Default ENGINE MODS ON 04 MUSTANG GT?

Hey everyone, I have a question i have made some mods to my 04 mustang gt, i have a 75mm tb and upper plenium and intake, i have 3.73 gears how much will the gears help? My next question is what should be my next mod i heard if you upgrade your tb and intake you should upgrade your fuel too is this true, like injectors,fuel pressure regualtor and fuel pump? What should i do next, also i do have a bassani x pipe.


thanks

the gears will help, do you have them installed yet? if not i would seriously recomend returning them and getting 4.10s as they will help alot more, you could uprade the fuel system and i would also recomed some kind of tuner

Your fuel system doesn't need any changes. It won't unless you move to a power-adder.

You'll definitely notice your gears.

You don't have many bolt-ons left... UDPs (don't bother if you plan on supercharging it). LT headers... Or you could go to nitrous, too. I have found the bolt-on route to be pointless because the gains are too poor for the money. Nitrous is the best HP/$, followed up by a blower. Something to consider, too.

upgrade the fuel system and it will pave the way for more power adders, do you want to stay NA or go forced introduction?

If he's not going to get nitrous or a blower, his stock fuel system will be more than enough. So why spend the money if he's not going to need it. It's like buying a forged 281 short block if all you're going to do is simple bolt-ons.
