Fixed that! Even on a boosted engine the spacer is nothing but a paperweight. Doesn't do a thing on today's cars - this isn't a carburetor set up.

The only thing a throttle body spacer will do is lighten your wallet, but not enough to make a difference in performance.

TBs and TBSs are wastes of money. Get an 8.8 rearend out of a GT with 4.10s, get a CAI and tune from American Muscle or Brenspeed, get underdrive pullies if anyone is still selling them for the V6, and get dual exhaust. That will probably be about the extent of mods to the engine you will be making without a supercharger. Do buy new wheels and tires, tires are one of the most important parts of a car. Don't forget about handling though. The feel of the car is almost as important as how it actually drives, so get aftermarket shocks/struts like Konis, and you won't want the crappy stock springs so check out Steeda lowering springs. Matte black stripes look great on your color car so think about maybe getting 2 10" matte black stripes, and think about getting a different front bumper. I don't like the looks of the GT/CS one with your color, so maybe just a GT bumper with a chin spoiler. You will need a new grille then, so check out the Bullit or Rousch 9 bar grilles. Both look great with just about any bumper. Remember, you have a very cool car, don't be afraid to show it off. Clean it often and be thorough, with enough care and some mods you could be winning shows in no time. Good luck and welcome!

Boosted is for tuner cars it's all about the roots

Well. Alot of great ideas here.
It all depends on what you're gonna do with the car. The best way to improve power is obviously a supercharger or turbo. If that was the way you are going to do, skip the CAI for now and get the tune. If not, the CAI will be way to go. After that, gears, exhaust, suspension are great to upgrade too.

I'm too lazy to google atm haha, but did they even make CS in that color?

MustangFirstCar

No they didn't, or atleast, I've never seen it. Was his color offered through 09? I have a feeling his color was discontinued in 06 or 07 before the CS came out.

No one mentioned my favorite mod. Once you do a CAI/tune and maybe the 8.8, an aluminium drive shaft is a must.
