Default What should be next?

Ok, so i am ready to go to my next mods. Here is what I have: 2004 Mustang GT (5spd): MAC Exhaust, pro chamber pipes, BBK Pullies, MAC CAI, Superchip, MGW Short Shifter.

I know I need headers, intake manifold, throttle body (ported and polished of course), ignition, injectors, rear (3.73 - will be S/C after next level of mods), springs, subframe connectors, upper and lower arm controls, and so on. I just don;t know what i should get next... Any ideas or experience that will give you insightful knowledge would be great, thanks in advance guys for all your help...

When you say intake manifold, I assume you mean the upper plenum??? And who are you looking at for a ported and polished throttle body. What type of supercharger are you gonna go with?

Well, I would go in this order:

1) Gears
2) sub-frame connectors (you will not believe the difference these make)
3) tb/plenum
4) Springs/shocks/struts
5) upper and lower control arms
6) S/C with injectors,Maf and anything else you need at that point

Must be (2) posts on this

Well, i am going to do the upper and lower intake manifolds but he upper first. I haven't started research yet on who i am going to go with. The super charger is a vortech.

Nanaki: what kind of subframes do you have and did you notice the difference once they were on?

I installed a set of full-length sub-frames with the cross member and I really noticed a difference in how the car feels. I got mine from Steeda and had a buddy weld them in.
