Ford Mustang Modification Advice and ways to Increase Power With Modern Car Tuning methods.

By: Pam Kenterton

The Ford Mustang is appreciated and loved throughout the world with a growing fan base. It has enjoyed a long production run and there are many stunning engines of varying sizes and different configurations to choose from. If you are looking to improve your car with more power than ever before? A lot of folks are looking into the ever popular hobby of car tuning and making impressive power gains on relatively normal cars with a measure of ease.
To hit big power figures on the Mustangs you reall need Turbo and Supercharger conversions and these are the best ways of hiking the power of the stunning Mustang engine range. The best cars for tuning up are the large capacity Mustangs cars because they, already are over engineered and doing a remap it is possible to greatly raise the bhp and torque from around a third to half more with petrols giving slightly more than diesels. Larger capacity engines always give a bigger return on your tuning investment with proven gains of 20% on NASP engines depending on the modifications selected. Typical tuning mods would include a fast road cam, induction kit, sports exhaust, sports catalyst, custom headers and fuelling upgrades as recommended on sites like TorqueCars and Car Tuning Tips.
Remapping the ecu after these mods offers more power and quicker acceleration. Many people have made mistakes tuning their Mustang tuning and we strongly urge you to consult a specialist for impartial advice.
Mistakes can be costly. There are various stages of tuning with stage 1 for simple one off parts, stage 2 meaning you need 2 or more parts to fully release the power and for competitions the full stage 3 which is strictly for track only usedue to the reliability issues and the requirement to use the higher rev range.
We see many people spending lots of money on rather modest powered Ford Mustang, hoping for a dramatic increase in power and instead, getting an unreliable car that is hard to drive in traffic. It is also true that the bigger your base power the larger the gains on offer will be with typical performance parts offering a percentage power gain over standard. Don't be fooled you end up paying a lot more if you use cheap parts.
It is fair to say that many people are attached to their cars and this might explain why they spend so much on tuning them up and trying to get more power from them. For impartial advice you really need to go to specialist tuning forum and chat with their members. We can heartily recommend that you join a site called TorqueCars (http://www.torquecars.com)as they have one of the friendliest forums and communities we have ever encountered. Most car specific forums do not always have the tuning experience and instead you need to consult with an enthusiast car site focused on car tuning where the members are used to performance modifications and the inherent issues that crop up in them.
Whatever you decide there is no substitute for the voice of experience. A wise man learns from the mistakes of others a fool makes his own. It is also handy if you know which parts work well as there are many snake oils.
Modding cars can become a crazed obsession on your Ford Mustang, and it certainly will pay to get good impartial advice before starting to modify your car.
Don't ignore the legal issues involved in Ford Mustang tuning where some governments have really clamped down on modifications but even if this is the case in your area you can see benefits stripping down and reconditioning the engine and tweaking the insides to a tighter tolerance and spec than the OEM.
Which ever modifications you go for it is worth getting some extra advice and opinions for your Ford Mustang tuning project. The wise man, after all, learns from the mistakes of others whereas a fool makes their own mistakes. Beware of marketing hype and manufacturer claims as there are many dodgy parts being sold cheap is not always best and certain not cheerful. Modding cars can get to be a an obsession and it is easy to overspend or go over budget when you get going we recommend you go and ask for professional help before starting your tuning project. A Tuned Mustang can also be hard to insure with many insurers declining cover. If you change the engine size or colour of your Ford Mustang you may even have to get the car re-registered. This often requires some paperwork or in some cases a full engineers report.
Deciding whether to do the work yourself or use a qualified mechanic can be a hard decision to make but with practice and a good guide book and a dose of common sense you will generally be able to tackle whatever comes along and the advantage of doing it yourself is that the costs will be so much lower plus you get the satisfaction from doing it without help! Enjoy yourself though and explore the world of car tuning and turns your car into something special.
