MP5 baby :)

[zander76]

Hello Everybody

I would like to say I love the MP5s, and I am finishing buying one tonight, can't wait.. Today is draging along.
I have started looking into modifications, but I am only new to cars, anybody got any good links to get me started or information. I really don't know anything yet, so any help will be great..

Thanks, Ben
ps, I am really glad that everybody here seems really nice.

hey there. Sir_Nuke will be along to welcome you shortly, I'm sure. In the meantime, let me say hi and welcome as a newly-registered member.
As far as performance, just asking "what to do" begs about 500 more questions, the 2 biggies being "how much you got, boy" and "do you like having a warranty?" There's an entire section on performance, and an authorized vendor page where you can buy from people we know and trust.
You can do anything here from add a cold air intake, to slap on a 3500 turbo and NoS and eat your tires. There are innumerable combinations for power, performance, and looks here, literally hundreds of options. My advice is
(1) Look around the entire site, hitting as many threads as possible (click "view new posts" on the main page), especially the protege5 and performance section.
(2) to find out how your car works, go to
the how stuff works webpage and type in anything about your car you wish.
If you have auto, try "automatic transmission," manual try "manual". Learn about how an engine works, the flow of air and fuel through it. See how a turbo works, and how cold air in the engine adds horsepower.

And feel free to ask anyone questions, including myself. There's a handy PM feature if you need it, hit me or anyone else any time or find me on the site. There are some guys here with an amazing wealth of knowledge.
Take a few days to review all the posts, then ask some more specific questions.
And again, welcome!
