WEll i dont know what to do, i have a 2002 gt mustang "auto". WEll i have $2500 right now, and i got plenty more comin in? what should i do? i was thinking about a body kit, but i also want performance parts? what would you recomend? gears,trottle body, chip programmer, i dont know what else? anything you can help me with that will get me up there... please help thanks alot :nice:
 
Read, buy, install....
But seriously, what is your goal? Looks, Drag, AutoX, all of the above (and if so, what is most important to you?) You've got to build the Stang that you want, not that everybody else wants.
For starters, full exhaust, including long tube headers (BBK's are nice), mid pipe, catback=about 25 RWHP. And add 4.10s or 4.30s, a tune, K&N filter, pulleys and you'll be having fun...ENJOY!
 
well, IMO you should leave off the body kit. I would focus on performance first, just my opinion of course. Some great mods that will make your car handle better and perform better are 4.10 or 4.30 gears, chip, cams, long tube headers, jerry mod, tranny cooler, PI stallion torque coverter, o/r midpipe, catback of ur choice, subframes, upper/lower control arms, springs, drag radials, etc....

or just save for a s/c or nitrous. If i were i your shoes, and had that money to spend, i would focus on the tranny and rear end. 4.10s, jerry mod, tranny cooler, and torque converter. That will really wake the slushbox auto up :nice: then, i would use the left over for exhaust or start on the suspension mods and then save for the cams :drool:
 
ok then out of all of this what exactly will i be able to afford? :-) and how much will install cost of most of this? unless i can do most myself.... and where can i get most of this stuff? thanks and what do you guys think about the diable chip programmer? i found one for 300... good deal?
 
Gears will be about 150-200 with 200-300 for install, so plan 4-500 for them total, cams would be about 525-550 plus 200-250 for springs, install will be quite a bit here, so hopefully you know someone can help or have some good tools and can follow instructions well. So you should have about a grand left. That should be enough for the exhaust/stall convertor and all that
