mrhobbz Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Picked up a new slow car... Anyone have any cheap suggestions on mods for these? (4.6L) In the next 4-6 months I'll be doing a turbo build with the on 3 3v kit, looking for a bit more pep until then, I also need some paint work (fixing a deep scrape on rear fender) if anyone has any good paint contacts. P.S. any track days coming up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Gear, exhaust, and a tune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrhobbz Posted June 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Im pretty sure gears have been swapped already (3.73s it seems like). I'll be having thorne do a tune on it here soon, need to get rid of the stupid throttle "deadzone" (automatic unfortunately) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrhobbz Posted June 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Bottle. Lol, I've considered it. I want to go fairly easy on it for a while since it was a repo with 0 service history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 3v lol Anything is better than the magnum though. Glad you are happy. Exhaust is a must of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2011SVT Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Exhaust will net you little/nothing on the stock car other than the sound. CAI/Tune. Gears (I went with 4.10s). Aluminum or CF driveshaft will make a noticeable difference. Number of relatively simple suspension mods and settings will make the car corner much better if you are into that sort of thing.
