I am thinking about putting some more upgrades on my car. I just can't think of anything at the moment to do. Here is a list of what I have done.
1995 mustang cobra
Eagle 347 stroker kit
Trick flow twisted wedge heads
cam
upper and lower intake
60lb injectors
75 mm throttle body
high flow oil pump
smog pump delete
egr delete
Off road x pipe
BBk long tube headers
SLP loudmouth exhaust
3.73 gear setup
02 mustang leather seats
rear seat delete
Drive shaft loop
Upper and lower rear tubular control arms
steeda triaxis short throw shifter
D-1SC 3 core intercooled procharger setup.

Any ideas would greatly be appreciated.

If your happy with the wayhe current engine combo performs then I would work on getting the suspension how I wanted it. In my case when I get the performance I want out of it then I plan on putting a complete Steeda G-trac suspension under my car. I didn't see anything about an aftermarket driveshaft so maybe you could look into that?

I have thought about lowering it to give it a better stance but I don't know for sure if I can. I have 315/35/17 tires on the back with 17x10.5 inch tires and don't know if it will miss the quarter panels for sure.

If thats what you really wanted and it didn't fit the rear you could look into having minitubs put in the back if you haven't already. Either that or roll the fender lip or something similar.

I would like to put the tubular k memeber and tubular a arms in it to lighten it up as well as a T56 6 speed transmission from a 03-04 cobra. I just don't want to spend an arm and a leg for the parts.

If you still have the stock block, you're probably near its ragged edge with that healthy supercharger setup. I'd suggest saving some coin for a new block when that day comes.

Could get an aluminum radiator with an electric fan if you don't already.

Kind of off topic, but is your car really painted like the one in the picture?

I like the paint job on your car. I was thinking there might be some things in the interior you might want to change? Like some racing seats or maybe sound equipment depending on what your goal for the car is,

I have upgraded the interior quite a bit. It was cloth with no mach 460 sound in it. Now it has leathe and mach 460. I have weld in subframe connectors that I am putting in before the car sees much abuse. I am currently still working on getting it running again for spring. I will put pictures up in a week after I clean the car. It is pretty dusty right now from sitting inside. I will take pictures of everything.

If you don't mind me asking, what exactly do you use this car for?

Nice weather driving and just cruisin around. And of course going to car shows. And showing the ricers WTF is up. every now and then I go to the track with it but I have a feeling after running for the first time this year I wont be let back without a roll cage. Anything below a 11.99 requires a roll cage and I am not putting one in my car.

I'd get going on the suspension, lowering etc. If you have to downsize the tires, do so, it's really not that big of a deal to have tires that are a little more narrow.
If not, get a race block ready and swap all your parts over.

I would start working on the suspension and look at getting some lightweight wheels to try and put more of the current power to the ground.

I have decided to go with the front suspension upgrades so far. I am going to put a tubular K member and tubular A arm. and upgraded front springs. Anyone know anybody with one for sale. The cheaper I can get it the more I can do to my car.
