Hey, I'm new here. I found a business card on my 2008 Mustang GT and I thought I'd look you guys up. I am looking to mod my ride, but I'm not into drag racing. I'd like to test my skills as a driver and not so much as a tuner because I don't know much about engine tech. Are there any good road courses around Eastern North Carolina?
Also, where's the best place to get waranty-friendly mods done? I want to first upgrade my suspension/k-member and wheels/tires, then headers/exhaust, intake/whipple twin screw super charger, and then work on the little stuff like a better clutch, cage and seats. This will probably take me a few years to do, finacially, wich will also negate the need to have waranty-friendly work done later on. So that's my 5-year, $10,000+/- desposible income plan in a nutshell. |

welcome!
if you dont want to void your waranty i would take your car to the dealership BUT be prepared to pay crazy amounts of money for install.

| Welcome..If you want warranty friendly work done you will have to stay with the ford racing parts brand as far as performance upgrades. I can sell these parts to you but they have to be installed by the dealer to retain factory warranty. Most dealerships will not even touch k-members and things of that nature. But bolt on stuff and even the whipple they will do but like someone said before it will probably be pricey. |
