Aftermarket parts for 02' Stang GT
What are some parts I can get for my 02 Ford Mustang GT. I already have exhaust, gears.. apparently everyone says that i already have a CAI that came from the factory and that it'd be a waste to add money to get one. What are some parts that are decently priced that wont break by wallet and that can give me more HP? How much HP and torque would I be running with the flowmaster exhaust system, 3.73 gears and the factory CAI so far? Any thoughts?

Throttle body and plenum. Short shifter. h or x pipe. headers. nitrous. tuner.
IMO though, save your money and supercharge it or turbo it. you can have both on for about $2500 nowadays.
and with your mods maybe 230-238rwhp.

Is that throttle body any good? Is that all I would need is that part from american muscle.. would I need any other parts to add to the throttle body?

If i pick up a tuner X calibrator 3. tune it for 91 or 93 what will that do? I dont know much at all about tuners or the throttle body and plenum. Do i need a tuner if I get a throttle body or can i go without it? If i get a plenum do i have to get a throttle body? What one do i need first?

Tuning it for higher octane fuel will allow for more aggressive timing, and thus a little more power. If the car is an auto it will allow you to firm up the shift points as well. You don't "need" a tuner for the tb/plenum, but it's going to help regardless. Bottom line...you're better off doing the tb/plenum together. If you ever want to add more power beyond the bolt on stuff then things like this will add up.
You might want to take a step back for the moment, and ask yourself what are you trying to achieve, and how much do you want to spend. If you're happy with just bolt on stuff then a hand held tuner will be fine. If you have aspirations of heads, cams, nitrous, supercharger, etc... you would be better off investing in a good custom dyno tune IMO.

I'm only trying to spend a few hundred bucks for now. I'm happy with just bolt on stuff.. Throttle body and plenum. Any good suggestions on a decent TB/plenum without breaking my wallet.

Tune/tuner--it will let you fix the speedometer reading, and with a tune optimised for premium fuel will provide more power gain than will anything more you bolt on¹ without a tune...
