Hey, I’m new to this site. I have a 03 GT with no mods yet.

I plan on getting a magnaflow catback first and a pro 5.0 shifter with triax handle. What do you guys think? Also is a C&L air intake worth it? Any suggestions?

What can I do to gain the most hp without supercharging it or adding nitrous (keeping it legal)?

Thanks for the input.

Congrats on your new stang. Your on the right track with your mods. Just do your homework and then do it again before you make your decisions. Read everything you can get your hands on.

Welcome! Those are good starter mods. Look into longtubes and/or an X pipe. That should really bring your car alive! Also run a search here and you will find TONS of info on mods.

welcome to the site. the pro 5.0 shifter is great, i have one and love it. you should look into getting some 4.10 gears. those won't get you more HP, but they will make the car quicker.

Welcome

I had a Pro 5.0 and it was awesome

As stated...get some Longtubes, Prochamber, and that Magnaflow catback would be good...go with a bigger MAF and TB along with a Plenum...

Good Luck...

The Pro 5.0 shifter is shorter and feels stronger to me...I had both...and Pro 5.0 is the way to go in my opinion
