    tunes

    Is there a tune for a 2004 3.9L mustang for a ghost cam?

    Dude, you need to get your facts straight. I don't know what you have against these tunes, if I can tune my car to make it sound like it has an aftermarket cam, why would I spend 1K to install one?

    Just pull a couple opposing spark plug wires off OP, it is what the cool guys have been doing for years. All the sound with none of the power, just like the ghost cam tunes.

    99-04 V-6's are 3.8s... if you want a differnt cam sound your going to have to change the cam.

    Isn't the ghost cam tune possible because of the TiVCT on the 2011+ cars?
