Default suspension/engine ideas

So i recently bought a 2003 mustang gt, torch red, 5 speed, h pipe, CAI, to spacer. My main goal for this car is a 350_375 whp back road corner carver. What would be some good things to look into, to meet my goals, I am on a budget as my insurance is retarded haha. So higher priced items will take a few months to save for but not completely out of the question. However, I'm looking for the most cost effective and reliable set up thanks in advance

Tires & Suspension!

Wider wheels, wider grippier tires, and UPR Products suspension will make that Mustang corner faster. And if you're on a budget, you can just upgrade one part at a time. UPR Products are Made in America, they carry a Lifetime Guarantee, and we offer forum members a discount on our parts.

agree with above. if you want to carve corners, there is no better $ than on tires. get some 140-200 TWR summer performance tires like hankook RS3, toyo R1R, kumho ecsta XS, etc. run em on your stockers if you have too, but if you can get a wider footprint wheel to stretch them on, even better. also, going bigger adds weight, so dont go with the bigger diameter fad.
