All,
This is my second ecoboost mustang. I had a 2016 with the six speed, a COBB stage 1 tune and 19" GT350 style wheels.
My current ride is a 2018 ecoboost Mustang convertible with the same COBB stage 1 tune. Frankly, it feels terrible compared to the 2016.
No doubt, the primary reason is the automatic transmission which effectively ruins the car.
I even purchased a $150 tune add-on from Purple Drank. Frankly, that made it even worse. He did not provide me with a refund, despite it being a software add.
Anyway, does anyone have any suggestions on how to improve this car beyond where it's at? I am looking for reasonable solutions under $1,000.
Should I get a different tune? Maybe a Ford Performance tune, JB4, XCT, Bama?
What other ideas do you guys have?
Thanks in advance!
