You can't just mash suspension kits together and expect them to work. Doing so was unfortunatly the cause of all of the worst handling cars I've ever had the displeasure of driving fast.
Why don't you mention what you're putting together and I can present you with a few options from that point. Mixing parts especially just front or just rear parts of the nonadjustable variety is a recipe for a visit to a body shop.
How did the dual exhaust go?

Tip of the Month, October: Do not buy the $730 Roush Exhaust which a Mangnaflow rep says costs to $117 make (polished, all ss), buy the $170 Roush Exhaust Tips estimated to cost $46 to make and weld them to another company's muffler. This also lets you choose how your car sounds.

Still saving for the duals. But I am gonna go with those mufflers you suggested. The suspension kit is essentially the FRPP kit without the front sway bar.
Apparently both the Shelby and the FRPP front sway bars are 35mm. What else should I be looking for?

The FRPP kit is a rebranded Eibach kit. Just purchase a Eibach front sway bar and your kit will be complete. If you can't find the front bar by itself, then just sell the rear sway bar and purchase the entire Eibach front/rear sway bar kit.

Thanks. I was actually thinking about that on the way home from my trip today (about FRPP being a rebranded Eibach), haha. Another question, what would be a fair price to sell my stock suspension at? I would have no use for it and have no room in my garage. It has under 14k miles on it.
Unfortunately, stock GT suspension parts aren't really worth that much- maybe a $200 for a low mileage set. Unless, you were lucky to get Bullitt springs.
I went ahead and ordered to kit last night. I can't really afford to buy it, then again, I can't afford NOT to buy it either. I'm getting the front struts, rear shocks, rear sway bar, and performance springs for the price of the struts and shocks alone.
