performance parts for $200 or less

kyle2002stang! · November 24th, 2011, 03:36 PM

well christmas is comin up and i was wondering what you guys think are the best performance mods available for less than $200

02gt2v · November 24th, 2011, 03:47 PM

What type of mod are u interested in?? Engine brake suspension etc.......

ReverendDexter · November 24th, 2011, 03:54 PM

Porterfield/Hawk/EBC brake front pads + SS braided lines + Brake fluid flush & bleed.

If you're into handling, CC Plates + performance alignment

kyle2002stang! · November 24th, 2011, 04:01 PM

engine and suspension

sharkbait · November 24th, 2011, 05:20 PM

Gas money.

Unless you do auto X i wouldnt waste money on suspension

stal94gt · November 24th, 2011, 05:31 PM

i hope i dont hurt your feeling by saying this but spending a few hundred dollars on small parts ends up nickel and diming you broke. building cars is a very expensive hobby so when it comes to budget people i would recomend intake and exhaust or cosmetic like tinted windows. modular 2v motors dont respond well with bolt on mods and most people get their feelings hurt when they add up the cost to bolt a bunch of small things on vs the gain they could have had with nitrous and blower.

The cheapest mod you could every buy... driver mod

MikeJones · November 24th, 2011, 07:54 PM

Ask for some detailing stuff for christmas.

Quality detailing stuff though..

I usually get tools from my family.

A stock suspension works just fine bro.

Throttle body or short throw shifter I recommend the mgw orange handle or the steeda tri ax yes i know it doesn't at hp but it does make a huge difference from stock for low amount of money and easy install. The throttle body gives more response and a few hp if u match it with a plenum u can net 10 hp for not too much $

LopnVrt · November 24th, 2011, 08:21 PM

underdrive pullies and a set of good spark plugs, or an x pipe, fork out 200 more bucks and buy you a pypes catback. Honestly, If i had that much money to spend on something, id hit up Rabid Stang on here and he can get you a handheld interface, computer software, obdII cables, usb cables, and he will send you tunes for life for 280 bucks. Thats a bangin deal and soon as i get me an extra 300 bucks ima order one from him. All you do is buy the stuff from him and he will send it to ya then email him with a list of ur mods and wat u wanna do as far as MPG or HP and he will write you a custom tune and email it back and you upload it on the interface from ur computer then upload it onto your car like you would with a programmer and if you ever added more mods later on then just email him the new mods and he will write you another tune and email it to ya for free. Cant beat that.

Thats why people go 10 and better with stock suspension all the time.

I promise your car would be faster with suspension

sharkbait · November 24th, 2011, 10:54 PM

You only go faster if you have an issue. Whats there to gain if the car hooks, launches straight and goes straight.
