Ok heres a list of my next mods in order (after I buy a new tire since I got a flat )

1. Mach1 Grill Delete

2. Mach1 Chin Spoiler

3. MGW Shifter (or what other brand do you recommend)

4. Chrome Rolled Tips & Cobra Center Caps

5. Accufab TB & Plenum

Hopefully I will get all this done before the HUGE Mustang Meet (200+ Stangs) at GALPIN FORD here in Southern California...

What do you guys think?

Grill delete and chin spoiler FTW! If you have a 99 or 00 get the 01+ headlights too. Those 3 simple mods really changed the front end of my car. It'd be a toss up between those and the shifter though. I had my car for 2 years before I finally put my tri-ax in. If I knew what I was missing, I would have done it much sooner. I never felt an MGW, but I can guarantee the majority will tell you go with MGW everyone seems to love that damn thing.

I have cobra rims and someone stole my two front center caps so i need to get new ones...

I already have my car lowered....and Ive seen an article on another mustang site where they compare TB Brands and Accufab netted the most HP/TQ Gains compared to other brands (they dynoed everything...)

whats a firewall adjuster?

The Accufab setup is not a waste of money, despite what Kilgore might be saying. (Tell him blowers are overrated - LOL, just kiddin Kil)
Seriously, I got a substantial gain when I added mine - at 3K+ RPMs, it just finds new pulling power and goes.
The only thing I'd scrap on your list is exhaust tips. Wait and get a catback...which will come with tips. (Hint - get the SLP LM2 for the best sound and best tips!)

I am just saying TB and plenum, especially accufab, is really expensive. Do not get me wrong the accufab stuff is freaking beautiful. I would agree a TB and plenum is going to give you some hp gains. But it can also give you idle, throttle cable, and idle drop issues.

But I think the overall driving experience of the car would be much better enhanced by a nice set of bilsteins instead of the accufab stuff...

On a 2000 GT your shocks and struts are gone man. A new set will totally renew your Mustang's feel.

this may shock some of you,.. but I actually agree with Killy for once

the TB and Plenum isnt gonna do alot on a car without other supporting mods, and for the money it just isn't very cost efficient.

the things he listed are the way to go.. get the grill delete and chin spoiler(even though I usually dont spend money on my car unless it increases 1/4 mile traps )

MGW, I like my tri-ax but others love the MGW so thats a personal preference thing

and Shocks and struts are a MUST!

for the money Strange makes an excellent shock/strut that will perform great street or strip because of the adjusments.
