Before you start doing Horsepower and Torque modifications, go head and do yourself and everyone around you a favor, and get some good brakes and suspension, along w/ tires... This is just the car's important stuff..


As stated, and I'll keep beating the dead horse.. LEARN TO DRIVE YOUR CAR RIGHT!!!! To many idiots on the roads who've been driving for 20, 30 years STILL don't know how to do it right, so be in the minority..

Pay attention behind the wheel, and don't try to personally out-perform your car's ability.. That's the worst part... That's where the MOST POWER comes from...

I think learning to drive is the most important thing. Im 15 and I have a stickshift 03 gt. It's pretty crazy. Just respect the car and get the feel for it. Also, dont get pissed off at it being stickshift, it'll all come in time. I got pretty aggravated at it. As for your question, do headers, mid pipe, and you already got the catback so...Finish that up then get some nice wheels and tires, drop it, chin spoiler, grill delete and you'll have yourself a very very nice car my friend. the chin spoiler and drop, granted it's nothing abnormal like more than 2 inches, you'll be fine with bumps and pulling into places.

You COULD do the roush suspension upgrade, but all you really need are some lowering springs right now. They well run you about $230, some brands are cheaper and others are alittle more expensive.

Like said you only need the springs.
I've been driving (in town) since I was 14. I got a '66 Mustang which was never completed so I just got a 00 Gt and I just turned 17. I've pushed it, just like anyone, but so far I haven't been too stupid. You just have to learn from experience. Even if it's not alot of power, if you hit it and you're not hanging on, these cars will own you.
