That tune adds a lot of power if I remember theyre severely detuned from the factory.

But can you run such an aggressive tune without blowing it up?

Reliability is still unknown since its too new I would guess but as long as the tune has no lean spots and the fuel can keep up I dont see why not? Can I ask what that has for a fuel pump though to support the power?

I will say that it's a pretty nice looking car, much nicer than the bland looking 500/Taurus style.

Does that thing come with a Mustang motor? The styling looks alittle too much like Mazda to me.
