Mods that will actually help..
ok, i was wondering what mods would actually help. i have a 2001 V6 auto. i know im getting dual exhaust and 4.10 gears and a C.A.I. would i need a SCT tuner for the gears? would a t-lock also help? i'd need new bearings when i get the 4.10's installed. a throttle body n spacer wouldnt help any would it? what about lowering springs? i wanted them anyway but still. any other suggestions?

well for now i just want to get my mustang looking good :cool: so for now i'm just gonna do exterior stuff and the exhaust. here's my list right of now- - MAC catback + H-pipe - Black billet fuel door - Tailight smoked Tinting - Grill Delete Kit - A few Emblems. - Hoodpins(2) - Stalker Side Scoops - 3rd brake light decal (says "mustang" ) - Black 8" shorty antenna - Black Reflective Bumper Inserts - GT Rear bumper - Saleen SideSkirts - Hypercoated Bullit Rims - Stage 3 Roush Front Bumper w/ foglights (Get some smoked tinting for the foglights) - Smoked Headlights - Rear window louvers - C-pillars - Lowering springs - More interrior stuff. and paint the hooodpins, my spoiler, and exhaust tips black. By the way, my Car is Yellow. i was thinking of putting some stripes on it too but not sure on that yet. i was thinking the 2 8" stipes then the 1/4" stripes on the outside of them(if you know what i'm talking about) i'll do perf. mods later. |
To each his own...it's not the route I'd go but hey...everyone has a different taste and style...good luck with whatever route you choose.
PS...since it's a v6...wouldn't you be looking for a Y pipe??? |

- MAC catback + H-pipe :)
- Black billet fuel door :cool: - Tailight smoked Tinting :D - Grill Delete Kit :D - A few Emblems. :shakeno: - Hoodpins(2) :chairshot: - Stalker Side Skirts :rolleyes: - 3rd brake light decal (says "mustang" ) :beatup: - Black 8" shorty antenna :boink: - Black Reflective Bumper Inserts :silvercup: - GT Rear bumper :nono: - Saleen SideSkirts :Bigsmack: - Hypercoated Bullit Rims :) - Stage 3 Roush Front Bumper w/ foglights (Get some smoked tinting for the foglights) :noooo: - Smoked Headlights :pepper: - Rear window louvers :nomore: - C-pillars :violent-smiley-045: - Lowering springs :D - Put all the money listed above into a s/c :worship2: Lol... just kidding. but really, take all the money that you are going to put into the mostely useless things listed above and buy a s/c. Your car already looks good... its a mustang. Just fix what it needs... SPEED. It doesnt really matter how good a car looks if it cant back it up with the power. Thoses things above would be nice but first i would work on the engine. But hey, its your car so just do whatever makes you happy.... thats all that really matters. |
i planned on doing this and save up 4500 next winter for a S/C.
|
hell yea.
what are you going to be using? |
|
my Girlfriends Dad just got a S/C Grand Prix after i got my mustang. he keeps asking to race. he will have to wait till spring of 09' :rolleyes: |
get the t-lock installed when you get your gears.

dont get the throttle body and spacer its not going to make that much power for the money. and you going to need a tuner when you get the gears. |
H pipe is useless on a v6 Go with a X pipe... H is quieter but cuts down on the power...I have had the H on mine and I have more complements on the X pipe... the one i have is from Pypes
|
X pipes are raspy and sound bad if you ask me. the H has a deeper and more American sound.

It's really just a choice between power and sound...I chose power...it's only a loss of like 2 hp anyways...and that's on a V8
|
they do a little but your still not going to get the v8 sound from adding pipes I have considered going back to H just because its a little quieter. which I doubt helps it any from dumping it before the rear axles
