but he's right. ive seen TT kits for like 6 thousand and they put you at about 350 to the wheels. not worth it.

Thanks Jugador..I was just curious</P>


But is it a better way to go compared to a supercharger</P>

better but not more cost effective. it's rumored switching the whole manifuld and supercharger from a supercoupe thunderbird works and its pretty cheap id imagine.

03, i wouldnt want to either on a brand new car like that, but i might start off with some free mods like porting your upper intake and removing the air silencer.</P>


hawks...how insightful and informative.</P>

ok fine first get a good exhaust setup then supercharge it with pullies and port anything and everything you can get a good throttle body and soo on

mmm no. any kit for a sixer is outrageously expensive.

Whenever you remove the air silencer does that just increase the size of the intake port?

Jugador1
11-26-2003, 04:20 PM
is there such a thing as an intake port and if so wouldnt it be in the heads? </P>


the air silencer kinda restricts the air going into the intake/filter so taking it off makes the car breathe a little easier.</P>

How would that effect 03's warrenty. Just wondering how much he could do before the warrenty would be effected.

supercharger/turbos=void. any internal engine modifications=void. minor bolt ons usually wont.

I wasn't thinking about putting TT on my car at the moment because of the warranty. Just wondering for future reference but thanks for all the help

So an exhaust would not void the warrenty? I'm tryin to understand the warrenty thing so i can help my friend who has a new car.</P>

look in all honesty all mods would void the warrenty so just keep everything you pull off so if something goes wrong u can put it back on and then bring it back in but for the most part it does void it so removing the air silencer is about all you can do

exhaust wont, nor will most bolt ons unless your dealer is a tightwad f**kface. technically it can void it, but most of em want the money so they do work without being pr**ks about the technicalities.

You can actuall do bolt on's. It will not void your warranty, it is a FEDERAL LAW.

The aftermarket part installed only voids the warranty on the part it replaces, and if you experiance say, motor failure and the dealer tries to point to an intake, exhaust, and a set of headers, they have to PROVE that it was those parts's fault for the failure to void the warranty.

Happy moddage.

Hey Jonny Lightning...if your not gonna answer my questions why don't you just keep your mouth shut </P>


I can't answer your question if you don't ask something valid. That's like me asking "how much can I get a Mustang for?" YOU HAVE TO BE MORE SPECIFIC. I own FIVE TURBO CARS. 3 of them are mustangs. I don't need some kid like you wasting my time telling me I'm not contributing anything to a thread when I'm not going to waste my time writing out information that you don't need. </P>


Let me spell it out for you. </P>


Saying you want a twin turbo set up is TOO VAGUE to comment on. AllI can say is "Great, I hope you have fun trying to figure it all out." You need to tell me everything from HP expectations to if you want to leave your motor stock to what size turbos you want. </P>


Idiot kids. </P>


</P>


haha....busted. but anyway, is there any point to putting the TT kit or s/c on a sixer? i mean...if you want performance...wouldn't you go with the V8? b/c, after you turbo your six cylinder (or s/c) you're only running alittle faster than minorly modded V8's...what's the point? spend the cash on a GT...then do the turbo kit (the kit should be cheaper for that anyway)</P>

insurance, sleeper effect, surprise element...harder to hustle people with that V8 sound...in a sixer nobody will see you coming. (those are reasons i would have)

First of all you have a littlr V6. Why even bother trying to put more power in your care its pointless. Should have gotten a V8 like me and most sane mustang owners. Are you really going to rip through the streets in a V6. Plus isn't it embarrising when someone asks "Is that a V8 or a V6?"and you know people ask that questin. The reason they make V6's and V8's is because the body is to heavy to run fast with a V6. Honda's can produce speed with a V6 because they are light weight cars. I laugh at V6's. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, but you guys are still cool cuz' you own a STANG'.YOUR PAL,DILO with theV8</P>

I know very little about turbos.</P>


But I was wonderingthe advantageof having atwin setupover a large single turbo? </P>

Jugador1

boost at low and high end (variable boost? or is there no such term). one turbo is generally small for low end and to cover untilthe fat one kicks in a little later. <edited><editID>Jugador</editID><editDate>37963.7247106481</editDate></edited>

Ah, I was thinking they were equal sized turbos
