Default Mods and higher performance?

I have a 2005 GT 4.6 V8 with mark 3 custom package but otherwise its stock. Just a beginner and have basic knowledge of cars. Anyone tell me where to start on getting more horsepower (like should i start with a super chip) or something like a kenne belle supercharger? Also what kind of exhaust to get to get that mean, rumbling sound...not necessarily loud but just the rumble...Thanks for any info for the beginner.

decide on how much you want to spend .....bottom line. Are you going to race? Do you want supercharger or turbo or NOS, or do you want to be Naturally aspirated. Your mods are depended on many factors. There is a lost you can do with these cars. It depends on what you want. I am staying totatly Naturally aspirated, why? No one else does. Here are my mods. I hope it helps. There are lots of great people and topics that you can find on these forums .

Good luck and have fun

^Yeah, what he said. There's a TON of info in these threads; what's been accomplished, what's failed, good/bad products, reputable dealers, etc...

You asked about exhaust. Have you seen the exhaust thread? https://mustangforums.com/m_3563477/tm.htm

welcome to the forum, a chip (tune)and a supercharger are opposite ends of the spectrum, in terms of price, decide how much you want to spend

Superchargers cost money but will give you the optimum performance. If your poor like mepaying child support and enjoyinga newwifewho doesn't understand why I need to mod the perfect car then maybe you should look at my mod list. No I didn't learn the first time but you can't always get what you want.
