SLP axleback system, does this need a tune? - 5/3/2008 9:30:29 AM    nemisisn3misis   Posts: 52 Joined: 5/2/2007 Status: offline So I bought a slp loudmouth axle-back system and I was wondering if I need to do another tune on this? And if so...are there any walkthroughs on modifying a current tune? Thanks all! _____________________________ 2006 Mustang GT 3.55 gears Motiva Custom 91 Tune Granatelli CAI SLP loudmouth Axle-Back max HP 277 RWHP 291 Post #: 1

RE: SLP axleback system, does this need a tune? - 5/4/2008 5:09:15 PM    VistaGT Posts: 425 Joined: 2/1/2008 Status: offline You want to loosen the muffler hangers, then the midpipe, align the tips, tighten the muffler hangers and lastly tighten the midpipe back up. By loosening the midpipe you'll be able to get them near perfect. _____________________________ 06 Vista Blue GT 5-Speed C&L CAI, Steeda Strut Tower Brace, UDPs, LCAs Flowmaster American Thunder, FRPP 4.10s Hurst Shifter, SCT w/ BRENSPEED Tune (in reply to nemisisn3misis) Post #: 14
