2010 Mustang GT/V6 Performance Parts

2010 Mustang GT & V6 Aftermarket parts FAQ

The 2010 Mustangs are a bit of a red-headed step child of the late-model Mustang world. they came with the sleek, face-lifted S197 body of the 2011 to 2012 Mustangs, but had the older Mustang engines, the 4.6L V8 and 4.0L V6. They're not bad cars, by any means. It's just that having a body style that fits one half of your website and a powertrain that fits the other tends to make things interesting and leave folks with a lot of questions. Lucky for you, we here at Stage 3 Motorsports are here to assist you and get you the answers you're looking for.

What do I have exactly?

If you're in the right place, then you have either a 2010 Mustang GT equipped with a 3V 4.6L Modular V8 or a 2010 Mustang V6 with a 4.0L V6 engine.

What are the best upgrades for my Mustang?

2010 Mustang Cold air intake and tuner packages like Airaid's intake and tuner combos for both the 4.6L GT and 4.0L V6., without question. These kits give your Mustang's motor a big kick in the pants and get you a bunch of extra horsepower and torque with minimal effort and a hassle-fee installation.

How do Mustang cold air intakes and tuner work?

2010 Ford mustang Cold air intakes provide your stang with a larger volume of cooler charge air. Mustang tuners alter key parameters of your Mustang's Powertrain Control Module (PCM) such as fuel curves, timing, and etc. to get you some more horsepower and torque. When you combine a Mustang cold air intake and handheld tuner, you can get more power than using one or the other separately.

I just want my Mustang to sound awesome. What should I get?

If you just want a good sound, then our 2010 Mustang GT axle-back exhaust kits are definitely for you. Axle-back exhausts are easy, simple, and get you the sound you want in no time.

Power is great, but now what?

If you don't want to become one with your natural surroundings (i.e. throw your Pony into a ditch or tree), then we suggest stocking up on suspension and 2010 Mustang brake upgrades while you can. Mustang upper and lower control arms are pretty much a "must" once you go beyond stock power levels and will help you maintain traction and avoid potentially dangerous wheel hop.

Will any of this stuff void my factory warranty?

All warranty decisions are at the discretion of your dealership. In general, a dealership can refuse to warranty any repair that it thinks was caused by a given performance part. If you are worried about your warranty, then your best bet is to talk to your service advisor and see what they're okay with before you go all hog-wild. Any type of PCM tuning, however, will instantly void your manufacturer warranty.
