Ok just got an 03 Mustang V6... Let me say it's slowwwww.... can't even do a burnout.. But obviously it has potential, just like every car... especially a 3.8 v6. Anyways, what are some easy mods to start giving the car some horsepower? Supercharger? Rockers? My buddy said I should put a 4.11 gear in the back or something? Any help i'd appreciate, thanks!
4.10 or 4.30 for our cars. www.rpm-mustangs.com www.supersixmotorsports.com Superchargers are really expensive though. Try true-dual exhaust and gears for alittle perkiness.
cant do a burnout? i have 6 officers of the Crestwood Police Dept that will attest to the fact that a 3.8 can do a burnout
2000 V6 auto with a bit more torque and very little hp over stock, it'll burnout. I could floor it at a red light and wait a second with the tire spinning. Launch the car at 1000 rpms and tell me the right tire isn't spinning. Exhaust is under $500, gears can get up around $800 with install, chip, and a limited slip differential carrier. With the LS you get better traction so better takeoffs.
gosh and no one said this yet???? Turkley sammiches give like a bazzziiillllion HP!!!! How much is not much money??? 200?? 500??? those would be good things to know as for sites EBAY my boy EBAY bought a listed 1000 dollars in parts alone for my 2...one is a super 6 and it only cost me about 400 N' change but if you got the flow go with rpm-mustangs.com that guy knows his stuff the 6's cam and valve springs are on their way from him shortly.
RPMOutlet.com is very good, they got a 2000 V6, that they're working on themselves... I think some good things to start with would be, 4.10 gear, CAI (Cold Air Intake), Under Drive Pulley's, and X-Pipe Exhaust with true duals(sound better and give you maybe 20+hp). Just my 2 cents...
Gears would be the best bang for your buck. But to keep up with a GT you'll have to spray a 100 shot at the very least. If you want to faster, don't waste your money on modding your 3.8L . Go with a 4.6L, 5.0L, or maybe a 5.7L if you like the Camaro's.... I had a 98 3.8L and I sold it for my GT. WELL worth it
3.73 gears from FRPP (Ford Racing Performance Parts) T-lok from FRPP (spins both tires) Cat-back exhaust mid pipe (h or x) re-tuned ECU (tuner or chip) lowering springs shocks/struts K&N drop-in filter (stay away from full CAI kits unless you go with the FIPK from K&N) Throttle body (www.rpm-mustangs.com they port/polish, etc.)
