SCT Chip eh... wtf... everytime i phone them they tell me they dont make a chip that works with a 96\97 tbird???? can you give me the specs of the chip, and did you have it dyno tuned, or did they just burn you a chip based off the mods you had done? Mine has PI head and cam upgraded 4.6 with every possible bolt on but i cant find someone to tune it. info would be rad...

Hey sharp T-Bird. I got a couple questions for you if you dont mind. Im putting money into my bird and i was wondering how much that SCT tuner helped you out and how much your shift kit helped you out? -thanks

About how much miles to the gallon do you think you lost by having these gears?
