Default Good upgrades to do?

Looks like I will be getting a 2000 Mustang GT at the end of this week or next. I need to know what is some good things to add to the vehicle. I'm not worried about gas mileage, that doesn't bother me I have another car if I need to sqeek by on gas mileage.

Anyways a little bit about the car. It has gears already, has a catback exhaustk, gears in the back but not sure what they are. Speedo is about 10-15mph off.

Any help would be appreciated!

No. You'll get about 10-15hp most out of those. But they are good starting mods.
