Dude it is basically stock. Cold Air and a Diablo chip burned moderately aggressive it might be worth another 25 RWHP at best.

Welcome aboard and enjoy your stay!

Since it has the chip get an 2.8 upper pulley and a cat back. That will wake that thing right up:thumbsup:

Did you buy it from a dealer or an individual? If from a dealer, are they still going to give you a warranty even w/ the chip?

You got that car from the dealer with a PCM chip? They say the warranty is intact, you need to get that in writing. I spoke with Ford the other day about this exact topic. If something major goes wrong with your car and it requires a Ford Rep to come examine it before authorizing repairs and it is at all related to the chip, Ford will not cover it. The dealer will leave you holding the bag. So do yourself a favor and have them put it in writing.

Are you sure its on the stock pulley? Maybe its got a smaller pulley on it, I cant see spending the money on a chip, installing it, and not having a smaller pulley to go with it.

Props, but take care of warranty in writing if you want to keep it. Chipped cars totally void your Ford "Monkeys with Hammers", I mean warranty.

The dealers many times don't know or care what they are selling used, and will say anything to sell the car. Don't bother calling them, they won't return your calls. Make an appointment with the Honcho. Trust me on this. I got shafted bad once. No reason for details. Get it in writing as a fully warranteed vehicle.
