Modding - 1st Steps
Ok, getting bit by the mod bug here, and looking to add some more grunt.
Not looking to go overboard, but would like to improve sound, and seat of the pants.
What do recommend for someone just getting started? I love many of the header and exhaust setups I've seen around here. But is starting off with exhaust and adding a tune down the road a good way to go about it?
Just not sure which tune I want to go with yet, and there's a good chance I won't keep this car too long as I'll be grabbing a 2012 by next year. But in the meantime would like to improve the sound and grunt a bit.
Thanks.

2012 is just around the corner. Make sure you get something that can be easily transfered to your new 2012, like a Akrapovic exhaust. Not sure if the ecu can be swapped over.

Its called a suggestion there guy. I don't think a thread is needed for such a commonly answered question that really shouldn't have to be asked in the first place. There is a search button for a reason.
Mustang forums slow today or what?

Sorry, didn't know one couldn't own multiple cars. I'll stick to the mustang forum.
edit: not trying to start an argument
