You'll probably get a little bit more feedback if you take this thread over to the V6 forum, they'll know a lot more about performance for sixers and what not than the 4.6 guys

This is V8 country man. You're in the wrong forum. But if it were me, i'd sell it ASAP and buy a 99-04 GT, or an earlier model cobra.

+1. The 96-98 Cobra should actually be in your price range :-p

Appearence-
shorty antenna(get rid of the mast)
Rims
tint
Bullit fuel door(I have one and love the look)
fog lights
grille delete


Performance-
If you are into that and are going to lean towards performance, you will want a V8. If you want to keep the six,
8.8" rearend w/ gears (No more one tire frier)
spray
stroker kit(no replacement for displacement

The V6 guys should be able to help you out more but I also think that you can swap intakes and heads on other Ford V6s to get performance.
