I saw the thread wondering how people can not mod there cars.

Now I would like to ask, if you are not going to the track, why do anything to the
engine? The V8 has plenty of power for the street.

I see an awful lot of threads with problems with mods to the engine.

Just wonder why you guys like to cause yourself problems.

Doesn't even deserve a response since you obviously did not read the post all the way through. It was about any mods.... including exterior ones that anyone can do.... and please elaborate on the many mods we do just to give ourselves more problems oh wise one.........

52 here and I mod. Cams,CAI,and different bumpers haven't broke down yet.And because I drive on the street(mountain streets) I had the cams installed for more torque and power.

Whats a gearhead to do? If not for the rules set forth by some one who doesn't understand there are no rules for modding.

You obviously have not driven/ridden in a Mustang GT with CAI and tune from Brenspeed. This mod is a must-have mod IMO because it wakes the car up and eliminates the factory throttle lag - totally different car!

And I have had no problems with my mods listed below...
