Default My First Mods from American Muscle

I purchased my 99 4.6 Electric Green Mustang in April 2007. I am coming back from Iraq with the Oregon National Guard and decided to treat myself with a few things for my car. So I did some extensive research and finally purchased a few things from American Muscle. Here's what I ordered:

BBK Aluminum Underdrive Pulley Kit
2 NTK O2 sensors
Raxiom Smoked Tail Lights
Black LED Third Brake Light
Accufab 75 mm Throttle Body
Accufab Plenum
JLT CAI
SCT SF3 Tuner

Here's what's next:

Power Seat Track
Hydraulic Trunk Arms
Clutch Kit
Fuel System Change
Short Shifter
Headers
Cams

I'll take pictures of the process, and see what happens. My goal is to have a smooth running mustang with a little more power than what I started with. Maybe I'll do some sort of force induction. But that will be later on.

Thanks American Muscle for hooking me up!

Yes I bought the car with a flowmaster setup. I think its the 40s. Ill look at it once I'm done with my demob.
I already ordered from them. It was about 1400. Very smooth process. I did look at a couple other stores such as rpm but have heard bad things from them. Very excited to start the process!

Very cool! When you say "Hydraulic Trunk Arms" do you mean ones where you push a button and your trunk opens and closes or are you talking about OEM replacement?
And if your car is basically stock why a "fuel System change"?

Thanks for your service! When you placed your order, did you use the military discount code? If not, send me a pm and I'll hook you up. Godspeed, and have a safe journey home.
