Tune recommendations for 2019 Mustang gt pp1

[Masman]

I have a 2019 Mustang gt and was looking to get a tune and cai without breaking the bank. Any recommendations?

Save yourself $ on the CAI, keep it stock. 2018+ intake is so well engineered anything aftermarket will be worse with IAT (Temperature)
Now you can invest into a proper tune, make sure you have access to 93 octane+ or e85. Going with tune without either is not worth it. Not even 20 whp will be gained

Longtube headers are the best bolt-on for the gen3, without going forced induction. Along with a pcm recalibration
On 93, a tuner that knows the coyote engine will extract you between 40-43 whp (more can be expected with e85)

Get an E85 tune form AED, PBD or Lund. Keep the stock airbox, put in a free flowing filter and remove the carbon trap.
E85 is awesome.

Just did longtubes and e85 with Lund. 91-93 tune was great but e85 its a whole new animal. It rips!!!

I pulled the trigger on E85 tune but i'm still debating if should get headers or not...What headers did you go with it ? and how loud is the car now...i have a Steeda x-pipe with the active exhaust and in Sport/Track it's plenty loud, i'm kinda worried headers might make it obnoxious

We have the new Steeda open-element cold air intake here - https://www.steeda.com/steeda-555-3228-s550-open-cold-air-intake

I paired this with the Steeda tune on my Mustang GT & the drivability (Auto) was a tremendous upgrade. You won't be disappointed in the combo - very happy with the results.

Waiting for LUND to test the new Steeda intake.

I went with the stainless performance headers from lethal. I also had the Steeda x pipe and active exhaust. Ummm..... lol. After the headers n no cats, normal mode was like track mode times 100. Lmao. I removed the Steeda x pipe and installed the magnaflow true x resonator. It’s perfect now and pulls hard. Headers were totally worth it.

Serious question, TJ. How is this different from the Pro-Flow CAI you guys also sell? Is it just about fitment for the newer models? Does this truly seal to the hood or do the IAT's rise rapidly while idle?
