Im tryin to find the right mods to put on my mustang ive already decieded to get true duals and a cold air intake and was thinkin bout a new throttle body and throttle body spacer i got about 2000 to spend and im not sure what kind of parts to get exactly so i was wonderin what u guys think

[2000Mustang]

I hear the throttle body and spacer wont do anything til youve alreadt got alot more done. thats just what ive heard, i dont really know

[itschristorres8]

throttle body spacer...pointless
with $2,000
FULL exhaust, if you want the most power, long tubes, short o/r H mid pipe and cat back of your choice(i prefer mac or flowmaster 40s)-15-20hp
gears and t-lok-$400-install-$200- no gains, but much better traction and MUCH quicker accelerating
CAI on ebay$25-5hp TOPS unless youve got a s/c or turbo or other mods
Ud pulleys-$150

thats a good $2000 buy

AB should really make a stocky for basic mods.. btw, where has he been?

I agree. Chris pretty much covered it, and like the others said TB spacer is pointless.

[Luvdmustang]

the reason i wanna know where he is, is because im lookin for a blue on blue race...

i know he has the usual mods. but i feel i can take him. i just wish he'd get on so i can find out if he wants too. i dont think he lives that far away

[Tony_90fox]

I dont know if these verts are like the fox verts, but if they are, stiffen up the car if you get heavy into racing.

[itschristorres8]

he wont street race as far as i know
n from wat he says his car shift nicely, better then stock auto 99 v6's..
you'd have to be really on your game and he'd have to be out of it

i wish atlanta motor speedway was still open. anywho, thats cool how he wont street race. its hard for me to say no. but maybe we can find another alternative to racing on the street

[gtg8920]

it seems like this site has everything im lookin for. what do u think about this dual exhaust catback system with the x pipe http://rpmoutlet.com/musv6ypcb.htm#1 and i dont see long tubes but they have shorty headers http://rpmoutlet.com/musv6bbkh.htm do u think this would be a good combo buy

[itschristorres8]

no...
shorties..not worth it
heres better stuff:
long tubes:
http://rpm-mustangs.com/cart/product...cat=333&page=1

this mid pipe-
http://rpm-mustangs.com/cart/product...cat=337&page=1

this exhaust
http://rpm-mustangs.com/cart/product...cat=334&page=1

you'll see the most power out of this, double the power of the pypes with those shorties

[gtg8920]

thanks, is this your set up?

[itschristorres8]

nope
i have a custom exhaust...so i fucked myself but doesnt matter...with turbo long tubes are pointless as well as the mid pipe

[gtg8920]

i was thinkin about gettin a turbo (not sure that i will) but if i do and i have this set up would i have to change my exhaust? and i tried to get straight pipes put on but the guy at meineke said it was illegal without cats, hard to do and a fab job would be about $1000 and said i should just get a h or x pipe and catback. and im thinkin about gettin the bbk cai for 170 sumthin

that guy is bull shitting you. my fabbed exhaust costed $350

but for turbo you can just get a turbo kit now and a muffler shop to fab up an exhaust and all you'd need is a sct xcal2

http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums...s-vt10274.html
sells them for the cheapest. very trustable guy from all over MM.
the SCT XCAL2 is like a chip/tuner but better. wellllll worth the money.

i'd order one of those first, its a great mod and MOST ppl on this site will tell you its the best tuner/flasher to get

if you get it from him it'll be about $350...cheapest anywhere on the net, even ebay...just ask him about it and he'll work with you
if you do tell him christorres told you bout it plz

[GreenFaleen]

don't pay 170 for a CAI pay 25 on ebay and buy something else with the left over.

[gtg8920]

ive never bought n e thing on ebay and dont really know if i can trust that itll work cuz i dont wanna end up with somethin crappy, but im gunna look for one on there 2 see

[itschristorres8]

also deffinitly check out the link i sent you on the xcal2. its good either before or after CAI and exhaust
