ok thanx guys. From what ur saying, idk what my friend's dad was really talking about.

 

Well actually there are bad things too, with some it just makes the intake shorter and it sucks in warm air from the engine, Some go places where they will suck in water easily(Hot-Pipes), Some cheap ones the chrome will peel easy and get sucked into engine. Some, K&N? might throw a code

CAI are almost usless i think, instead of making it the 1st mod, i would do that twards the end. A new intake is like what $189 and you gain.... 2hp? Yes when you get alot more power you will need a larger intake, thats when it is usefull. Save the money for somthin else IMO

 

well, ive bought new rims, grille, headlights, chin spoiler, anddual exhaust. What should i do next? It's a 1996 and i was thinking of sequential taillights

 

Seems like your going for looks more? I love the tailights. For perf. i would just do a Splitport swap instead of intake thats 40hp vs 2hp for a little bit more

 

i don't know a whole lot about engines so what would be involved to do that, parts and prices

 

99-04 Heads, Upper and Lower Intakes, might as well get a better cam and port the heads/intakes best you can before installed. Maybe 50hp?

 

yep. if u do it piece by piece, minor bolt on by bolt on, youll be broke, and pushing maybe 15-20 hp over stock with a pulley, an intake, and a full exhaust. tapping into the motor is the best route for serious power. think about working from the inside out. trust me, coming from a guy who did it the other way, you wanna do it right the first time. im still saving cash for my build..iuts a slow process, but i just keep dreaming of my finished product.

 

HAHAHA YOU ARE FUNNY!!!, Or a 16yo.... Key word there is finished... You own a Mustang!! You will never be finished. You can win every car show and you will never be done with your car.

 

so what would be a good price estimate?

 

what are you talking about never being down with your mustang? in the summer im puttin on a Roush Stage 2 body kit, 18" Cobra R's.. chrome or black chrome i dont know which would pop more, GT hood, duals and double limo tint on back and small side windows and 35% tint on the driver and passenger windows and ill be done with my car.
