Late to the party

[jdowen2]

Late to the party. Bought my V6 convertible just before Christmas. Added interior led's, Diode Dynamics side markers and tail light brake sequencer, Roush intake and 2014 Gt throttle body and recent MPT tune. I think that will do it for a while. But you never know, do you? Forgot GT catback installed!

Welcome. That's a good start o the mods. NEXT, suspension haha! In all seriousness we are good low key crew all about sharing knowledge to make our 3.7 Stangs as awesome as we can.

Yeah everyone here seems really awesome so far!

I just got my car two weeks ago, been driving the hell out of it.

Now to start bolting on some power!

There are a few late to the party V6 owners here. I've only had my 2015 since September. You will find this forum a great resource.

I just bought my first Mustang and in V6, last weekend! all I want to do now is drive. Handles as nice as the GT I hired in the past and more than fast enough for (the roads) where I live. But I am thinking about a supercharger, exhaust and springs!

Congrats on your car! Good to see new V6 owners given they don't make 'em any more. I also bought a '15 V6 back in September. Lots of great information here.

Glad to be here, thanks for the warm welcome and support!

Welcome. These cars don’t really need more power if you daily drive. The one mod I would do is the throttle body. Whatever is stock really squeezes out the air. A new one gets the power going quicker. IMO if you start going down a supercharge route you might as well have just ponied up the little extra cash for the GT.
I daily drive my car and I don’t want to pay for the extra gas and insurance. 300hp is enough to beat 95% of every other car. CAI, mustang Gt exhaust and throttle body, maybe a tune and put it in sport mode you’re beating almost everything on the road. All for the price of a midrange Camry. The 3.7 in this car is an utterly great engine and the cars are overbuilt to work with the 5.0 so longevity isn’t really a problem either. V6 mustang is the most overlooked and under appreciated car on the road.

I’ve had this car exactly four years now. Only problem was a failed water pump replaced under warranty at three years. I hammer the shit out of it. Best car I’ve ever driven.

plastidipped wheels and logos, smoked out all the lights, lowered with eibach springs, got a bama tune. Now i really need new wheel and tires + cold air intake, exhaust and gears on the shopping list

Before you spend all the money, make sure you're set on keeping the car and won't fall into the trap of doing all that just to end up trading in on a 5.0 a few months later. Seen it happen quite a few times.

I personally love my car and the way it runs now (except for a power pulling issue I'm getting from 4th-6th again) so I'm not trading out any time soon.

well i feel like those are relatively minor and inexpensive mods, compared to what i could be doing, i.e. supercharger.

Can't afford a GT and on a small Caribbean island with one 1/8 mile drag track. highest road limit is 50mph but my end is only 40mph, so i don't really need GT power, and am loving the fuel efficiency and cost as gas prices here are more than double the states. Already got a $585 USD speeding fine for doing 64mph in a 40 zone.

got the car at a very reasonable price considering everything is imported here, so i'm pretty happy to stay with it as am loving it so far. I would get a GT if I was in the states for sure.

FYI - 2016 GT's go for around $35,000 USD here

Gear swap is $1k+, tune is at least $100 (don't run Bama...), wheels + tires is $1500, exhaust depends on what you want but at least $400 I'd say, cold air intake new is $300. It adds up man.

Can't imagine that high of a fine for speeding! Cayman Islands were nice when I visited, much better roads than some of the other islands at least.
