Default Help me smash more mustangs and ricers!

Can anyone recommend a good stall for my 01 WS6. Had it a little over 2 months now and all ive done is an slp lid and exhaust. Headers probley coming next but this 18 year old only makes about 220$ a week so theyll have to wait a bit longer.

When it comes to going fast you really shouldnt skimp on crappy parts. You'll pay for it in the long run. Make sure you get a good tune on the tranny as well and your tune should be redone. When you go with headers, if you plan on DDing the car and keeping it, go with a good stainless set. They wont rust through in a few years. Or at least get ceramic coated. I have pacesetters myself and they wont break the bank. Do the tb bypass mod as well. Thats free hp. Cut open the bottom of your air filter mount. Just do some digging theres a good amount of little tricks here and there to make it go faster on a budget.

^^ thread high jacker! Lol^^ nice ride. Original poster, just maybe look up the free mods, we have all been in your shoes, more power asperations than money. Don't rush it and get crazy, that's where ya make the mistakes. Try to use ur want for power too do some solid research and plan around what u can afford. Maybe a month and a half and u could have a yank, another month of saving and u could get install and tune.

Op to be honest if you are looking to cut corners putting you're car together it will not run well. If you don't have the money for a $750 converter wait. Fast, cheap, reliable pick 2.

Yep, don't skip on crappy parts. You'll regret it in the longrun. Go straight to Yank and order one. Probably the best bet.

Welcome to the performance car hobby. If you can't afford to pay to play, don't do it.

I don't think he really said anyhing about buying cheap parts lol, He asked whats a good stall and yank was what he was told, he asked where he could get a good deal on a yank is how i took it. I took a hole different route, I bought a 6 speed instead of going with a stall haha

^^^^ thank you haha. I was just saying where i could get a yank a few dollars off. My car as it sits smashes anything anyone drove at my high school now that im moving up in the world on to college i figured it was time to have my ride move up with me. I plan on having this car a longgg time so waiting is no problem. Just getting the advice ahead of time

not to be a dick but since you are trying to save and are on a strict budget have you factored in the cost of a tune/cooler/install (if you arent doing it yourself) and little random things?
