Wow man!! There is a ton of stuff you can do with 6 grand!!

Twin Turbo- I guess this kit is made for a v6 but I read you could hook it up to a 6banger.Twin Turbo
Here is another good sight:
Supersixmotorsports

If you don't want to get turbos then get a supercharger.

Some other engine mods you could do is a
Cam swap.
Intake
Headers
Exhaust
Chip
Pulleys
75 shot of nitrous(for fun)
Bigger Throttle Body
Oh and new gears 3.73 or 4.10s
And a differental(T-LOK) so your not doing 1 wheel burnouts

If you play your cards right you should be able to do all of that under 6 grand. Good Luck and keep us posted Your 3.8 is gonna rock!

I would get the procharger kit, full long tube exhaust, and a cam if you have the knowledge of how to do it. I would also get a ford t-lok, all this power won't do you anygood if you can't get traction. Also a good set of performance tires if you don't have them.

Also get that thing dyno tuned. You could blow the engine if you don't, I would only run 8 psi till your going to get it tuned.

i would run 0psi until i got it tuned. i'm getting my blower professionally installed + tune. i was going to have someone else install it and just take it to the shop for a tune, but i don't want to run it even .1 miles without a tune.

get a vortech kit. they are better according to every mustang shop in the atlanta area. then get a full exhaust and 3.73 gears and auburn posi. then beat up on GTs.

i would get the twin turbo set up for the car...i love superchargers don't get me wrong...but i think a twin turbo set up would be a lot cooler and i love the sound of the turbo...plus how many mustangs has a twin turbo set up

matthockey32 · 05-25-2005, 07:56 PM

a twin turbo on a v6 would be insane. you would have no control at WOT.

cobra232 · 05-25-2005, 11:13 PM

turbo kit all the way.

i would advise forged pistons and rods too and maybe a cam. ported heads and intakes will also add some power

you will have to have it dyno tuned and have a chip burned for your setup.

try justin starkey at www.velocitymustangperformance.com for the turbo kit and chip

or

try http://www.members.aol.com/andylittleton/tma.htm for a good turbo kit. i'd still go with justin for the chip. he is the best

the procharger is a very nice setup and much better than the vortech IMO. justin can burn a chip for these too

good luck! spend your money wisely and ask for advise

try www.v6power.net or www.3.8mustang.com there are alot of guy's there that can help you

I heard you have to buy other parts to make the vortechs work....I heard they are a pain in the arsh.

DaGGer · 05-26-2005, 08:40 AM

if your going to i would try to get the turbo set up and get a stroker kit for it...i don't know how much they are but it would be very nice
