Default 2002 mustang GT

I reacently bought a 2002 mustang gt w/ the 03 cobra front bumper. I love performance and quick gt`s, but dont really kno what to do to my car first. The only thing that isnt stock on my car is the BBk intake and racing pullys. Would love to get some tips on how to modify my car, and how to do it best.

first things first...get 4.10 rear end gears and a tuner.
then FULL exhaust(long tube headers, midpipe and catback)
short throw shifter
that should take you a couple months

You're going to get a lot of people saying the same thing, so here goes.

Gears, depending on what transmission you are, some people can deal with 4.10s or 4.30s in a manual car, even though the shifting intervals are rediculous
Mid pipe and cat back
Tune.

Those are the basics that'll get you started and get your car woken up a little bit.

Enjoy.

It's all what you want and how much money you have.
I always say exhaust first becasue I love the sound, then after i'll go gears, tuner, etc. . .
