Default Best aftermarket parts for my car....

Hello everyone. My name is daniel and i just recently purchased a 2004 Mustang GT, its all stock with 58,000 miles on it. I was wondering what would be the best aftermarket parts/brands to use for my car. I'm very perticular when it comes to things that i purchase and i do not wish to buy junk. Im still a noob here so dont hate on me to bad..lol... Im still kinda on a limited budget at the moment but im looking at bolt on stuff first i guess.. lol any help would be amazing. thanks in advance guys.

I'd do 4.10's and full exhaust and Short throw shifter first. so that way the car is somewhat built up before you slap a supercharger on there..JMO tho

oh yea and Lower it...that shoulda been my first mod after the 4.10's.


edit: just saw the post above mine...then start with stuff like a throttle body& plenum..cold air's are worthless..just get a k&n filter and remove the snorkel.. under drive pullys ( ONLY steeda or march) short throw shifter ( mgw..pro 5.0 or steeda) Headers ( Mac is cheaper and good quality and pypes are cheap and have a 50/50 chance of good quality..super good is american racing but they aint cheap) mid pipes usually have to corrospond with the brand of headers ( shorty mid pipe if you get longtubes) and get your choice of catbacks...all in the sound there...get those done then we'll talk about cams/heads or nitrous or superchargers..or turbos..

I like the way this guy thinks. The only thing is i think that 4.10's are a little high for me. 3.73?... what short shifter would u use?... what about traction bars?.. programer?.. plenum? throttle body? headers?... JLT CAI?... what would u guys suggest?
