“Honey, I just brought the car in for a tune”

[exm]

Disclaimer: if my wife discovers this thread, I am dead. Gone. MIA. Bye.

I told my wife I had to drop off my car for a “tune”. She ridiculed me “oh, you won’t notice this anyway and throw money away”. Didn’t discuss finances, thankfully.

Meanwhile, I am picking this up tomorrow. Will she notice a difference you think?

Pull the A/C fuse, let wifey drive it in the heat and then you make an emergency appointment at the dealer to get it fixed. Put the fuse back, install the SC and tell her that the dealer had to reflash the PCM as well and the car feels so much faster now.

Just a thought from my devious mind.

Driving it.... yes, at some point unless she's a slow poke.

In all seriousness - Assuming your question is a real concern. Does your wife drive the Mustang by herself? If yes, you must inform her. Not doing so could result in a call from your wife......... honey, I have no idea how I wrapped the Mustang around a tree.

As a passenger - Only if you send it with her in the car.

Nice upgrade... enjoy!!

Thanks. She drives it… I will warn her… Maybe I will take her out for a drive first. Can’t wait to drive it tomorrow!

I have a hard enough time keeping the wheels planted without having that thing strapped on top of the motor.

She might notice.

I'm with @ChitownStang on this one. If my gf was like "You wanna spend $15k on what? How come no diamond ring?". Sheeeeeit, I had to start my own company to justify the amount of money I spend on detail products alone.

In fairness; I told her my own SC was a check box option on the order sheet from Ford ;)

Sounds like a good idea. The newfound power can become addictive . At some point your wife needs to go full send or close (somewhere safe with no obstacles or other vehicles).

Haha, yeah she may notice.

Years ago I installed a FP tune on the wife's S550... she noticed!

Let’s just say I considered a DH SC. I don’t consider myself rich but I have had some good luck day trading with stocks.

YOLO
