Like the title says, I just bought a 2004 40th Anniversary v6 automatic mustang, and I have no idea what kind of mods and odds and ends I should get. I've heard my friends tell me to get a turbo, or get a supercharger, but I have no idea whatsoever what I'd need to get along with these things. I decided I'd pray to get someone much wiser than myself to lend a hand to a newbie, and give me some ideas as to what I need to get for this car.

Oh, and, as far as I know, everything in this car is stock, except the sound system in it.

What is your budget? Because a good turbo or supercharger system is gonna run in the thousands.

I'd start off with dual exhaust and nicer wheels. Getting a supercharger or turbo is a huge step that will cost big bucks, especially if you have the work done professionally.
How about some pics of your Mustang??

I would definately start out with some new wheels like Red98 said. If you're looking for some relatively cheap mods i'd start with dual exhaust. Underdrive pulleys are a good addition, and maybe a handheld tuner. If you really want forced induction i'd go turbo, but its gonna cost you around 3,500-4,500 depending on where you go and what you get. Plus you'll only be able to run about 6 or 7 psi safely on a stock motor.
