New Mustang owner needs input

[J.M]

I just purchased a 2000 V6. A few weeks after I had it I removed the intake silencer and installed a K&N filter. I notice a little more pep around corners and on the low end torque.

Now, about shifting: most of the power that you'll find will be located between 3000 and 5000 rpm. You might be shifting to early if you feel lack of power in your shifts. The 3.8 stock engine contains 190hp @ 5000 rpm, therefore, you'll notice that after 3000 speed will increase a lot faster.

So far I have not witnessed any shifting problems, or noises. You should get it serviced if the problem persists. If you are getting crappy service by sales people, talk to the main man of the location you are taking your vehicle.
