Hey guys. I bought a 1997 3.8L V6 Mustang just a few days ago. I am here looking for tips and advice on making upgrades to the vehicle. I have basic mechanical skills and can instal most major parts myself. I guess I am just looking for some direction. The 'Stang is stock so I am open for suggestions...

welcome to SN, hope your just looking for a few extra ponies and not something much more than that. Nothing against the 3.8 but there kind of sluggish but got a nice body style for the year you have
