congratulations on a nice ride

I am going to move this over to the S197 Performance Handling section, as the pepes over there are more familiar with your model. Keep the following in mind whenever upgrading performance mods on your car.

What are the ULTIMATE goals for your ride?

This is the #1 question to answer and should make sure that ALL of your proposed mods are in line to meet this end I would like to say two things though. The first is being that you already purchased these items, what if me or someone else was to say the "ride will be harsh and not meet your ULTIMATE goals", whatever they happen to be. The second is how these mods may effect any warranty you may have. Be sure to consider this, as some of these mods might come into play during a possible warranty issue. I would think you would be fine, but manufacturers can be picky sometimes.

My ULTIMATE goals for my ride is have over all ride for to handle anything I want do with it street or track. I dont want car just made for drags.

The #1 answer to question is that I did already order all items but need not going work or better things out there, I can always upgrade down the road or sale them.

The #2 answer to question is that to late worry about that warranty now plus runs out in March, not to far off anyway

Personally I would not have gotten a Steeda driveshaft, much better companies out there IMO... Looks like you have a good kit so far though, nothing too crazy. Thought about a strut tower bar? I'm no suspension expert, but a tubalur k-member wouldn't be too bad of an idea.

I have a ford strut tower bar on it now. I am thinking about ordering steeda street upper arm to finish mmy package up.

Your list looks complete. Usually these kits come with new fasteners, but if not, you may need to order them from Ford. I would caution you on your ride quality, as the Steeda comp springs tend to be stiffer than the Steeda sport linears, especially with the Steeda front struts. I purchased the Steeds sport springs and koni yellows from Sam Strano, who is a great resource. Jazzer is correct, first establish your goals, then fit the parts to meet that goal. Sometimes this means Steeda parts across the board, and other times it does not. You have not listed your wheel and tire package nor your brakes. These are also important and have a greater effect than most of the parts you listed. If this is a daily driver with some auto-X or track time, you might be disappointed about ride quality. I originally installed the FRPP handling package, but the ride was too stiff due to soft rear springs and stiff front springs. However, depending on your handling preferences, you may be satisfied with a stiff ride.

My wheel and tire package is:

(F)19x9 Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca Wheel & 255/40/19 Nitto Invo's
(R)19X10 Mustang Boss 302Laguna Seca wheel & 285/35/19 Nitto Invo's

That's definitely a great upgrade list, though I may be partial.

We carry quite a few different parts and each part really has purposes that it is ideally suited for. Let me know what it is that you do with the car and I would be glad to compare it to what you have on this list.

I can also setup a package deal for you since you have such a large list and can probably get you some sort of discount on all of that.

I already have parts on hand, But I do need Steeda Street Upper Arm & mount if you have one laying around....

Sending you a PM.
