Personally here’s my experience with my 2007 4.0 build. After you throw on the must add CAI, Exhaust, Headers (optional) combined with the tune to wrap it all together. You’ll really notice a change to the car. You really only have a handful of mods after that to help your NA 4.0 build. You’re gonna need some grippier tires to maintain traction to the ground so you’re not spinning out that right rear. I see a lot of guys who are always spinning and it’s wasted power! Thats why I run the 235/55/R17 Pirelli Cinturato Strada, really a quality beefier tire for the price point. Aftermarket coil overs Suspension is all optional, if you have the Pony package then you’re doing pretty good, it’s a bit smoother ride and of course if you’re wanting to drop your car 1” to 2” inches for looks get rid of that stock gap always a favorite. Some like to get a higher gear ratio, 3.73 or 4.10 depending. You’re gonna lose some MPG but gain a bit quicker acceleration. Next best thing is Performance wires/coil pack and some NGK iridium plugs really help take out the lag in the throttle response, adds a couple HP, and better MPG. I did notice on your Temp gauge you were running over mid (halfway). REALLY good thing you guys can do for this engine is bring that temp down is with a 180 degree thermostat. And for any new 4.0 guys with a 100k + miles 05-10, WATCH that OEM plastic thermostat housing!! Those cheap plastic replacements WILL break, do not even waste your money, just get the Simmons Auto Solid Aluminum housing and you and your wallet will thank me later. 🙏🏼🤞🏼 Hope this helps some of you new guys. 4.0 is a really solid car for any starting out in the car scene. Enjoy what you have, don’t let those guys say nonsense about “oH iTs A V6”. When they say anything, go ahead and ask them when they bought their GT why they didn’t opt for the GT500? The dumb look on their face is always priceless and you can smile and walk away. Everyone drives what they can afford, so enjoy your car and the build!!
You've pretty much covered anything haha, the only thing I was not running was the 3.73 gears I wanted to do and the thermostat housing. And I 100% agree with you about enjoying what you have, also your response to the gt guys asking why not buy a gt is great
This deserves more likes
So, just before this comment. I met with the guy who I just struck a deal with to buy my next car. It’s a 2006 Mustang v6 premium and as much as I wanted the v8, this helped me see that I couldn’t help that. Thank you
@Jack Russelle Lewis i agree
Legendary
For you 4.0 owners out there these are my top Bolt on recommendations. 70 mm BBK Throttle Bottle BBK shorty headers. BBK CAÍ. Bama Rev 4 tuner. Coil pack,Wires, spark plugs.
Was there a change in ur top speed bro??
@@hbg7078 “Top Speed” is all in your Tune. If you’re looking at increasing top end speed just pick yourself up a flash tuner or go get your vehicle tuned. I’d recommend getting a set of tires/wheels that can withstand the MPH you are wanting to achieve. Driveshaft upgrade too.
@@hbg7078 4.0 L Can reach Top speeds of 130-145 without the governor. There’s a few links out on the web with the info.
@@kevingarcia9514 top speed is horsepower and gearing
@@trystanswansonart 05-09 4.0 V6 govern out about 115MPH. With a tune is can be by passed. Thanks for the refresher !
My 05 4.0 has almost 300,000 miles on the odometer, and she's still running strong. No engine or transmission problems, at all. It has been a great car. Not very fast, but it has been reliable.
How long have you had it and what kind of maintenance
I've had my 09 v6 for about going to 9 years and it has 175k the main big problem I had a couple months back was the transmission went out and had to get it rebuilt
I got the original 4.0 SOHC in my 01 XPLR Sport 2door up to 375,000 miles B4 I cracked cyl 4 trying to race an SVT Raptor 6.2 on the highway, that engine would prolly still be running to this day around 430k on the odometer if it wasn't for that Raptor lol. O and I put an Eaton M90 on it from a Thunderbird Supercoupe at around 225k on the XPLR, I call my 01 Explorer an SVT Explorer because I tried to build what I imagined Ford would have built as an 01 to 03 SVT Explorer Sport(I have an 01 SVT cobra so I'm an SVT kinda Ford guy lol). The way cyl 4 cracked, I've seen the exact same piston breakage on multiple 4.0 Sohcs that broke under full load and 9 times out of 10 it's always cyl 4 that cracks a piston lol. Ive had a few engines since my first motor but that's because I just get em from the junkyard for a dime a dozen and usually the timing drive is all busted and u can usually get away with just rebuilding the timing drive and she's good to go. I am gonna build a proper motor for it eventually tho, the only problem is that the couple or the few 4.0 performance internals suppliers know they can get away with ridic prices because almost nobody has perf parts for this German made Cologne 4.0 SOHC. I just wish somebody would build a performance timing drive kit thats better then the Ford kit cuz just about all the aftermarket timing drive kits for the 4.0 don't have the same quality or reliability of the Ford timing drive kit for the 4.0 SOHC, I've done extensive research on this lol and their are a few UA-cam vids that illustrate pretty well just how much better the Ford timing drive kit is compared to aftermarket kits. However I do currently have an Amazon timing drive kit that I'm testing out lol and so far so good after like 10k with my blower. But I'm in the process of refreshing another Junkyard motor cuz my crank is nicked up under the rear seal and keeps letting oil out. Repair sleeve seal didn't help either lol. I accidentally nicked the crank when I was swapping out the rear seal while refreshing the motor so it's my own fault lol, I'm making another better motor because of it lol. I currently have 4 4.0s sitting in my garage right now that I'm tearing down for best candidate parts to make a good motor. But eventually I will build a motor with custom pistons and rods etc and I already have upgraded head bolts, I woulda got ARP head studs but they cost more then the engine Soo lol I just got rid of the TTY bolts and went to some Grade 12 bolts instead. I'm too invested in the V6 set up to swap in a V8 plus I want to keep my air conditioning and four-wheel drive. The dream would be to get DOHC cyl heads from the UK off a Sierra Cosworth and adapt them to the 4.0 block which requires redoing the entire timing drive so the timing Drive wouldn't be an issue anymore after that the real issue is getting the Cosworth cylinder heads they're almost impossible to find. I'd love to have a 4.6 DOHC in my XPLR like in my 🐍, but like I said I'm already to invested in the V6 setup and that's too much work and the torsion bar leaf spring suspension rides like crap anyway and I'd like to get an 02 4 door with a 4.6 SOHC v8, then I could DOHC swap no problem whilst retaining 4wd and ac, plus the suspension in the 02 4-door is independent coil springs all the way around and is much nicer than torsion bars in the front and leaf springs in the rear. The reason I want an 92 4dr and not 03-05 4dr is because in 03 they started using the electronic throttle bodies, the O2 still has the cable throttle body. Tuning an electronic throttle body used to be harder than tuning a cable throttle body, but it's not anymore these days, I just prefer my gas pedal to be connected to a throttle cable rather than some wires lol for a whole bunch of reasons. I'm planning on ditching my front torsion bars and doing a coilover swap after I install this lift kit that's been sitting in my garage for a while. Sorry I wrote so much
Keep making 4.0 videos! I got a 5mt 06 model as my first car and I’m still enjoying it
Yeah thanks! I will def upload more content for you guys
Same
please do, just bought a 2010 4.0 :)
I have a 2009 mustang and have been curious about upgrading it. thanks bro you gave me some things to look for
Just got my first car! 2010 V6 Premium convertible mustang!! Just got my quote for the cold air intake, turbo, and tuning!! Video was great to watch and super helpful
how much was your quote?
yooo I just bought a 05 v6 mustang today appreciate your video bro, crazy how you just uploaded not that long ago too
Thanks bro, I really appreciate you watching, hope you have fun with your new car
Yo I got one the 9th💸
Great video man. Very informative 👍
Thank you bro I needed this
This is going to be my son’s first car trying to see which one is good thank you!
Very nice 4.0
I have a 09 4.0 mustang with a lot of mods performance and suspension I am going to finish installing my nitrous system and a few more suspension mods then I will get a dyno tune for a 100 shot.
When it comes to the 4.0 v6 plat form a lot of v8 owners that talk trash about the v6 have no knowledge. Carroll shelby has a signature 4.0 v6 mustang called a shelby CS/6 and it's worth more then a lot of gt. I love my v6 and plan on buying a boss 302 LS edition. I have owned v8's and I like them both but I never hated on people's build because a true car enthusiast would appreciate the build and rare and unique set up's.
I wouldn't bother with the cold air intake and shorty headers. Although they add to the sound, they don't do much for performance. I would go with a Zex nitrous oxide kit. They sell one that is dedicated to the 2005-10 Mustang V6. I would keep it conservative and limit it to a 55 shot. I know you can go more with this kit. However, I would want the engine to last and I would like the nitrous to last also. The initial boost in horsepower would make that car really responsive when you mash the pedal. The car will need a tune to accommodate the nitrous. Add good tires and install a 3.73 gear and that car would be fun. At some point if you want to improve sound, a good axle back would help. Keep the cost reasonable because you don't want to put a bunch of money into an older base model Mustang. It will get to the point where you're spending 3.7 liter V6 or older GT money. My suggestion are to set a budget and keep the money spent reasonable. I would limit my expenses to no more than $3,000 at most. The nitrous kit can go in your next car and if the tires aren't down to the cords, you can install them on your next car.
The important thing is to have some fun driving your car. If some jerk decides to criticize you for buying a V6, take him about 20 miles away from his house and kick him out of your car because you feel he is too good to ride in your piece of junk. Obviously, I'm only kidding. On a serious note, don't worry about meeting someone else's standards. The only ones I owe anything to are God, the people I love, and me. The older I get the less I care about what others think. You'll often find that people that tend to be critical often have more problems than you do.
I have an 06 4.0 and I added a few mods to it and it’s wonderful watching my vacuumcleaner beat the v8s on the road
What have you added to it?
@@dylanbirmingham5517 I have a cold air intake somehow along the way I got GT ultra tires
I’ve put an aftermarket clutch
Headers
The exhaust is a more free flowing one
I also did a cat delete (I swear I don’t live in Texas don’t turn me in)
And I’ve gotten a softer suspension Bc dirt roads are abundant here in Tex- I mean Mexico
bro, what part of Texas?? I live in mid cities and I’m looking for a set up like yours. Ever since I got my ‘10 mustang 4.0. Ive been regretting for not waiting another 2 year for a 4.6 or 5.0. I wanna do some littles mods.
Could you name your parts tho??
Great video btw!
Thanks! I really appreciate that
I’ve had my 09’ V6 for about a year now. It has every factory option including the glass roof. It’s true, they’re not very fast but my car is a great cruiser with a great view. It’s good there are still ways to make them better.
My mom bought hers brand new in 2009. She loved that car until her last day.
Every time I drive it I think “this is a great place to be”
Hey man, I’m looking to flip this car. What r some common issues u had? Throughout its life.
@@brentolbrych230they’re just lovely cars regardless of engine displacement. They’re an American heritage vehicle and generally beautiful to see on the road. I’m happy that you can have a connection to your mother in the form of that car.
After seeing this video you have re vitalized the ideas to do a little more on the 4.0.
I’m about 6 months out from my license. I hopefully will save enough for a mid 2000s v6. This was definitely helpful, thx man
Yeah I’m glad I could help!
I’ll sell you mine
J O haha
It doesn’t hurt to go cheaper and get an early 2000s. I have an 02 and today I’m getting an 09, cheers to you m8
Did you ever get that mustang and your license?
You literally described it lol. I got this car a year ago when I turned 17 for my birthday and I’m a huge car enthusiast lol
Exactly gotta start somewhere
I’m trying to buy one currently at the age of 16
@@saulmorajr4811 16 as well rn bought a 2009 v6 myself ab 5 months ago.. really fun car you wont regret it. 73k miles for $5000
I have an 07' V6 I enjoy it and love it regardless of it being a V6. These motors are definitely not very responsive to power adders. On the dyno mine only made 202whp estimated 246 crank. I have LT headers with custom mid and exit pipes, 70mm throttle body, CAI, plugs and wires with coil pack. That's it for power adders. I also have a built rear end with 3:73's and limited slip, 1 piece drive shaft, Koni suspension and 2" lowering springs. I do have a garage built turbo kit waiting to go in and when I say garage built it was put together with eBay parts and custom made manifolds. I'm just waiting to get some forged pistons from Supersix because the stock pistons are known to be weak and crack under boost upside is these motors come with forged rods from the factory.
This would be really cool to see, I am not at the point that I could cobble together a turbo kit from eBay without some help haha
If you have an 05, I highly suggest rerouting the coolant that flows through the throttle body. ESPECIALLY if you're putting a CAI on it. The 05 was the only s197 that they did it on.
Hey nice video :) I'm about to get 2005 v6 stang for a project just for fun :)
Thanks! Let me know how that goes!
Litty v6 content !
Good information, that tuner is most important as you modify your stock settings on your computer Will not recognize these mods, n you will have codes , ie check engine, so do the tune as u modify!!
Awesome video man I just started doing the whole UA-cam thing I would love some recommendations on what your outlook is on the screaming demon coil pack for the 4.0 and what type of performance chip would you recommend I am looking for something that is really going to step this thing up by at least 20 plus horsepower and it would be great to get some type of performance chip that does not require a professional tune and what would your outlook be on the bama 50 states tune
Good advice for the most part , with a couple exceptions. Finding a CAI that doesn't actually require a tune in order to keep your LTFT and STFT under 20% deviance is harder to find that a Unicorn.
So what you get is a CEL got Banks running lean, which can eventually result in your valve train melting from the heat.
I agree about the Tune.
Besides the length of the headers, one is used for Turbo, the other is the basic set up for a supercharger.
Is one everyone misses. Work at creating a good.upgraded suspension, and charging system and buy a Cam have it installed.
The roush,airaid or bbk no good?
@@J_Dukes nope for other buyers and the experience I had is within a couple of days you will get a check engine light for "running lean"
And Sorry to say some of the biggest distributers of these parts are unreliable and apparently are more interested in making a fast buck.
Good vid
I started out with an 08 v6. After owning it for 3 years I purchased a 2014 gt in 2019. Still have my 5.0 and I will never get rid of it. The best car I have ever owned.
I currently have a 2009 V6 and I can’t wait until I can afford a 2014 GT
@@TwoStepTeggy you will not regret it trust me 😏
I own a 2010 V6 and saved up $27k as of this comment but I was thinking about buying a 2014-2018 GT. Only problem is that my car insurance is tied with my family's insurance with a family discount. So if I buy a newer car I have to pay way more since there will be no discount and my insurance would be separate. Really debating
I am 46 and my dream car is a Mustang 4L V6 2009. I actually own it and it is one helluva car 👍🏻😎🚀
As a 2010 4.0 I feel left out...But i subbed anyway haha. Mine is already got SCT ecu tune, made a world of difference. Like you said, I would recommend that to anyone with a 4.0. my airaid CAI is in manufacturing process and my mod soon enough will be shorties, excited to see the results...A mod I would recommend as well not exactly for power but better response is Iridium spark plus, that with a tune makes a ton of difference. I still need to try with the Accel coil pack and wires but iridium spark plugs are def a good idea! just my 2 cents
Haha I’m so sorry for leaving you guys out I always forget that the 2010 is the same 🤦🏽 and yeah the spark plugs are a great mod after a tune and another supporting mod, I actually ran the Accel coil pack and it was a good purchase. Def get those shorty headers tho they make a huge difference in the sound from these engines
i’m waiting for the coil pack wires and plugs to come in wednesday! super excited to get those in as i’ve been putting it off for a while now, running the ford performance cai along with pace setter long tube headers, pypes x pipe, and straight pipe out to some 4x16 inch tips and i absolutely love the sound
Whats cool about these 4.0's is that it came with forge rods from factory meaning you could do some upper end work and slap a turbo on it and go to the moon :^)
Subbed, which cai you recomend and should i buy a tuner the same time ( is it noticable if i do)?
i have a 2006, with a vortech V-3 supercharger producing around 348HP. I would recommend it. :)
That's rgh buddy keep tha 4.0 alive I have one and proud of it in the long run I will be getting more power out of it soon as of now I'm doin 335,350rwhp/410,415 to the crank giving V8's hell and they can't stand me 🤣😂🤣😂
Nice upload vids
Building my v6 07, air intake, throttle body spacer, shorty headers, 93 performance tune daily driver
I went from a G37S to this i really miss my G :( but this stang is not bad
Hey man I saw ur headlights on the thumbnail, looks like we got the same ones, did you change out the bulbs to white? if so can you please link me them? thanks brotha
i went with pro charger shorty headers cold air intake open borla atak im getting around 380 to 400 hp im given the newer 5.0 coyote a run for the money
A tune is the best bang for buck. From factory they are running a world standard octane the for 82 octane, so basically no timing low to mid rpm.
Is it worth modding a 09 v6 or should I just swap for a v8?
Just bought a 05 V6 Manual for 3.2k, 140k Miles. I think it wasn’t too shabby for only being 15. We will see how she lasts 😁
RIP Clutch
So how did it go
Lmkkkk bc i have the same car, the owner sold it to me w problems already ripppp, we’re working on getting it fixed but lmk what was your experience w yours
Hey I just got a project 05 mustang , can you make a “project” video ? . Things that I should replace to make it a safer ride( break parts, engine parts, wheels, things for bad traction, etc.) I’m a newbie when it comes to cars and know very little but I want to go to school for this typa thing and if I can fix my car it’ll definitely give me the confidence to go back to school.
Tie rods, control arms, rear shocks, thermostat housing needs the aluminum replacement option. The listed item's above are the common wear points and if over 150k should be done asap.
any opinions on plug and play performance chips for a 2010
Maintenance is the best mod
I wouldn’t even worry about headers. CAI, Exhaust, gears, UD Pully and tune.
05 V6 Mustang. A regular K&N Filter seems to help. Bosch platinum 4 spark plugs definitely helps. Synthetic 5w 30 Royal Purple or Mobil 1. This is what I'm planning to use for my 05 Mustang V6 stock. I wonder if these mods will help
Ofcourse but you want mods so Do
Coil pack
Fuel injectors
Cold air intake stay away from spectre intakes
For real more affective mods get
Catless Exuast with an Xpype and tune for the most power
Then do long tube headers on 93 octane
Next do a bigger throttle body this will really wake up on engine
If you want to really get crazy get cams / ported heads, and a bigger intake manifold this will be the most expensive but their the best ones for really boosting power gains especially addings turbos or goin procharge. This is advice from a v8 owner i did this mods first all in order i seen good ass results
Is any intake $300> gonna be effective like the pricey ones?
Dual exhaust , bbk TB, long tube pacesetter, 93 oct tune, x pipe, bigger wheel setup, accel coil pack, LIVEWIRE wires n iridium spark 🔌, pypes high flow 🐈, v3 sprint booster, bbk cold air intake, FM outlaw axle back 4 inch tips (up to date mods) THESE MODS WILL HELP ALOT OF YOU 4.0 STANGS OUT TRUST ME I GOT THEM ON MINE!!
Also 7.5 rearend or 8.8 , 3.73 or 4.10 ⚙, lower CA, Panhard Bar (Adjustable)
still all good? will these be good for 06? what did u do for tuning
How fast does it go now with all that
@Insomnia it was pretty quick for what it was quarter mile time about 14.3, 14.4 somewhere in there .
Upgraded now tho 5.0 10 speed
My big question is is it worth getting a tuner with a manual?
I have an 05 v6 mustang, I personally love the car but would never modify it other than looks. It’s a nice daily but I’m gonna save up for a 2nd or 3rd gen coyote. Leave the v6 as a daily
Yeah fair enough, especially if you are shooting for the next gen coyotes, which one are you leaning toward?
Same here. Looks good. But i dont want to go thru all the motions of speeding this up. Going GT next though.
I've been working on cars for 20 years just a heads up cold air intake actually dropped your horsepower because it requires a fuel pump upgrade.
Any updates on your mods?
I just posted a video update on my mods. I will post some nitrous runs by June of next year. Right now it snows off and on at the moment.
A "cold air" intake must be in the fender well or grille, otherwise it's more of a hot ass air intake and actually works against the engine and causes overheating
I installed a K&N Filter and it made a slight difference and added a tad bit of power and makes it louder.
I'm trying to get more power from my 2007 v6 gt mustang. What are the best brands and specifics I should look into when getting the cold air intake and the exhaust headers?
v6 gt???
I know this is about mods, but I noticed you reply to most of your comments so I thought I would ask, would you say a 2005 v6 would be a good car? I’m about 7 months from being able to get my license, and I was trying to find a car that looked good, and was just generally good for around 5k used, I have seen a lot of these on the used market, so I was wondering whether you would peg that as a good option? Or whether you would recommend something different, thank you
All things considered, its a pretty good car. All around good but not excellent at anything, but it is reliable. The gas mileage is pretty average, but it has pretty ok power and is very torquey. If you wanted to get something with a little more power and faster, definitely recommend the 2011-2014 v6's, but i honestly prefer the body style for the 2005-2009, plus the 2011-2014s will be a little more expensive. It also sounds very good for a v6, and there is a ton of aftermarket support for bolt on's if you so choose to upgrade the car in the future. Working on it is also pretty easy theres a ton of room in the engine bay and relatively easy to understand what is going on. Its a very good bang for your buck car and since it was my first car I'm a little biased but i think you should go for it cause its a good first step into the car world
@@erikjenks6426 Alright, thank you so much for the extensive reply, How reliable are they as the mileage gets higher? When I was looking on the used market most of the ones I saw had around 150k miles, do you think they would still be very reliable with that much usage? Thanks again
Of course I'm glad I can help! So I don't want to sell you that it will be perfect, cause there will be 4.0s with problems, and for the most part they should be fine (other the rare engine chain guide problem, if you can find a car that has had this problem fixed and replaced with a new timing chain guide, that would be ideal), I actually purchased mine at 130k miles. Ideally, you would be able to find one with a maintenance history and a well taken care of, cause if that's the case, it will be reliable past 150k miles. And on top of that, it doesn't make enough power that the engine would blow any pistons or any things like that and has a very hardy bottom end. It just comes down to maintenance history and if the previous owner took care of it
Inhave the 05 and its not that bad honestly haha it looks good sounds good but its not that fast
Any tips my 05 gt 4.6 is shaking at idle not my spark plugs or coils just can’t find what it is
as a 16 year old with a 2006 mustang v6 i put a cold air intake on myself but i don’t know what else to put on so i won’t kms driving it😂
Shooting for a vortech and a tr3650 or tr6060 swap this year and also keeping an eye out for internals.
Yeah you’ll be pushing power for sure, I’m also running the tr3650 with my coyote swap that I’m doing hopefully it holds up
@@erikjenks6426 a tr3650 with a coyote should be interesting, but it should hold up just fine
nice i’m planning to go with an inter cooled procharger to start then upgrade internals and hopefully a custom grind cam...currently has the stock auto 😣 but definitely looking to swap a stage 2 tr6060 if it’s within my budget this year then around the fall i’m hoping to go widebody with a shirokai kit
What is the best tune to get for my 2006 mustang v6
I bought a 2010 V6 as my first sports car back in 2019. To this day, I get bullied by V8s all the time. I earned upto $27k as of this comment and can easily downpay for a GT. The insurance is the only thing holding me back from upgrading cars but I'm thinking about getting a 2011+ GT. Would it make a big difference in insurance? I'm currently paying $150 for the insurance of my V6. As for mods, I switched from single to Duel exhaust kit with Roush catbacks and the rest are stock
I'm in the same boat as you! My story to the T! I wanted to get a 2015 but the insurance is insane!!
Man those prices, i just bought one for almost 9k. But its in the netherlands. Very expensive to get usa cars in NL
Hey could you post a video on how to fix my p0108 code on my 4.0 mustang I’m still a lil lost I don’t a lot of work to my car but wiring and stuff I’m new to it lol
Mine came on today, I have a 2006 mustang. Not sure what the issue is yet.
Shorty headers without duel exhaust? I Need duel exhaust..
I have a bbk cold air intake and it added 24hp
Add a procharger supercharger and you’ll be set 😎 From my experience!
🤝🤝🤝
How do these affect gas mileage?
Shorty headers 0hp gain. CAi, Tune, 3.73 gearz.
I have an 06 V6 and I've added the SLP power-flo axelback exhaust and the gen 5 LED taillights, what do you think I should do next, my budget is roughly 300 bucks
If you had a couple hundred more to spend I would have said tuner, but with $300 you can actually get the BBK shorty headers
@@erikjenks6426 A tuner would be great, the bama/sct x4/sf4 tuner would be cool. I think I wanna do that now. I've also considered the airaid mxp cold air intake but without a tune it wouldn't add a ton

how many mpg are you getting on your mustang
How much power u talking about if all these modes are installed..I have a 2010 4.0 with BBK cold intake system...
it varies but realistically your'e probably in the 185-200hp range with all shorty headers, cai, and email tune...
i had at one point all this plus aluminum driveshaft and gears, the gears made the biggest difference imo, without tune and with cai and headers i made 178rwhp
Hi, I am Chris. I have an 07 V6 Mustang. I have done a lot of work to the car. I have dressed it up a lot. I know its not a GT but I would like to maximize this car. Again, I have put a lot of money into it and its a really good looking car. Can you help me with the performance, understanding its just a V6. Hope to hear from you, Chris, Wilmington NC
I have worked on this car for a long time. It looks great but it is slow of course bc its just a V6. If anyone could help me with suggestions to increase the HP, I would appreciate that. Thanks, Chris
umm, sorry about the language barrier, a Finn here - but i hear that the piston rings are prone to failing when you go for higher horsepower. i have a vortech V-3 supercharger on mine, built by a previous owner. she's around 348 horses (to the wheels), and very enjoyable. At the moment i don't feel safe about boosting it for higher horse power without changing the pistons... :)
and mine is a 06...
pre owned vortech kit might be worth your while? @@Chris-li6do
I got a V6 2006 Mustang I just got a CAI on, anyone else recommend what I should do next? Kind of tight on money, but willing to spend some on it.
The best upgrade is to get v-8.
does anyone know if i could program the key so the top goes down when i turn it on or if there is a remote i could get for a 2007 ?
My 05 Mustang only has a cat delete, K&N Cold Air intake and radiator fan with racing plugs, lowered about 2", and it gets about 240 HP
If you know what to do with 4 litres, V8s aren't that special
Well said.
I recently just save up all summer to but one for 4,500 and I was gonna buy a tuner kit but they said that that could blow up you engine lol. Is this true on a automatic??
It won't blow ur engine up get a dyno though let a professional tune it believe me I have a 4.0 automatic almost fully modified like seriously and I have no problems with the car and I love it she's no joke rgh now
@@lamontmoore410 hey veryyyyy late reply but how much is it to tune in buying my 05 tomorrow
What can I buy to my 4.0 mustang 2006 so It can go faster? Any recommendations
Check my videos out and the description i got alot of mods you can see and try out👌🏾
looking a a 06 for 3000 has 156k on it clean body
2:11 is when the video starts to talk about the upgrades.
i have shortys and a air intake but don’t know how to tune😔
Go check out LMR.com or American muscle, you can get some handheld tuners with some "custom" tunes they they send out with your tuner that will allow you to get better engine performance
Anyone know where to get a big cam for a v6 mustang 05-09?
Use mobile 1. Oil and k&n oil filter
Where did u get your shorty headers
I got mine from LMR.com
Finally not a GT
Why is this only for years up to 09? I have a 2010 and it’s a 4.0 v6. Just trying to figure out what my options are. I know I fucked up no need to tell me
Yeah sorry the 2010s are the same thing I actually need to change the title, everything I said in the video applies to your Mustang too
It's not really a cold air intake if it's under the hood with all the heat. Doing a cold air intake with the hood scoop would do that. That would be a true cold air intake
I got my mustang when I was a freshman and everyone clowned on me because it is a v6 but I didn’t care because it will still gap there soccer mom cars 👍🤦♂️😂
Bro why do people hate, at least you have a car. And plus, v8 insurance is pretty high for a high-school kid lol
@@holdenamos7445 Fr like I mean I mean I changed a lot sense this last comment but tbh I’m just happy I have something to get me places tbh
I wouldn’t buy any expensive mods until you can control your vehicle period learn your car first then upgrade the power
fortunately these cars dont have any power
What blinkers are u running?
They're the Axial turn signal housings
Premium blinker fluid for these bad bois!
How about a 13?
Did you mean a 2013 v6?
I have a 08 convertible stock anyone have any ideas on what I should to do it?
Wrong video, but the internet is a huge place search what you're lookin for
First thing I did to my 06 V6 was a new exhause and that really changed the feel of the car, I got the SLP power-flo, you can find it on American muscle
@@cobymendoza8423 thanks appreciate you fam I’m going to check them out now💪🏾
how bout asking papa for a 5.0 yo
A great option
I have a stock one and god damn its so slow
Lmao yeahhhhhh it be like that, they definitely made it underpowered on purpose from factory
getting walked by honda civics out here
Yep take the $500 and trade it in....
V6 uhhhh
How about just sell it 😂😂
You don't try to turn an ordinary car into a fast car you just buy a V8....
How do you feel Abt the Ford gt motor or the Porsche 911
@@jeremiahthomas5482 Anything forien is really touchy. Very difficult and expensive to work on. But if you can afford it you can't take money with you. I prefer Ford's, easy to wrench on.
Best mod is just buy a v8 😂🤡🤡🤡
