So you want to turn your Yugo into a Viper? Sorry--you need a certified magician. But if you

want to turn your sedate sedan into a mean machine or your used car lot deal into a

powerful, purring set of wheels, you’ve come to the right place. Car Hacks & Mods for

Dummies will get you turbo-charged up about modifying your car and guide you smoothly

through:
Choosing a car to mod
Considering warranties, legal, and safety issues
Hacking the ECU (Engine Control Unit) to adjust performance-enhancing factors like fuel

injection, firing the spark plugs, controlling the cooling fan, and more
Replacing your ECU with a plug and play system such as the APEXi Power FC or the AEM

EMS system
Putting on the brakes (the faster you go, the faster you’ll need to stop)
Setting up your car for better handling and cornering
Written by David Vespremi, automotive expert, frequent guest on national car-related TV

shows, track driving instructor and self-proclaimed modder, Car Hacks & Mods for Dummies

Choosing new wheels, including everything from the basics to dubs and spinners
Putting your car on a diet, because lighter means faster
Basic power bolt-ons and more expensive power adders
Installing roll bars and cages to enhance safety
Adding aero add-ons, including front “chin” spoilers, real spoilers, side skirts, and canards

Using OBD (on-board diagnostics) for troubleshooting
Getting advice from general Internet sites and specific message boards and forums for your

car’s make or model, whether it’s a Chevy pick-up or an Alfa Romeo roadster

for Dummies is just the boost you need.
