Ive gotta a 200 dollar gift card to americanmuscle any ideas on what to buy 4 my v6
well the title pretty much sums things up i just want to know what i should by for my 04 v6 stang and i allready have gears tloc cia tune so what should i buy ??? i read some reveiws that said the throttle body works good any ideas???
Um, definitely not a throttle body spacer . Those are worthless , trust me i had one. I think i actually lost power. TB spacers are a joke. Truthfully, a bigger throttle body isnt needed until you go FI or have your heads and intakes ported. You won't find much for a power increase for $200. You might try some visual stuff maybe. Chin spoilers are always sweet and around 100 bucks. Some billet dress up stuff? Good luck, hope you find some stuff

Listen to this guy. Personally, I would get some new gauges. You have a short throw already. Are UDP sold for v6's on americanmuscle? Also, long tubes cost more than 200.

American Muscle doesn't have udp's for the sixer, unfortunately..I agree with the previous post about a few appearance mods, maybe. What about a pair of smoked head lights? Or you could stock up on maintenance things i.e., detailing stuff so you don't have to fork the money yourself later.
They also have rear seat deletes for under $200. Shed some weight?

Shame about the UDP's, cuz they have them for my year (94-98) and they are great upgrade!
I would go with the exhaust (check out Pypes dual-conversion kit or the full system) - but that will be more than $200. I have a throttle-body, and I didn't notice any gains yet. But I will be getting my intake port-matched...
Other than that, appearance is always an option! I personally like uprproducts for billet stuff (better selection), but there are a lot of other things for sale! Good luck, and let us know what you get!

Ever thought about a grill delete and mach chin spoiler? Thats probably the way I would go.

thanks guys i think ill either go with a couple of dress up items or chip in a lil extra and go with the exhaust i just did want to waste my money on something that would do nothin
I've heard it's one of the few bolt-ons that you can actually feel. Hopefully someone who actually has one can post here and give you a more definite answer than I am able to provide.

i have 25% UDP i think. I noticed a little bit more umph. A lot of guys have the 42% UDP and those guys say they notice a good difference. If you have a large stereo or need a lot of battery power for something, UDP may not work so well since it turns the alternator slower. But if you dont have a huge draw on the power system, UDP are a good bolt on, even though they arent on AmericanMuscle for our cars.

yeah, i bought my 42% from RPMoutlet, took like 4-5 weeks for my parts to arrive. i would suggest buying them elsewhere lol. i hear nothing but bad rep from that company, thats a shame too, cuz they have a nice procharger kit...
