New member 2013 sho pp

[maggs201]

Hello Brothers, looking for advice. Just bought 2013 sho with pp 15,000 miles. I'd like to achieve around 450hp in the safest way possible. I have $1500 to start, where should I start looking to spend it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. I'm new to this and I'm not that knowledgeable with computers. Thanks again guys

Welcome & congrats! 450hp at the crank? Hit up Unleashed or LME for a tune, 3-bar MAP, and T-stat. Make sure plugs are gapped at 0.030, or get new pre-gapped plugs from either tuner. Done! You can donate the remainder to the forum J/K!

What color is your SHO? What other rides did you consider in your quest? Pics would be very welcome

Thanks. My baby is Tuxedo Black,5% tint back and 20% on front. Loaded to the max. can I do the tune myself? I'm not up on my computer skills. Lol. I have a pic up, can you see it?

I was looking at 2 other cars. 2014 Lincoln MAY and 2013 BMW 335Xi. But when I test drove the sho, I was sold.

Yes, you can load the tune yourself. Follow the instructions provided (or ask if not). Either tuner can help you if you get stuck (best way to go), or you can post your questions here. Tunes are usually sent by EMail. You have to either download them directly to the tuning device, or onto an SD card (depending on device).

If you buy tuning device + tune and know the ECU/PCM strategy code, you are in luck! The tune can be preloaded on the device before being sent to you.

The only thing left to do then is to get the tune onto the SHO after connecting the tuning device via the car's OBD-II port.
