That's beautiful!

Like someone else said, it's probably better to not overreact or overthink these issues. All modern cars have a lot more components and most of these are electronics. So they can fail or send a warning. And sometimes it's just a loose connection. All car manufacturers are having recalls, and...

very interesting toys in this thread. In the last few years I had owned a 1964 Mustang, a 1955 Customline, a 2001 Cobra convertible and a small boat (no pics handy for the Cobra and the boat). Not all at the same time, of course. I still own a 2024 Mustang GT, a Land Cruiser and a VW T-Cross...

It is feasible if the tune stays under the environmental regulations, which is unlikely. However a normal stage 1 tune won't be noticed and checked by authorities or police, because noise level is not impacted. Also I'm expecting Ford and other car manufacturers to stay below the line of...

Hello and welcome. Personally I would not buy a new (or recent) car with depreciation as first thought. Any car will depreciate the second you leave the dealership, and some more than others. If you want an investment, buy a nice classic car. :wink: Regarding the 4 cars you mentioned, I would...

I would love one of these, but too pricey in Australia :crying:

Correct. Unfortunately, the GT we receive down under is rated at 465hp and 550nm. So my GT now, after the tune, is similar to a base GT in the US.

After a stage 1 tune on my manual GT (Australian delivered) I had 30kW and 59nm gain, measured at the wheels.

Nice! And awesome wheels! I thought about having a RTR dress-up, but then I went down a different path. The only thing I don't really like about the RTR packages is the massive banner on the windscreen; way too big and obnoxious.

FP Track lowering springs installed on my GT; picture in this thread: https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/ford-performance-2024-mustang-gt-track-lowering-springs-installed-photos-review.161296/page-4#post-3538472

I just had the track lowering springs installed; after a first road test they are not bad on the atrocious Sydney's road.

I bought the same filters from the same guy last year. Definitely an improvement! easy to install.

that's why I said "apparently" in my comment above 😉 I agree that there are a few variables, however I have to go with the graphs I've been provided.

It's 30kw gain at the wheels.

I had a tune done on my GT (Australian specs) with no hardware and apparently I gained 30kW, so roughly 40hp. Graph is in the other thread. 82hp doesn't seem realistic.

it's worth mentioning that this is an Australian delivered GT. Down under we receive the V8 rated at 347kW (engine), which is less than the US. Also torque is lower, rated at 550nm. Reason is stricter environmental regulations.

It seems more responsive than before, I’m still testing it. I have a manual and no modifications, just better quality air filters. I will install lowering springs shortly, but of course they won’t have any affect on power itself.

Tunehouse in Sydney. Car is a standard GT with active exhaust; no other modifications done to the car.

Apparently Torque drivetrain loss is 10/15%, and according to the graph mine is 13.4%. So the theoretical torque went from 550nm to 615nm

The GT arrives in Australia with 347kW at the engine, less than the US due to emissions regulation. I’ve been told that at the wheels is 18/20% less for any RWD car. So the 278kW starting figure seems right; and having a 30kW increase at the wheels is pretty decent. I still need to do the math...
