Default Hi NFG

Hey,
My name is Rob from Mill Valley, ca. I just picked up a 06 GT mustang. Engine is stock 55k miles. Has all new Ford Racing 1" lowering springs and struts all around and 18x9 fronts 18x10 rims with 275's out back. A Ford racing cat back system. I am a mopar guy and have a 69 Dodge Dart GTS 340 4 speed that I am restoring. I have built several of these cars. I built a 68 dart convertible and swapped a 440 500 hp motor into it.

I got the Mustang for a good handling reliable car to daily drive. I have never owned a Mustang before and to tell you the truth got it b/c I couldn't afford the Challenger. Don't hate me. The truth is I am very happy with this car it handles great and I am now hooked on learning and building this car up with reasonable upgrades like bigger sway bars and maybe a tune and CAI. Maybe down the line a supercharger. I have to say coming from the mopar scene you guys have it made with so much aftermarket support and cheap good parts available. Let me know what I should do to enhance my GT.
THanks,
Rob
