Well I don't have the car yet. I'm getting it when I get back home from Basic Training. But I've already made a list of what I want to do and get. I'll show you what I've got so far and tell me if there's anything else you suggest I get with the list so that I don't screw my engine or anything up.
Here's the list:
Exhaust: MAC Long Tube headers, MAC Off-Road Pro Chamber Mid-Pipe
Engine: (1) SR Performance CAI & 75mm Throttle Body w/ Intake Plenum
(2) Trick Flow 390/375 Top End Engine Kit w/ 38cc Heads 2V
(3) Comp Cams Stage 4 Xtreme Energy XE27AH Camshafts (w/ 4.10mm Gears, Beehive Springs, Valve Spring Retainers)
(4) Vortech Supercharger 2V, V-3 Si-Trim Satin
(5) Spec Stage 2 Clutch (including Spec Flywheel, SR Performance Clutch Adjuster Kit)
Will this setup work fine? Also, I'm looking for a 2004 Mustang GT for sale too. Stock, preferably because I want this setup on the one I get. Also, I'd like to find somebody that has one for sale who will hold it for me until I get back from Basic Training. I am leaving in August if they have a spot open and will be back sometime in January.

On another note, I just purchased a v3 vortech kit for my 98gt with an 02PI engine. How many guys were able to use the factory maf for lets say 8lbs of boost? I already have a walbro 255 and 42lb injectors.

Couple questions:
Do you have the stock motor (bottom end-rods pistons etc.,)?
If so the 3.60 will do you fine. Vortechs have different pulleys sizes (3.60, 3.48, 3.33, 3.125, 2.87). If you still have the stock bottom end then I would suggest going with the 3.60 pulley or maybe even a 3.48. Anything smaller and you'll be running to much boost which would cost your motor to make to much HP which in turn can and will blow your engine. With a 3.60 pulley should be right at 380 or so to the wheels. A 3.48 pulley close to or a little over 400 anything smaller than that you're running a risk of blowing your engine.
You can run 42 lb injectors but you'll be like me and want to make more HP and will have to sell those and buy some more. I'll cut you a deal on the injectors (55 lb) and pulley. Let me know...
Also I am here to help you as much as I can. What all parts do you have so far?

would it work as well for a procharger? Got a nice deal on a head unit and I can find the bracket for it what I’m worried about is piping for it. It’s gonna be for a a cobra. However if not I know they carry a nice centi as well just as good just prefer procharger since their head units are self contained so no draining into oil pan.
