There is: What you COULD do, what you DID do, and what you HAVE.

We can always say that we can do things better. But when an opportunity presents itself, you should acknowledge it.

Let's not look at the past.

yawn

good one kid, why dont you gtfo out of this section and quit bashing on all the older v6 mustangs, its pretty evident you think you're tight because you have a 2011, you're not.

"
The problem is that the older v6 mustangs are really slow cars. Ford really took a dump on them for the longest time, getting away by making slow rent-a-cars for females.

Throwing a turbo in them gives them the power that they should have had from the factory to begin with.... While there are other cars out there that you could spend that money on which are nicer, cleaner, and quicker than any of the older V6 mustangs."

The reason I don't have an older V6 is because they were slow. The reason I have a 2011 is because they are no longer that slow.

Why don't you mature up and realize the facts?

Ah well, there's a reason why I have a better car.

They aren't slow, they're not fast, and you could say they're slow compared to some other mustangs, but they aren't "slow".

mature up? youre the immature one who continually bashes on our cars.

Lol congrats? imo your purchase was terrible, you could have a much faster car for the price you paid, and since you care so much for speed, well simply, you're an idiot. because according to your logic you should have bought a 5.0 2011.

"Ah well", i understand why you're bashing on other peoples cars, you're pissed about your purchase. Too bad you couldnt have gotten your hands on a mach 1, cobra or gt.

his car has to be faster so he can rush to make that payment. LOL. my 6er was $1000 bucks and probably won't have more than $3500 into it altogether when I'm finished. So you can't fault OP for wanting to make the most out of what he has. He may have gotten the car for cheap. Because truth be told, it's going to take you 2x (if not more) the money to get your 2011 the way you want it (or you may have to add it to that finance you have on your car note). I would much rather have an older car and make the most out of it, than buy brand new, carry full coverage insurance, and try to scrape up money to attempt to mod it to how I want it. But I dont know what your bank account looks like so you might not have this issue. In which case your answers dont apply since OP asked for advice on a "budget"

There is no excuse for bashing on someone elses decision. i mean COME ON GUYS we are all a mustang family... but really a 2011 v6? for 20k id rather put some stupid fast motor in a sleeper mustang since you know all hes worried about is power....

Alright guys, settle it down or take it to the BB. Solidhadriel, there's no reason to sit around talking shit about our cars (most of us are well aware of our cars shortcomings). I don't believe this is the first thread I've seen this crap come up in, but it had better be the last. There have been guys that have built these V6s into monsters that would put your car to shame. You can go on about how Ford fucked up these cars but not all of us have the money to buy a brand spanking new vehicle. And we're all brothers here, no matter how slow certain models are. If you're not actually going to be helpful, go back to the 2011+ V6 section before you go getting yourself in real trouble.

If you dont have anything to add to the thread other then that please dont post in it...

The problem with EVERY car is it is slow as their is always a faster car...The person didnt ask for your opinion on his car...He asked what he could do to make it faster...

Back on topic...

First off is the car paid off?
