... don't see the point... you ask this question like every 3 months... and it gets answered the same way... either which way best of luck?

[trueballerisme]

i know i keep asking, its because i dont understand it. and i need to make a decision

i dont know anything about a built 4.2 stroker and the price.

what would be cheap FI beside nitrous b/c i want maybe a small super or turbo to run witht he nitrous

[itschristorres8]

omg post number 102354 about the same thing from same guy

[itschristorres8]

here is the same thing ive been telling you for MONTHS
but first you dont have the $1500 so EVERYONE is wasting there time with you

you had this money like months ago and even before that you claimed $10k that you had to spend like 9months ago.

dual exhaust-get it done at a muffler shop. you should know the prices by now. you've been told as many times as i have post counts

intake- if you dont have it already GET it.

underdrive pulleys

long tubes

or Gears and t-lok

YOU KNOW ALL THIS! you've been told this all before.

you dont have enough for s/c or turbo with $1500
for the most power with that you'll get is Gears t-lok and nitrous

75-125shot will be good on your motor
get a tune!
yes 75-100 shot is safe with a tune so will 125 with a tune as long as your not always using it
nitrous kits go for about $400-600 and extras cost more of course
extras are bottle opener, bottle warmer, gauges and maybe switches

[trueballerisme]

I know most of it. im just not familar with all the different options combined and stuff. im really not trying to bother you im just trying to learn and get help. well ill lay it out for you right now with what im gonna get.

NO S/C or TURBO
dual exhaust
possibly a power pack... which i dont know about??? (any help please chris?)
Bolt ons
100-125 shot of nitrous
and wont i possibly need that 8.8 rear that we have brought up many times?
and i have an xcal2 tuner

[Onemanzu]

you have a s-197 right?

here is what you should do...
Vortech Engineering: Viewing product: 2005-2007 Ford Mustang V6 4.0L Supercharging Systems

have a shop install it...
call it good... well you would need a proper tuner, at which point you would want to find a local shop that can tune and install... and use w.e tuning program they use ... SCT or Sniper...

you don't need an 8.8 unless you are going over 300 horse power AND you take it to the track regularly

[trueballerisme]

Ok well with bolt ons and a 100 shot of nitrous I should be well over 300.

And also long tubes are illegal in CA... so I'm guessong I shouldn't get them.
And 1 shop I stopped by said they could do flow 40's dual for 400. How does that sound?

[Onemanzu]

yea i paid $476 with lifetime warranties and replacements and shit...

[trueballerisme]

And what about the long tubes... I just forget about them? And what tips with the flows?

[Onemanzu]

if its illegal its illegal... you either have to find a way around the system... which is even more illegal ... or forget about them...

and what tips? ... the round kind?

He will want an 8.8 with a 100-150shot of nitrous.
But I'll agree with everybody else stop asking the same question every two weeks, when you are ready to spend money lay it out on your bed and take a pic, then we will help even more.

[trueballerisme]

Wow I definately have that 1500. I spent 10k on visual mods because I decided after all the confusion with FI I would just do visuak mods till I decided what I want. And as soon as I get to my computer ill put up pics for u guys to see.

And so I guess I'm just going to go without longtubes... since they are illegal

[itschristorres8]

you spent 10k on visual huh
you have a pic of the car
10k in visual is pretty hard. rims, tires, grill, paint, body kit, spoiler, hood, lowering it, stripes, tints and chrome accents would barely break $10k and i doubt you have that all unless your good at getting ripped off

anyway
there is no power pak for your car
you can upgrade your cams or your heads but im assuming you cannot install them since the task isnt the easiest one anyway. and install will more then likely break your budget
cams is possible with install.

i personally think to see the most
intake
exhaust-custom shop
nitrous
for the most power

but i dont think your ready for nitrous

SCT Xcal2 or the livewire
intake
exhaust
underdrive pulleys

or

exhaust
intake
gears and t-lok


if long tubes are illegal dont get them,...why waste money to later on waste more money, unless your set on a s/c

or you could do some suspension work then gears and t-lok
and maybe intake if you have money

[trueballerisme]

20's and tired
Body kit and paint
Custom sound system
And dvd gps headunit
Just that easily took my 10g and I have plenty other small mods.

But your plan sounds good as for a custome exhaust what exactly does that mean. One shop will do 400 for the flows

+1 you're not gonna get big HP without big money...period!! However you seem more concerned with ricey crap like a Co2 purge.

[trueballerisme]

oh yeah of course i know that. Umm what intake should i get?

[ReverendDexter]

How about taking that $1500, and spending it on 5 HPDEs? Instead of complaining about the lack of power, learn to maximize the usage of the power you have. If what I'm hearing is true, you have a S197 car, which means you have the 4.0L motor. That puts you powerwise just slightly behind a stock 5.0 (if that 5.0 is still putting out to factory spec), and lightyears ahead in terms of brakes and suspension.

Shit, boy, looking at that no wonder you want more power! You want cheap power? Start by selling the 20s and going to 17s!

If you really spent 10k on those mods you got crazy ripped off. Here's a price breakdown of the MOST you should have paid for each.
rims and tires = $1500
Body kit = $700
paint = $1500
sound system = $1000 (this is really pimping it out)
headunit = (I admit I'm not sure on this one but it sure as hell isn't $5300 which is what it would need to be for you to have spent 10K)
