The next step

Blade8688 · April 4th, 2007, 12:06 PM

Ok ive put a K&N cold air intake on my car, Ive also made it true dual exhaust. What should be the next thing I do for my car that gives it a little more juice. My guess is you guys are probably going to say get a chip or a programmer. But im just wanted some ideas. Thanks

p.s. I know a supercharger or turbo would be nice but I work at Wal-Mart and im 18 so my budget is a little limited.

well gears would be a nice start... or like you stated..."juice"

Blade8688 · April 4th, 2007, 12:12 PM

Do you mean like changing the gear ratio or getting all new gears....... if thats so what kind of gears and around how much would that cost to get the parts and installed. thanks

Changing the gear ratio in the rear end to 4.10 or 3.73 and adding t-lok will run about 600 and help acceleration a lot

SCT tuner - 400 bucks- 12-18 hp

UD pulleys- 160 bucks- 8-10 hp

theres some ideas

when you change the ratio you have to get gears man.

install is like 2-6 hundred depending on where you go.

the parts new are like 175-200
the install kit is like 100

i recommend FRPP gears.. the motives are good too but they tend to whine

ok im new to cars but whats a t-lok

GreenFaleen · April 4th, 2007, 12:28 PM

It will give power to both wheels

Mustangs are built with only the right tire that spins (I'm not sure why, pretty new to cars myself as well...), t-lok will make both tires spin instead of just the right one.
