Question by dirtrider1219: How can i increase horsepower in my 1987 mustang gt?
I have a 1987 mustang gt and i like it alot but i want to make it faster. My parents dont want it being loud so that cuts an exhaust system out of the question. I was thinking easy mods, no motor internals or anything cause i dont have the time any money to pull the engine apart. I was hoping i could get some links to some good websites or any tips or info you have would be great. thanks

Improve your intake and exhaust.

Put in a K and N setup or something similiar.

As for the exhause, usually going 1/2″ over stock size is best; and you don’t have to have a loud muffler just because you put on new piping; the Kand N will be loud enough.

And I’m sure there are TONS of Mustang websites out there. Just do a Google search for Mustang fan sites.
