    Go faster? Blower, intercooler, catback, larger fuel injectors, performance pulley ... tons of stuff. A Mustang nut could guide you better.

    Lower it with quality stuff. Then an intake/exhaust to prepare for forced induction cause face the fact that's the only way you'll make decent power and torque.

    You mentioned a spoiler.....link of a pic of purchased product?

    Don't force induce a V6 stang.. It's a waste of money, time, effort, and well parts LOL.. If done right it can be great but IMO just intake and exhaust. Ask AnthonyF what he would do if he could start over with his V6 stang

    I'm confused. Do you want an automatic V6 stang, or do you want fast?

    i had to go with auto because i live in michigan, and it snows a lot in here.. so it would be hard to drive manual in snow, specially for unexperienced driver like me (i'm 19 years old..).

    He said in the snow.


    But anyways, if you're wanting fast, you chose the wrong car. I wouldnt spend over 1-2Gs in parts and labor together with the car so it doesnt turn into a money pit that runs 14s on a good day.

    There are LOTS of parts out there to make your car look good, but you would be wasting time and money trying to make it fast. Honestly, I wouldnt put an exhaust on it because it would sound like crap IMO.

    YO V6 LOVE IN THIS MUTHA ****A!!!!!!

    Do not mod your car unless you just want to do MINOR bolt ons. It is possible to get your car into the 13's WITHOUT nitrous or a turbo.

    If you want to boost your car, only do about 8psi or less. You can go more but risk some injury. I am at 15-18psi and a fully built engine bc the others blew the fuk up. PM me if you have any questions.

    so bottom line is not waste my time, and to AnthonyF to be honost idk what is 8psi but i'll go to like an autozone and ask about lol, but your car sounded really really good...

    and one more thing, i had a 98 grand prix gt before i got my mustang, and when i used to push it, it used to pull really good, now with my mustang, i floor it and it doesnt burnout or make any sound, it goes slow at first and then after a little bit it starts goin fast, so i was wonderin if my mustang is messed up or v6 mustangs are like that ?...

    thanks in advance

    When did u hear my car? 8psi is 8 pounds per square inch (BOOST/turbo/supercharger) If you dont know what PSI is, dont mod your car yet.

    is yours an auto or stick? Your GP was FWD, so when u mashed it, all the weight tipped back and your front wheels wouldnt have any weight on them so it was easy to burn out. Your mustang is RWD so all the weight in transferred to the rear so it is harder to burn out. If your car is a 5spd, just dump the clutch, you'll break one wheel loose. You dont have posi.

    I cant listen to it yet, but I was going from what I have heard. All the v6 stangs I have heard sound like poo at any RPM but idle EXCEPT for yours. I thought the reason your's sounded the way it did was because of the s/c and all your other crazy crap.

    Wow, what an immature response. The guy obviously doesnt know to much. No need to bash Mr. Overconfident.

    And big deal, it's called IMPORT atlanta The OWNER has a fuking Chevy jackass. And There are a few supermods with Domestics. People like you piss me off.

    only fail i see is that vert z you have there.


    i suggest you read up A LOT on the subject.
    performance mods can be anything from suspension, block/head work, supercharger/turbocharger, 5spd swap(technically since you're autotragic), etc etc and so on.

    it's fine that you're new, and pay the immature retards no mind. everyone starts somewhere. like i said, read up on what you might want, visit a couple of mustang forums. Google is also your friend.

    with that said, good luck.

    Yep. It started at post #33 as far as I can tell. I take it your literacy skills failed you and it must have started the moment you found this site. At that point you would've noticed in plain view that there's a section for Domestics as well as imports. But being that ignorance plays a huge roll in your sad and (need I say useless) life, go find a wall and make yourself aquainted with it. It might be fun

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.
