visit would be great. thanks for working it all up.

if you are planning mods, its nice to get a base line to find out how much of a difference the new mods have made.
2x on the Cruise nite/ get together, that would be a blast.
As for my mods, see below, adding an SCT tuner with custom tune and a K&N intake.
What kind of price are we looking at?
Muscle Mustang in High Ridge will do three pulls on a dyno for $65. Don't know if he charges more for any work, or just the dyno.

I can make either date work.

Either date works for me. I have an '05 GT, Auto, and MRT Cold-air intake. I already have one of Doug's tunes with the SCT, but I would love to get my car setup by him instead of a "canned" tune. Muscle Mustang is not an SCT shop, so he might need one that already has SCT software. Plus, the setup is dangerous down there with the rock parking lot. Had a rock hit my rear window when I was on the dyno!

21st is my vote, I'll have to request off work so that gives me more time. I'd probably do a baseline run, just for grins!

Midwest 4 wheel is an SCT dealer and has a dyno. MUSCLE MUSTANG is nothing more that a joke when it come to an 05+

I wouldn't let Midwest 4WD touch my car again!

I took a 95 Z28 to them last year for a cam install and they botched almost every aspect of the job. They broke stuff and my gearbox was even messed up when I got it back. They had some young kid in there doing the work when I thought the older, experienced guy was going to do it. The car even overheated when I got it back from a loose hose clamp.
Sorry but I had to vent, Had to sell the car a few months latter because of all the stuff they did wrong..........

PS, How about doing a Mustang cruise at Creave coure park one day?

Creve Coeur Park would be great, Also thought Westport, find an area on the 270 side and park all the cars together?
