    Re: Any Performance Mods To YOUR Car?

    Mods for my mustang: shorty headers, cat deletes, 3" SS exhaust SVT axlebacks (Borla stingers removed, waaaayy to loud w/o cats) and soon to go back to stock mufflers as the SVT`s are still very loud at start up and wot. BMR springs, lower control arms / relo brackets, upper control arms / relo bracket, adj panhard, K member and koni dampners. 2.3 TVS Supercharger, conservtive tune, vacuum / boost gauge, Ford racing throttle body, 123 mm CAI, IDS 1000 injectors, triple by pass dual fan heat exchanger, oil catch cans. Changed 3.73 to 3.31 being I had zero traction in 1-3 gears. Fish tail at 80 isn`t much fun. Future mods, new fuel system (Fore) once the corn is available in my area and looking at wider forged wheels, no traction. Currently at 625 rwhp and 570 rwtq at 8-9 psi.

    Once I break her in I`ll do either a Piggy Back or a Tune. Both are good for a 1 sec 0-60 reduction. Stock is 4.5.
    I have one of the first 500 of the fastest AWD VW`s brought to the states.

    4u2nvinmtl, That`s impressive. Especially your 60ft times.

    I went with ARH longtube headers, CAI and a dyno tune this past spring. Just went back into the shop Thursday for a SC with Meth injection. Should give it a nice kick in the pants.

    Re: Any Performance Mods To YOUR Car?

    Gee, I missed this thread too!

    For what might be the first time since ...[thinking]...forever, none of my current vehicles are souped up!

    Selling the supercharged Crown Vic has simplified my life *SO* much that I`m not in any big hurry to mod the current one; so far I`ve only tweaked the suspension. I *have* accumulated a pile of parts for it though, and sooner or later...

    The Audis stay stock other than debadging. The Jag`s stock except for Konis that went on when it was new. The Tahoe`s staying stock....for now

    Re: Any Performance Mods To YOUR Car?

    No real performance mods for me, though I have considered doing a CAI or SRI. Can`t decide which way to go or if it`s really worth it.

    I did some aesthetic mods: interior led`s, footwell lighting, Opt7 led`s for lows and highs(want HID but too big of a project), and put a complete sound system in. Also vinyl` my tail lights so it`s all red, didn`t like the clear accents.

    Im hoping in this next year to do a katzkin leather self install and maybe a remin dash/trim kit.

    Re: Any Performance Mods To YOUR Car?

    So if you add vents and stripes, it`s 10 hp increase, or is it more since it`s a double set?

    When combined you only get a percentage of each, not sure what the percentage is though. That is how it was explained to me on the Camaro5 forums. To my car I added a ported TB a 5hp to 10hp add, a CAI about 15hp add, high flow cats about 10 to 15hp add. But I was told you would get the hp if those were added by themselves with no other modifications, but when you add each one you only get a percentage of each. I was never told the percentage.

    If I had to guess when both are added you might get a total of 8hp give or take. But don`t forget to add the chrome valve cover than I think you get every added hp doubled or is it triple.

    Re: Any Performance Mods To YOUR Car?

    Just bumping this to say that I do really enjoy seeing what perf mods people here have done. I`m still, uhm...detoxing after selling the blown Crown Vic, though I have started accumulating stuff for the new one
