Post some pics and info about your setup so we can actually help you without guesswork. What are your goals for the car? You can spend 100 bucks or 100,000 bucks, as the Mustang aftermarket can support either. Vague questions get vague responses.

Also, welcome to :SNSign:

umm... exhaust makes you smile, gears are good depending on transmission and drive-train setup, heads, cam and intake are good... subframe connectors are a good start... it all matters what your goals are for the car.


pics now!

What all do you already have done?

Do you have an auto or 5-speed?

For a 5-speed car, the first few mods you should do:
1. Subframe connectors
2. Gears
3. Aftermarket shifter :cough: Pro 5.0 :cough:

For auto:
1. SFC's
2. Gears (preferably 3.73's or lower)
3. Shift Kit

All those mods will give you an ear to ear smile when you take it for the first drive.

After those mods, a good sounding exhaust is a MUST HAVE for any Mustang.

Stangnet search function is the first thing you should do. This question has been asked a million times. I am not telling you this to be rude, but rather so you can see for yourself it will always be opinion as to the order of which, but all will suggest bolt ons, brakes, suspension and gears in no particular order.

Do what pleases you most. Answer one question and you will actually get a good answer and not brainless fodder; Which do you like most? 1/4 mile, corners or road course?

Welcome!
