RE: Newbie Here
Welcome to the forum!!!
Manual tranny all the way!!!! I too have the C&L/SCT Tuner on my list and hope to be ordering in the next week (my xmas present to myself!!). Im like you, not dumping a ton of money so I will be finished when I add the C&L/SCT/LT Headers. Already have the wheels/tires, axle-back exhaust and lowering springs. Anything else will be just because I can
Good luck with your future stang, you will get a lot of great information from these forum members, they are awesome!!!

RE: Newbie Here
Welcome, and good job picking intake and tune as the first mod. The C&L and SCT combo from Brenspeed is very nice, and the JLT is another big intake. The only differences really are the materials used to make them, the C&L is an all aluminum tube (they also have a plastic version for "Race" applications), and the JLT is plastic. Other mods Id consider for performance would be gears, cmcv delete, alum 1 pc driveshaft, and a few suspension mods to keep your feet on the ground.
Manual or Auto is a big debate and it really depends on what you want. It doesnt sound like you want it to be a track car, but if it was going to be then Id suggest auto. This auto is GREATLY improved from the last model Mustangs and is amazing once tuned with stiffer shift points. I have an auto and love this thing.. but then again mine will eventually be a track car. However if you already know how to drive stick and youre just looking for a fun car with good power, Id go manual. Theyre more fun to drive, more control ect..
BTW, "ttt" is To The Top... its used to bump threads up on the list.
