OMG, j00 got teh MAD sp3lling skillz, bOUYYYY!!! RoFL

The intake is a good start, and the mufflers will be good for little more than better sound. Your next mods should be gears and underdrive pulleys. Your total HP gain will only be about 20 HP, but the gears will help you "squeel off the line".
 
Intake, exhaust (true dual gives more torque), SCT XCal2 ($399) or Livewire ($599) whichever you want, Underdrive Pulleys ($130), if it is an automatic 4.10 gears ($150) plus T-Lok (about $200) then get it installed (price can vary for the shops, don't cut corners on this cost, it's TOO important), if it is a manual get a short shifter and 3.73 gears. The gears will be THE fastest upgrade you could do besides built engine and power-adders.

Instead of using your existing Y-Pipe, convert to a true dual exhaust for a performance boost and if you want more than just improved sound. This can be done by having a muffler shop cut your stock midpipe (Y connection) behind your cats and either welding in a true dual exhaust adapter or having them fabricate a divorced dual exhaust midpipe. This will allow you to use any aftermarket catback made to fit a GT in your year model.

Changing rear gears in a V6 runs about $500 - $550 installed. This includes the gears themselves, a limited-slip differential, and installation.
 
The Y-pipe exhaust will only improve the sound of the car, nothing else. Why not just go with a GT H-pipe and GT take offs cat back?

A CAI and exhaust wont give you a whole lot, 5-10hp the most. With pullies you wont make more hp either, you just free up what's there to begin with.
 
cut your y pipe and weld the 5.0 system onto it. Instead of the deltas, get the flowmaster super 40's. From there, get UD pulleys, 4.10 gears, tlok, full bolt on's ( except the TB. its pointless to get a bid throttle body unless you got a ported to match upper intake). If you really want to get into it, go to www.supersixmotorsports.com and get the stage 2+ powerpak and forged internals. From there you want to get a Procharger intercooled blower. If you dont want to do that, go to http://www.precisionengine.com/rebuilt-engines/ford-crate-engines/index.html and get the 4.2 stroker. get the livewire or Xcal 2 and a nice tune. That should do you pretty good for now.
