I am sure you know your car would be in F-Stock with SCCA. And according to the "rules" the only modifications you can make are shocks, front sway bar, and cat-back exhaust. Ford Almost cloned the front suspension of your E36/46 BMW on these mustangs, so couple of the same rules can still apply.

Tires will be your best upgrade, depending on what tires you get will depend on pressures. I have never run on Victoracers so I cannot suggest an optimal psi to run but I had a set of Toyo RA-1s that I ran at 34 psi at all four corners. If you don't get adjustable shocks you might play with tire pressures to get a little more balance out of the car.

Brakes for the car are very good, an upgraded pad, maybe like a Hawk HPS or HP+ pad is really all you would need. But I do not rely on late braking when I run, the slow in fast out rule still applies.

You will not need a bigger front sway bar, it is huge already, leave the stock one in there.

The gas can be run down pretty low. I drive to the events but usually I have about 1/4 to 1/2 of tank left and then fill up on my way home. The low gas alert will sound during your runs but you can run it even lower, there wont be any fuel starvation issues.

I haven't done any exhaust work on my car yet, it is getting done as soon as spring starts to get here. I have the FFRP X-Pipe going on with a Dynomax 2.5" stainless kit. From what I have heard the sound seems to be tamed until you get on it, then it gets loud. But sound and noise are all personal opinion, loud to me might not be loud to you.

My last suggestion for you would be to contact Sam Strano, you have mentioned you have seen his posts on this forum. Call him, he has a wealth of knowledge that he is more then will to share. Pretty much 95% of the tips I have gotten for the setup on my car I have gotten from him.

Good Luck!
