Default What mods to get?

Hey guys after this summer I should have about $2000 to $3500 from my summer job. I have been looking at mods all week. I know headers and an xpipe is a no brainer for me. As well as gears and a tuner. My question is what other mods should I get. I was looking at underdrive pulleys, throttle ody, intake manifold, msd coils, automatic valve body, automatic sift kit, I mean what should I get? Also what about cam's? Ps I have a 2003 mustang gt and current mods are cai, exhaust, and new airflow sensor.

This sounds a little familiar: https://mustangforums.com/forum/4-6l...good-mods.html

"Hey guys I have a 2003 mustang gt automatic. This summer I will be getting a summer job working 30-40 hours a week. Proberly getting $3000 for the summer. I was looking at getting some mods for the stang. I currently have a borla exhaust, cai, and a maf air flow sensor. I was looking at getting new gears, driveshaft, shift kit, automatic valve body, throttle body and plenum, motor mounts, underdrive pulleys, oxygen sensor, msd coils, and either headers or intake manifold, and a bama tuner. Are these good mods to get?"

With short term memory loss like yours, don't drive more than one block from home.

Yeah I was wondering why this thread seemed so familiar lol.

Also OP you're wasting your money if you buy a shift kit and a performance valvebody. They do pretty much the same thing, it's just the shift kit is a cheaper route compared to buying an entire valvebody.
