Default Performace Mod's with the 2005-2008
I just bought my Mustang back in march and I'm trying to figure out where I'm going to get my best power gains for the money. I"ve started with BBK Longtube Headers, and their off-road x-pipe. What are some good mod's out there that are really making a difference?

CAI/Tune. Obligatory.

After that and the LT you already have why not put some fairly cheap but nice suspension mods on there? LCA? Panhard bar? Etc..

The bullitt comes stock with a ford racing performance intake on it. I'm not sure if it does much for the car or not. But a tune was definitely something I had in mind.

C&L Intake or JLT CAI with a Xcal or Predator tuner with custom tunes from Brenspeed, Bamachips, etc are very popular.
