RE: a few Qs...
It really depends on how much money you want to spend. I assume that you want to keep it cheap. Check out a Cold air intake with a perfromance tune. You will need to buy a tuner as well. I think Brenspeed.com offers this.

RE: a few Qs...
only free mods is to reduce body weight and take out that air restrictor (but you already have a CAI).
check this link for ideas on mods to do and how much money it will require. also, ask a lot of questions to current members about different brands and results b/c i am sure that b/t all of us, every mod for the new GT's has been purchased. that is one advantage you have that we that got started really early never had.

RE: a few Qs...
As for performance parts, look at some of the ads on this site, or check out Mustang car magazines. They're full of performance ads. The new Stang has a good 8.8 rear, and it's not known as weak. As for the stock shifter, it's feces, so get a Steeda Tri Ax, [expensive but very good] or a Hurst. You didn't mention if you had a performance tune, but either a Predator or SCT will add noticeable ponies. Welcome to our world.
