Default Upgrade advice

Hey, just joined. I bought a 2010 Mustang GT, 3.73, manual, Black with 19" bright polished black wheel. I am seeking advice on exhaust upgrades, short throw shifter, and suspension.

I am considering a full Pypes system, Roush short throw, and Eibach pro kit springs. These are at AmericanMuscle.com for a good price. Is there a better place to buy? The rep also told me that there are coupon code for 5-10% out there. Can someone please PM that to me?

Thanks, glad to be a new member here!

-Lance

How does the Magnaflow sound on the 2010? I know the stock exhaust is louder then other years, just wondering if the Magnaflow made much of a difference?

Thanks boomee!

I am looking at a Pypes x-pipe without cats. I believe this may cause a check engine error. Doe anyone know about mods to fix that? I am also looking at a ford racing x-pipe. I believe it goes behind the cats.
