You don't need enormous horse-power to have extremely quick car. Sneaky and others on this website have proved that.I have a 04 Gt 5-spd, it has an x pipe, bassani exhaust, knn cold air, and 373's. Im not too familar with the 4.6 2v. Im looking to make around 450hp and enjoy the car. Im looking for any advice knowledge or help with what parts i should do next and in what order to achieve this level. Also some have told me to replace the knn cai and get a different one?
Thanks
I like the Accufab, it is a much nicer piece of the factory and flows very nice. The SCT Livewire is fine as long as your local dyno guy tunes with SCT. I have not seen the high gains with underdrives on the mod motor set-ups, headers and exhaust would be a better place to start.
My first question is : BUDGET, How much are you willing to spend to obtain that goal? Blowers, Turbos and supporting mods add up very quick.
If I can help let me know
Im guessing you still want in the 400s as your goal. If that is the case, get either a 75mm or 78mm TB and Plenum. If you were staying N/A, then 70mm is plenty, if you are going with a PA, then bigger is better. With that said, Accufab is probably the best...but if you want a one piece kit.....go with the BBK 78mm all-in-one TB and Plenum. YOU CAN INSTALL IT YOURSELF. Really, it is a 15 minute job, and 5 of that was looking for my bottle opener.
Remove the UDs from the list. They are worth just a little HP and the boosted goals you are wanting....they will have to come right back off is you go the s/c route (maybe not, it just depends on which route you really want to go with).
You need to find a tuner there on the island before you decide on the SCT Livewire. Checkout some local Mustang Clubs, talk to people....there are tuners there. Find out what they tune with. I have 2 SCT chips and a hand held sitting in my garage. My current tuner uses Diablo...something about tuneable parameters and such.
Is your clutch going out, or you just want a new one? I will always recommend getting a new flywheel, or getting your old one resurfaced when switching clutches. Since your power goals are pretty mild....I would say get a King Cobra or a Centerforce dual friction clutch. Both are pretty cheap and work well.
Ok so no luck no one on this island tunes, as far as that with the sct live wire coming with free tunes would it be worth the 500? Also i got a quote to get the clutch put in and flywheel resurface for right at 700,, seems high to me but i dont know that much, also he said its better to resurface than buy a new fly wheel bc mustangs are externally balanced and it could throw something off he said, again im still in the very early learning stages with this car and wouldnt know if i was getting hustled or not. He also said i should upgrade the intake manifold?
