Alright so I recently bought a 2003 3.8 Coupe, and I would like to put some mods on and maybe a power adder down the road...But im having trouble trying to decide what to put on and what brands...I have been shopping around but I am still at a loss here lol. So any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

not trying to steal this thread just a quick question. Is the t-lok what makes a v6 burn out with both wheels instead of just the one.

u need 15 characters or more to post.. i went back and added to it tho and didnt remove that...

u suggested a t-lock earlier in this thread.. then you asked what a t-lock is.. im saying be careful when you suggest things if you dont quite know exactly what they are

CAI,
3.73 or 4.10 gears... 3.73 are better for the daily driver if thats what you use it for.

T-lok is a must
Shorty Headers... I went with BBK on this and the CAI. your choice

Something like that lol, but get the gears and the T-lok at the same time. You don't want to have to take that diff apart again. It is a painnn

3.73 for manual, and 4.10 for automatic, and daily driving, t-lok (Yeah), headers, not really a necesscity, but they can change the exhaust a little, and cold air intake get the seventy five dollar one from AM

I drive an auto with 3.73.
Word of advice before you get the gears though... Order the T-lok and the gears from ford racing. Your gears will whine all day if you put in those Motive Performance Plus gears from AM. Their isnt anyway you can stop it either. Just remember to order both parts from the same company.
