'14 exhaust tune?
Hey guys, quick question. 2014 5.0L -----> If I install a set of GT500 muffs to a completely stock system, will I require a tune?
Gains without a tune?
I have a tuner for my 2013 3.7L but not yet for the coyote. Wish I could use the same tuner on both vehicles.

And there are no real power gains from a muffler change.

The tune will give you the most HP increase ... the exhaust system will provide minimal gains.

Let me know if you have any questions or if I can provide you with additional support?

You can reach me at tim@steeda.com.

Best Regards,

TJ

Hi, I'm really loving it, especially after all the mods to exhaust and suspension, thanks for asking. I'm ready now to make her faster, starting with a blower, or at least a high stall converter and 1-piece driveshaft. Here's a photo from yesterday's Steeda Stampede. Not missing the Boss at all.

Thanks Patrick. I thought the satin black chevrons would compliment the GHIG.

OP, Sorry for hijacking your thread.

Sorry. I got carried away. To contribute, no tune needed for cat back replacements.

No worries. Lol I was thinking about your car actually. I saw a shiny Z getting fitted with fancy tires yesterday. ...anyway... With the new SC, I bet you REALLY don't miss your old Z!
