Make the most of your mod budget with these inexpensive upgrades.
Upgrading to performance enhancing systems and components can really elevate your ride to the next level, but buying top-of-the-line products to do so can get quite expensive. So, we’re here to tell you how to increase your performance, without breaking the bank and while still investing in the most trusted brands on the market. From performance filters to shifters, this list shows you the best cheap car mods you don’t want to miss.
Clean air simply enhances your engine’s performance and power – that’s why performance filters slide in as a top-choice for cheap car upgrades. Along with preventing harmful contaminants from entering your engine, our performance filters are also infinitely reusable – which guarantees your engine can receive fresh air after a quick rinse every 30,000 miles. So, if you crave a boost in horsepower and torque, improved throttle response and better fuel economy, upgrade to an affordable performance air filter by top brands like K&N, TruXP and aFe.
Another powerful yet affordable upgrade for your ride is adding a performance throttle body spacer. If you’re looking for better throttle response along with improved fuel economy, a performance throttle body spacer can get the job done. With brands like Volant, EconoAid and Spectre you’ll find easy-to-install components and enjoy the perfect punch of power from the right air/fuel ratio all for under $100.
Rumbling and roaring loud for the neighbors to hear, another product that’s a no-brainer mod is a performance muffler. Performance mufflers not only reduce exhaust restriction and maximize unrestricted power, they also give you a jolting performance growl. In addition, an upgraded performance muffler can add style to your ride – with colored mufflers from FlowTech you’re sure to catch even the eyes of the unimpressed. Or, add a high-performance and stainless steel exhaust tip from Go Rhino that’ll last a lifetime. Adding a performance muffler is a cheap car mod you can enjoy for many miles to come.
The quality of your shift knob can elevate your boring daily drive to that true hot-rod feel. Effortlessly turn your mundane morning commute into an exhilarating drive with a new ergonomic-friendly and attractive gear shifter. Slipping from first to third not only gives you a rough ride, but also kills your clutch over time. Avoid this expense by upgrading to a new shifter – you’ll be shifting smoothly in no time. From weighted and carbon fiber shift knobs by Mishimoto to classic or customized shift knobs by ProZ, you have plenty of options at AmericanTrucks to rev up your ride.
Squealing and grinding sounds undoubtedly mean it’s time for an upgrade for your brakes and brake components. From new rotors and brake pads to high-quality brake fluid, there are many affordable options to up your brake game. Investing in a set of EBC brake pads or Centric Premium rotors doesn’t hurt your wallet and can take your brake performance to the next level. So, whether you need an affordable brake mod for towing, or a complete overhaul for street performance, find reasonable options to ensure your ride has the best stopping power.
Whether you’re rock crawling with the guys or driving through rough weather elements with your family, you should ensure your lights shine brightly on any potential hazard. Upgrading to performance headlights is affordable and the easiest way to illuminate the road or trail ahead. Our ProZ 3” CREE LED Light Cube can increase your visibility whether you’re mobbing around the desert, mudding in the backcountry or anything in between. Or if you just want a simple bulb upgrade for your daily commute, check out our ProZ LED bulbs or Sylvania SilverStar zXe bulbs for an inexpensive way to boast brighter light.

So, set your budget worries aside and enjoy affordable modifications that can transcend performance beyond your old limits and expectations.
