2002 V6


I just bought my first Mustang, its a 2002 V6. Nothing special, but thats why I joined this site.. in hopes to get some good ideas on where to start and what to do in order to turn this baby around.

Anyone that tells me to put a Cherry Bomb on... do not even bother giving me your advice please.

.... so the to all the " know it alls " .... where do I start

cold air intake, i like that idea. simple step that will improve the car.

already have the after market dual exhuast on, sounds great.

... what about a super charge? and should i go with a lowering kit, or body kit?

T lok so both ur tires spin and not just your right rear.....pulley change for power...cai is cold air intake....tuner is a way to get power out of your car with a handheld programmer like a gameboy that enhances ur car instead....

oh wow... thats all new stuff to me. the T Lok sounds like a "MUST"

where is a good place to shop for those items..

and the hand held programmer... would most likely get me killed since i would have no idea how to use it

does the 7.5 tlock improve anything other than spinning both wheels? such as better launch, grip etc..

will it also bring out more power with 3.73 or 4.10? what exactly will it do other than spinning both wheels??

I thought Tloks were not a good pick for a DD? You know, with turning corners and all.I am curious about the Tlok thing because I dont know anyone whos had them.

I think Im convinced that exhaust, CAI and tune are the safest first 3 mods to start for the average V-6. They make the most difference, cost the least and provide the best platform for future modding.

what route are you planning to go... its different for everyone ...

If it were me and i was telling you how to build the car i want... i would say Full Exhaust, 8.8 rear end, Fully Rebuilt heads, New cam, Forged internals, Rebuilt M90 and fuel upgrades.

so again whats your budget and plans?
