why would you trust an aftermarket tune and not Ford? Ford tunes their engines to minimize warranty repair. Aftermarket tunes are designed to maximize power.i would bring it up and be weary buying any used 5.0. these cars are notorious for being tuned, and driven hard and dealers know this, that is why that is pretty much the first thing they check now. that being said im dying to tune mine, but my warranty is piece of mind to me atleast during the life of my auto loan. its sad because i trust the tuner but i dont trust fords workmanship, and im not going to give them the benifet of denying something major due to a tune that in reality probably didint even cause the problem.
If buying used Mustang, just assume that its been tuned, and that if it requires an engine or transmission repair, it won't get covered by warranty and make an offer that accounts for such risk.
Risk / reward ...
