just started am i doing the right thing?
 

hey im 18 i have had my 2002 v6 mustang since i was 15 (i know how lucky i am but i work all the time for it) and im now just starting to think about what i want to do heres a list of what i have in mind and tell me if im doing the right thing....

1. exhaust cutouts (ive head some things with them they sound awsome)
2. bbk cold air intake
3. lowering springs
4. throttle bodie
far from now
5. nitrous

thanks guys

uhhh.... f'it, go for nitrous.

Not sure if the cutouts will give you any power. DMH has some that are controlled from a switch on the inside.

The intake and throttlebody are not gonna give you much power. maybe an extra 10-12hp.
For that same price you could get a Venom VCN-1000 nitrous kit. safe kit, instant power.

One thing people should ask themselves before they start dumping a lot of money into the car, especially younger people, is "how long will i have this car?"

If you plan to get a GT in the next couple years i wouldnt do much more than spray it. The nitrous will be able to be installed in any vehical, the intake and throttlebody, not so much.


you should get a pic of yer ride up. and definatly do lowering springs to get rid of the 4x4 look,.

sounds like i am now im 15 well in like a month and have a stang

yea i do plan on having this car for awile i cant ever see me getting rid of it.

yea if i do the intake and throttlebody that will coast about 425 and give me around 17-24hp the nitrous coast 550 and gives 4 times as much hp...makes since just a longer wait befor i get all the money.

how in the world do you have a car if your 2 years away from being able to drive??? shouldn't you be modding your huffy???? ha ha jk

see it was just the opposite for me, i got my car near the end of my sophomore year in HS, was driving it by the middle of junior year, and am now driving my new GT at the end of my senior year. I dropped very little money into my old car, MAC dual exhaust, ebay CAI, rims, and other appearance items. With the right choices and a decent budget you can have a real slick looking six that sounds meaner than anything around... too bad my old car couldnt keep up with crap... it still looks stunning going down the road.
So my advice to you is have fun while it lasts... especially if your car is an early model v6... 94-95 kinda deal, the car was worth 3k and i still love the car, however worthless KBB says it is, people think its worth 10 X_X'

I'm an all-looks guy anyway, as you can tell :devil2:

Stay Away from nitrous unless you know ALOT about it. Since this is your first mustang I would stick with the bolt on parts. Learn how to get the most out of the power that you have before you start adding 100lbs of torque from nitrous. Dont get me wrong it is a great power adder if its done the right way. Its a TERRIBLE power adder if its done the wrong way.

yea right......I said that many times.

i would not instal the kit myself for sure i do know alot about nitrous though. but im still desiding what im going to do.

I cant read the rules for v6 tech.

-spike.

I have no idea what you just said. I think you nned to rephrase that so it doesn't sound like a 5 year old typed it.

And please read over the rules for the v6 section he asked a question about his car not if he should swap in a 8. That's a whole nother long drawn out argument that has all but been settled.

Do whatever the hell you want it's your car. Don't be a pussy don't ask for advice all the time like so many others if you like it do it.

Holy crap this thread is 6 months old and you decide today to come in be a dick? whats your deal? do like cuban said and read the rules of the forum. BTW that sk84life guy never posts anyway.

ill kill this before it even starts.
