Default first few questions..

ok.. have a 2007 mustang GT.. 12000 miles still stock.. been into my bikes (running 8.20's ) but its time to do something with this mustang.. thing is i dont know whats all out there .. so here i am.. time to educate myself ..
gonna start off with a few things and see where it goes.. was looking at a diablo predator flash tuner and exaust for now.. possibly go with short tube headers..dunno.. just wondering what my best options are on these two things.. better flash tuner? which is best as far a exhaust? ect..

You will want a CAI and tuner first before anything else. That alone will net between 15-20HP at the flywheel and about 10 TQ at the flywheel. Gears should be 2nd on your list, followed by headers and exhaust. If you go headers, go Long Tube, Short tubes won't do much on the GT as they are not a huge improvement over OEM.

I heard that changing to a shorty antenna will give you a 15 HP increase!......

+ 1 on the Brenspeed, or Bama chips tune. I prefer the SCT over the Diablo, but they are both good.
