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
