Hello fellow car enthusiasts.
I am hoping to get some advice on modding my 2011 GT (6spd manual, 3.73 axle, brembo brake pkg). I purchased my Mustang new in October 2010; she mostly sits in the garage and right now only has about 9k miles on it (this is NOT my daily driver). I don't seem to have any problems with the transmission or the engine tick that many people complain about. Right now, the car is completely stock - no mods what-so-ever, but I hope to change that soon with the following upgrades:
My questions:
Mike
I am hoping to get some advice on modding my 2011 GT (6spd manual, 3.73 axle, brembo brake pkg). I purchased my Mustang new in October 2010; she mostly sits in the garage and right now only has about 9k miles on it (this is NOT my daily driver). I don't seem to have any problems with the transmission or the engine tick that many people complain about. Right now, the car is completely stock - no mods what-so-ever, but I hope to change that soon with the following upgrades:
- Corsa Axle-back sport exhaust system (PN 14316)
- BBK after-cat x-pipe
- BBK 90mm throttle body
- Air Raid cold air intake & "custom" tune
My questions:
- Will these mods make much difference in power, acceleration? Will my fuel economy take a hit with normal driving?
- Are any of the above mods a "waste" of money - meaning that for the cost, I won't get much benefit?
- Will these mods damage my car? (I don't really abuse my car - it cost me a lot of money and a treat it as such. That being said, I do like to have fun when I'm driving it and I don't hesitate to hit the rev limiter and once in a blue moon I will engage in a friendly street race.)
