Sell the stang and put that mustang down for a 02 WS6. J/K lol

Personally i would take that money and beef up your rear end. I would get a 31 spline in there. A lot of the guys on this site just focus on there motor and forget about there rear end. If you don't want to do that then just drop the car. Your handing and 60 ft will inprove at the track.

The control arms and subframes would really stiffen up your car. If you want some power, get cams.

Well, if you are having traction problems then some new control arms would help.

Subframes "can be" a cheap mod. It definetly tightens your car up, but if it just a daily driver you might not really notice much.

Cams would definetly make a power difference (10-15hp), but $800 is not enough for both cams and p&p. I think you would get more out of cams then a p&p job.

How about longtubes? The will give you a solid power increase of about 10 hp.

If you do the work youself, a set of cams and longtubes would really boost the power of your car for $800.

I personally think a stiffer clutch will do wonders. It won't add any power but it'll help you get the power you have to the ground, like my SPEC stage 2 clutch is doing.
