well tuning is just what it says. It is tuning some of the parameters in your car's computer to allow for maximum performance and/or safety. But when you talk about adjusting computer stuff on here...just call it getting tuned...not remap the ecu. thats tuner talk that you hear on the honda forums.

Are you posting from your phone? Please use at least something close to proper syntax & grammar. It doesn't need to be perfect, just not ridiculously lazy.




Use don't need much power for drifting, just experience, tires & replacement parts. Concentrate on skill before you up your power. Slow is fast.

Learn to drift with low power for now and then up the power whenever your skillz will allow. Not many people drift mustangs. No real reason other than parts are expensive for them compared to a 240sx or other rwd imports. But good luck with that. Just dont be street drifting or doing it in parking lots. Be smart about it.

Better think about the consequences doing major mods

+1,000! dont think this will be a one evening install/tune and be up and running the next day. There will be down time, and there will be unplanned expenses. nothing ever goes according to planned... trust me.

In discussions of supercharger vs. turbocharger lately, everyone seem to want to include LT headers on the cost of the supercharger. While changing the exhaust is required for a turbo its not required for a supercharger.

Take a completely stock motor. Bolt on a basic centrifical supercharger kit (hardest part is replacing the fuel pump). And, you can get 350 rwhp. There is nothing simplier than that.

Even though I'm a ProCharger fan, I've heard nothing but good reports on this kit:
