Default Increase horsepower

the best thing to do is go with the free mods like bumping the timing from 10 degrees to around 12 or 14 but the higher you go the better grade fuel you'll need but timing, cold air, good flowing exhaust, underdrive pulleys, and gears are all some pretty cheap mods that will deliver a huge increase in power and won't effect drivability

Nitrous doesn't affect driveability, and delievers a bigger punch at less cost.

What did the Dyno show before and after the pullies? Is this why you were diisappointed?

I always like to make a Dyno check before and after any change to see if what they advertise is true...

but the way i look at it is. yeah nitrou is way nice. but the N/A mods are there were ever you go. i wouldn't like to shoot every time i wanna spin them or up steep hills or pulling a trailor(in a truck). thats why i want the turbo. and it is ajustable boost.

just two more cents into the hat from me

Yeah it's not like you could put NOS and thats it to a car. You aren't using the nitrous at every traffic light. What happens when you just want to cruise?? Or just have a quick street race versus a piece of sh*t Honda that you know you could beat without NOS. You have to do the other mods...at least thats my opinion...



Bu the way, anybody know of where to buy for suspension mods? I hear H&R for springs, and Bilstein for shocks, anyone know for struts, caster platers, subframe?

By how much should i lower the mustang?...1.5 or 2?

Nitrous is nice but when the bottle runs out so does the fun.I like to have the power on tap every time I step on the loud pedal.

miguel, when you want to cruise? Why would you need the extra power to just cruise? A quick race tahat you could beat without nitrous? So why use it? Or use it anyway. You can spray in theory until the bottle runs out, but most spray for about 16 seconds at a time. Please tell me you don't need that much time to win against a hampster.



AND IT'S NOT NOS. THAT IS A COMPANY.









So the bottle runs out and you re fill it, it's fast, cheap, and insanely fun. The Chevelle used to run @ 900 horses with nitrous. Now it's at 1962. That was before I twisted the 9" like a pretzel and it got sold.

LOL

Don't advance timing and add NAAAWWWWWSSSSSS <img border="0" src= smileys/smiley4.gif>

I also say go nitrous, there when you need (as long as you keep your bottle full) dosn't effect daily driveability. Just rember do your home work, don't get greedy and spray yourself into a blown engine. run colder plugs. Retard timing 2-3 degrees, have fun.
