I'm so any flips that though he's pizza boy USA What is it you guys welcome back to another one if you were new to the channel I own gold pony right now. There is a stay at home order for the state of Pennsylvania Thanks to the governor so I am staying at home behind me is staying a source It's been a while since it is staying a source video So that's what we will be doing today today will be the top five essential Mods for your Ford Mustang and really this is any Ford Mustang this could be Fox body new edge S197 S550 like this or whatever and also before we get started I did want to mention all of these parts that I'm going to list in this video are all available on CJ pony parts Dotcom if you wanted to save some money while you're there go ahead and type in the code CJ social six 4 6% off when you get to the check out screen to hopefully that'll save you guys some money there too It's hope up before we get started when I say essential. I mean top five Essential Mustang mods meaning they should have come with the Mustang from the factory in my opinion But good news is they're all relatively inexpensive on this list So you still should be able to relatively get them pretty easily if you wanted to so what do you guys say? Let's just go ahead and start with number one on the list So there's your answer for number one right there you guys being hood struts And so you guys probably already know factory Mustang comes with a prop rod So therefore you have this little rod that comes up right here and goes into that hole right there Of course it's been disconnected because I put hood struts on stangosaurus here and that is a much better situation Especially if you're gonna be doing some work under the hood having said that the odd thing is the only hood struts You can really get are on the Shelby GT500 and even the new Camaro's actually come with hood struts instead of the prop rods I'm not sure why Ford hasn't gone with hood struts yet for the Mustang But nonetheless as far as what I would recommend when it comes to hood struts is there's two particular brands I would go with Ford performance is actually what I am using right now and stangosaurus is where you guys are looking at But so video also makes some really good ones as well I've heard a lot of my friends get them and they hold up just as well as Ford performance of course generally These are gonna range you anywhere from the ballpark of $70 to $100. There's other relatively inexpensive there They are super easy to install as well I've actually made an installation video on my channel if you're for to scroll all the way to the bottom of the main page You'll see the stangosaurus videos will be able to find it there if you're interested But overall that is my first essential mod that the Ford Mustang definitely should have come standard with and it is available For literally every single Mustang whether you have an eco booster GT or an older Mustang whatever the case They are available on CJA penny parts.com and now let's go ahead and make our way to number two in the list Why we have our hood open here It's a number two on my list. Let me zoom in here for you guys That is a JLT oil separator also referred to as a catch can and so essentially with that is it's gonna be a huge Benefit for really any direct injected engines Essentially prevent oil and other contaminants from causing buildup inside your engines intake manifold without this particular mod You're essentially going to experience more quickly loss of power things like rough idling increased fuel consumption Stuff like that basically so if you can prevent that where she probably should try to so These are typically priced from 150 to $200 dependent upon the year of course And I know I've shown you guys this before but let me show you that this particular device actually works here Let's go ahead and unscrew it and we'll see what it's actually captured inside of there So next particular modification on one the highlight for you guys really should have cove standard on the Mustang GT at least that minimum is a resonator delete or some kind of exhaust that was a little more pronounced than the stock Exhaust system that the Mustang does come with so stock exhaust it actually sounds pretty good But mustangs come with a ton of power from the factory 460 horsepower So why not have your car sound as fast as it actually is and so there's a couple different options here There's an X pipe and an H pipe that X pipe is gonna give you more of a classic Mustang Rasp and actually had an X pipe originally installed by Muggets Auto Body in Maryland So if you guys were in the Maryland area feel free to hit up Muggets Auto Body there And they'll be able to install that for you But the other option is an H pipe which is kind of what I got set up now And the difference there is that the H pipe is gonna give you less rasp and more of a deeper exhaust note But either way either set it that you go with they're gonna range roughly from a hundred dollars to four hundred dollars Really depending on the brand and the year so it's funny even the brand if you look in an X-Piper and H pipe They're gonna range from literally a hundred dollars to four hundred dollars Whether you go with a standard CJA pony parts set up or you can go with Borla or Corissa But they are going to range in price quite substantially believe it or not So I didn't want to mention that but then the last option you can go ahead and go with is a full cat-back exhaust system Of course that is gonna be substantially more expensive ranging from a thousand to two thousand dollars again Depending upon the year and that is actually what I have on Stangosaurus now the difference there is it is gonna be a much Latter exhaust note that just your standard resonator delete But again, it's gonna be more expensive for reference. I have an AWE touring cat-back exhaust system on Stangosaurus right now It goes for sixteen hundred forty five dollars in case anybody was interested once again available on CJA Pony parts dot com but since I mentioned it Let me go ahead and do a quick little exhaust clip for you guys just so you know with AWE touring cat-back exhaust system Actually sounds like and then we'll move on to number four on the list So All right, and see number four my list is going to be the emblems and so case you guys don't already know the Ford Mustang comes with chrome emblems chrome pony logo up front you got either the chrome pony logo in the back or GT lettering and then you have the five O lettering if you go with the V8 on the front fenders But as I said it is finished in chrome and there really is no other chrome on the Mustang unless you go with the pony package Of course and then it kind of works But if not then I feel like it's kind of gonna look a lot better if you go with some gloss black emblems or map black Emblems but they're available of course because everything else on the Mustang is black so why not tied all together right This is a relatively inexpensive modification again and kind of I feel like it should have come standard and actually the Mustang does offer a Black accent package from the factory that gives you this But the way I'm telling you right now through cj penny parts gonna be a heck of a lot less expensive if you go this route But nonetheless pony emblem GT emblem and two five oh emblems all come in a package deal where you can buy them separately But the package deal is gonna run you roughly a hundred to two hundred dollars depending on the year of your Mustang And it definitely looks a heck of a lot better than the chrome emblems unless again I went with the pony package which would have given me chrome windows surrounds It's some other chrome trim and then it would have made sense But other than that definitely love the look that I have here and these are gloss black emblems because there are map black Available as well. I wouldn't have mentioned that too Now let me go ahead and touch on my last essential modification I would recommend for any Ford Mustang owner being the tires And so this is really only essential if you don't get a performance pack one or performance pack level two Mustang because if you didn't get one of those two therefore you have all season tires actually and when you have 460 horsepower 420 pound feet of torque if you pair that up with all season tires You're gonna get a heck of a lot of spinning and that really does not allow you to fully utilize the power that you have under the hood So really what's the point of a Mustang then? So what I would recommend if you don't go with one of those performance packs is go ahead and add some summer tires to whatever Wheel set up that you currently have it's a pricing for a new set of summer tires is actually going to range depending Of course upon your wheel size and they do differ drastically the wheel sizes from the factory So they're gonna range from $550 for a set of four to around $1,200 again depending upon the wheel size Actually, I have nitto NT555 G2 tires. I definitely have liked them so far I got Ripley 8,000 miles and Sting is so or so far and they've held up perfectly fine for me They actually have probably the longest tread life of any summer tire Remember seeing that when I was looking at a consumer reports magazine last it has a 65,000 mile tread life Which is insane the most compared to any other summer tire out there Not going to be quite as grippy as some of the other tires for instance like Michelin Pilot Sport 4s Is there something like that but still tread life of 65,000 miles is definitely pretty ridiculous I love that But so anyways that pretty much rounds out my top five essential mods video for the Mustang Hope you guys enjoyed it.
