Default Opinions and help with a build

So I have a 2004 mustang gt and I have a goal to be faster than a stock 5.0 and a daily driver
Mods that are in the car
k&n cone for the air intake
sound resonators are out of the car
flow fx mufflers
I have ordered a ford performance air intake manifold and it will be in, in the next couple of days
the rest is stock
Mods that I have planned out
78mm throttle body (bbk)
340 lph fuel pump (rated for 500hp easy)
Bama hand held tuner
24 pound injectors

Do you think that there’s anything else I need to add since I have planned to put all of the mods in. I’m new to performance I just know little things and was wanting to see if I can get an opinion from someone who probably has more knowledge than me.

Yes you a long way from your goal honestly. You will need a power adder of some sort. 3300 is what u need
what that gets you is a turbo kit that bolts in, new front suspension and a tune. Give or take. Even with all mods thrown on your car bolt ons u might make 380 I reccomend running a on3 turbo kit with a upr k member kit that would get u to the 400 425 range
you will need or reccomend 60lb injectors boost a pump and brisk spark plugs

Default Thank you

Thanks for the advice man and I plan to do more mods than listed I just want to try and fully build the engine and all internals before dropping a turbo in I’m just not fully sure where to start and what things to do first

You don't need to fully build the engine for a turbo. But if ur asking about mods
upgrade manifold and throttle body
Long tubes
Better gears 3.73 or 4.10
better suspension a good raceland kit should work and be adequate.
