I recommend you also replace that fuel pump if it is still original. A failed pump on the side of the road sucks
with 300whp i'd assume he's already upgraded his fuel pump.

Congrats broseph!!! Good Christmas I take it!!!

Now onto the suggestions...

If you're running on the stock pump...you're gonna want to get a new pump in there asap! I thought you at least upgraded to a focus pump when you did h/c/i. You're gonna need one when you go for a retune and that new plenum you want.

And for you I'd suggest something like the tokico d spec or illumina. Any drag specific shock or strut is not ideal for a street car. Adjustable is the way to go. Strange 10 ways were ok but they are racing only. They suck on the street and make loads of noise, which is why I no longer have mine.
