Just wondering, what are the common paths you guys are taking to get more power out of your V6 Mustangs?

I have a friend who has a 2015 V6 with the 3.15 gears, and we are looking to get more power. :cheers:

Exhaust (very restrictive mufflers on the V6)
Cold Air Intake (gets more air into the engine)
Headers (Go shorty on this one. Long Tubes are nice but are a pain in the a** with a lot of other supporting modifications needed)
Tune ( unleashed tuning)

In all with that list I would say to expect at least +30hp and +20-30tq. ( more then likely power gains will be much higher)

Thank you. I don't mean to be an a#$, but how do we know the mufflers are restrictive? Any data?

With my first custom axleback exhaust my 0-60 time went from 6.0s to 5.7s (consistent) 5.5s (on occasion). This was with just an exhaust change, no other mods. Others who have aftermarket axlebacks can confirm a subtle gain in power.

Head to page two to see my results
