I vote go then more go then even more go
Whats the point of looking fast if your not

I see you have
2006 GT
Saleen S/C, 4.10, 3.4 pulley, 39# injectors, JDM intake, JDM tune
Bassani x-pipe, Bassani mufflers, Autolight HTO spark plugs
MT 295/45/17 DR's (with no wheels), SCT Xcal 2, One lead foot
I don't see any LCA's, UCA, One Piece DS, Gear, (if stick shifter)

remember there is more to go than the heart (engine) you need to get all your power down to the ground and reduce weight
CF hood, trunk lid, fenders, 1/4panels, ect(get one that looks stock and paint it) (thats what I'd do) shave some weight off w/o changing the look

Relocate the battery to the trunk(better weight distro)
larger heat exchanger and IC reservoir

As long as you're having fun behind the wheel, thats all that matters.

I can't see the outside of my car when I am driving it. If I had the money.. I would still probably prefer go over show. I think these cars are beautiful to begin with.. I'd rather start with Go and then add a little Show. I like subtile anyway. A good mod are springs.. you get go and show at the same time!

I'm considering getting ALLGO on my license plate, but I don't think most people will get it. The only show mods I have are my stripes. I guess my lowering springs are show.
