Get full exhuast... longtubes, midpipe, and catback
Get intake... JLT raim air (4" tubing FOR THE WIN!) http://jlttruecoldair.com/zencart/in...products_id=57
Also things like a Accufab throttle body and PHP intake spacer will do you good.
A shifter... MGW, Steeda Tri-ax... most LOVE the MGW

Those who own Mach's are very iffy about UDP's, therefore I'm going to spend that $100 or so on something else rather than worrying about the fuel pump getting ****ed... there hasn't been 100% proof but this is one time I will stick to the band wagon and not get UDPs.

Get a dyno tune from a reputable shop near you... that will allow you to get every bit of horsepower out of each mod. You will be seeing over 300rwhp with those.

I've heard that unless you really do some heavy mods on the mach engine that putting in a throttle body is pointless, is this true? Also, what is the JLT ram air intake, does that replace the shaker?

The JLT ram air just replaced the filter and tubing that travels to the throttle body. It still retains the functionality of the shaker. The JLT cold air no longer uses the shaker.

Ok so the ram air still uses the shaker. Got it. What about throttle body? Does that have to be modded if you aren't planning any serious engine mods, or is the stock TB good enough.

and the ram air gives more power than the intake?

The Cold air might make a difference of a few HP but I don't think it would be much of a difference. I just like the idea of a functional shaker.
