Default What do we do to make our mustangs faster??

WITHOUT getting a charger. Or how do you boys put it? Forced Induction?

WIth duals
tuner
CAI


and what else? I keep hearing about our mustangs being fast but then I just read a post about a camry almost beating one of us. ANd it was with that forced Induction!!!

I was on the free way the other day doing 75. A Nissan Maxima pulls up behind me and rides me. So I pedal to the medal. What happens? He does the same and FLIES around me [&o] and he winked at me!!!!!!!!!! He winked! AAAGH!

At first I bought the car for the looks. Now I want to go fast!!!!! What do I do?? Those pulley things????

What we need is a sticky showing basic mods. Those Maximas are pretty good(only the 3.5L), so don't be too discouraged. Yeah if you want more power go for headers(I stand by these), CAI, tuner, pulleys, exhaust pipes, hell the list can go on.

Well that's depressing. And how could you hold up against one now? let me ask you this. If I put duals on, and one of those tuner/cai jobs..would the same thing have happened to me???

Highways are no good for us.. I learned that really quick when a punk benz wouldn't stop riding my ***. We went for about 1/2 a mile before I just pulled over and let his crazy *** pass. It was an early 90's benz too.
