What to get next for my stang

Matt Stang · November 3rd, 2009, 06:50 PM

I have a 2002 Automatic v6 with 80,000 miles on it and the only current aftermarket work done is a new intake and new flowmaster exhuast. Looking to get all this done by the spring but i dont know which one first. Looking for proformance on 1/4 miles mostly. also looking to get nitrous later on for like 75-100 hp shots.

1. SCT Mustang Performance Chips at AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping!
2. Ford Racing 7.5" 28 Spline Traction - LOK Limited Slip Differential at AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping!
3. 4.10 Motive Gears at AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping!
4. 2+3 (try to limit your choice on this, cuase ill be broke from it haha)

Choice 4...if you plan on doing 2 and 3 at some point in time, do them together. even if you have to save a little longer. No point in doing them separate.

If you went with a tuner instead of a chip then I would probably go for that first, especially if youre on a budget. With the tuner youll be able to fix your speedo after you get gears later on down the road.

WhtStang00 · November 3rd, 2009, 07:51 PM

And,

1 and 4 are the only ones that should even be on the list....

Matt Stang · November 3rd, 2009, 09:24 PM

how much should it cost me to stick in the differental and gears at a shop, im figureing around 300

Seabee · November 3rd, 2009, 10:29 PM

Gears alone can be from like 250 to 450

If you cant afford the gears and TLOK at the same time, I wouldnt do it. The TLOK and Gears are < $400 at American Muscle anyway and they might even have a sale coming up. And get their catalog...youll get a $15 off coupon.

Id go for option 4.

...where's option 5 for new pulleys?

Matt Stang · November 4th, 2009, 08:08 PM

i was thinking of pullys but they do not look as dramatic of an increese for 1/4 mile as the options i found above, yet idk as much about them as im sure you do

True but you cant get through life a 1/4 mile at a time, no matter what bumper stickers say. Sometimes to just let it go on the open road....ahhhh
