^^ agreed with CAI & tune.

just don't do exhaust. I cringe everytime I hear a V6 Mustang with aftermarket exhaust. [&:] [8D]

what are your goals for the stang? daily driver, show car, track car. its best to have a plan first, otherwise you're just throwing your money in the wind. so do you want more hp, or more appearance, or a combination?

GT Take-Off Muffler. The factory V6 Muffler is quite restrictive.

Nothing wrong with Brenspeed but for the V6 I would likely go with VMP Tuning and their SCT X2 / VMP Half-Intake Combo.
Really nice budget setup. While your on their Site dont forget to checkout their Turbo 3.8L SN95 and Turbo 4.0L S197.
