First Time Stang Owner

V6Stang07 · March 26th, 2009, 01:20 PM

Hello everyone.

This is my first time owning a Mustang. And I was wondering what are some good mods to start off with on the V6 to pick up a lilttle power without going nuts on money. Any help would be greatful. Also I was looking for a chip for the V6 and could not find one. Is there even a chip for it and if there is where can i get it.

Thank You,
V6Stang07

cold air intake and exhaust is one of the first things. it lets the car breathe better and get a tuner not a chip

^what he said. for cai, i'd say get one from americanmuscle.com. I got my first cai from there for 60 bucks. exhaust, a custom job will do, you can get it done for less than 400. and of course, a tuner, not a chip.

after you read the stickies and still have questions ask away. that sticky i linked you to has a lot of great info and should get you started on the right path. like i said just now, if you still have questions ask away.

also if you have exhaust questions, check the sticky in the 4.9L 2005+ Forum link i gave you. i has various exhaust set-ups for your year stang

+81. Stickies are great for basic knowledge and preferences. And all these guys are great sources of info and help so ask away. And as said, CAI, exhaust and a tuner are normal starting points. Welcome and good luck in the modding journey.

lol, the v6 is bigger than the v8!

N29468 · March 26th, 2009, 06:09 PM

I guess less is more in this situation.

white03v6 · March 26th, 2009, 06:19 PM

yep, less is a lot more lol

N29468 · March 26th, 2009, 06:33 PM

and this would be the only time i could confidently say "I have a v6."

white03v6 · March 26th, 2009, 08:10 PM

well, it would depend...if this imaginary 4.9L v6 still made as much hp as the 4.0L...i would be really embarrassed lol. my engine would be .3L bigger than the v8, but i wouldnt be making nearly as much power...but if this "4.9L" v6 put out more power than the v8, i would be like

I

N29468 · March 26th, 2009, 09:20 PM

Everyone knows all 4.0L v6's run low 11's so i mean the 4.9L runs mid 9's its simple math but it has to be auto so the powers 24/7 fucker. As long as you can keep the chassis from twisting on the launch you’ll be fine.

damn typos lol
