The "eibach suspention" is just lowering springs.. but that's not a bad thing.

the throttle body isn't going to really do anything for you without some kind of power adder, like a blower.

3.73 gears is definitely a good thing.

The tuner isn't going to do you a lot of good now, but having it available to adjust for future mods is a good thing.

Brembo brake kit is very much a good thing. Going fast is good... but being able to stop is even better, when you think about it.

Steeda cold air intake, meh... once again, without a power adder won't be likely to get you anything really.

There really isn't a lot you can do for a mustang to increase power significantly without spending cash on heads/cams or a power adder like n2o or a blower. You could put on under-drive pulleys to free up a few hp and a cat-back exhaust to make it sound nicer and maybe get another couple hp. Other than that, the gears will make it a LOT more fun to drive. Start saving up for a blower!

So I have a question for you:

Since you guys drive on the wrong side of the road over there, is this a left hand, or right hand drive mustang?
