most people start with either the exhaust, or intake and tune.

for quickness a gear swap to 4.10 nothing can beat it. for hp a cai with tune gets u 30hp. a gear swap is faster than just 30 additional hp though.

Getting rid of your V6 signature would be a good start.

What color is your new GT? Are your Bullitts the polished 18's or the silver 17's? Oh, to answer your question, is the X-mas list for others or for you to buy? Off the bat, a CAI w/tune will be the easiest to perform/install as are axle-backs(but they don't do much other than for sound purposes). If you gonna lower talk with CrazyAl, his insight is very, very good. Welcome to '05+ 4.6L forum!
