I have a 1998 mustang GT and my goal for this car is to get into the 12s. the car is a 5spd. So far ive ran a 14.4 and the only mods i have is a bassani x-pipe with no cats, and a flowmaster cat-back. I currently have my car in the shop getting a ford racing trak lok differential and 4.10 gears put in. My goal is to try and keep the car N/A but willing to go as high as a 75 shot of nitrous.
Any ideas on what mods i should get?

PI swap will get you some hp with not going na, will bump your compression up too.
Nitrous likes compression

PI heads and intake upgrade.

heads and cams, headers...forge your bottom end so you can handle higher rpms and nitrous. i would advise a bigger shot of nitrous. and one good suspension and slicks

thanks everyone for the ideas. i know by next month ill have a cold air intake, SCT xcalibrator 2 programmer, and under drive pullies.
and if i do a set of shorty headers will i have to raise the motor out a little bit to get em in?

Don't waste the $$ or effort on shorties.

yea, true.. if i do long tubes ill just cut the pipes for my x-pipe shorter and weld it all up.

They make short mid pipes for long tubes.

thats more money spent though. im tryin to keep cost down as much as possible cause im getting 94-95 gt in about 2 months.

100 Shot of nitrous or more. Just go for it.
