Hey guys, my cousin has a 2001 Mustang (V6, 3.8L), and I wanted to get him some engine upgrades for his highschool graduation present............but, i don't know too much about what is avalible. Do you guys have any suggestions on what type of upgrades i should buy? (assume i don't have a buget)

Assume i'm a noob when it comes to tech talk..............

Thanks.

(I hope i put this in the right section)
 
i would go for the dual exhaust, for looks, sound, and a little power.. just make sure you get true duals, 2.25" or 2.5" pipes, and not something that connects to the factory y-pipe. but if your cousin is into maximum straight-line acceleration, then the gears are the way to go, but they are also the most expensive. you could also look at some lowering springs for a better stance and handling. if you go with a cold air intake, then look into getting a larger (73mm) mass air sensor and a larger (65mm) throttle body. alone they wont do much, but they are necessary for any later mods that might be made.
 
OK.........

...........sorry if this is a totally stupid question, but can you put a turbocharger/supercharger on this type of car?

Also, what about a chip (which i know nothing about), are they worth the money?
