The T-45 came stock in Mustangs that year, this would fit and be fine at 350HP/TQ. The T-56 is in 03-04 Cobras, it's a six speed, and bullet proof. Tremec makes both of these transmissions as well as the TR3650 in the mid 01-04 GTs.
If i wanted to get around 325 to 350HP/TQ should I seek bolt-on mods (e.g. Superchip, K&N MAF, Borla Exhuast, Cold air) for that type of performance or engine work (e.g. cam swaps, Super Charger, Heads)? Also, would this have an impact on if I should go with a T-45 or T-56?


Is this on a 99-04 GT? If so I doubt you'd ever get that naturally aspirated. Of course you could do that, but it would be expensive. Very expensive. It's probably possible, but I've never seen it. If you just add bolt ons and then spray youd hit the mark easily. For the price of getting 350 hp NA you could get it supercharged. Go with that.
