best bang for the buck

I have about $1000ish to spend on my car and was wondering, other than my mods I have now, what would be the most beneficial?
Thanks, Nate

I'm more a performance type guy, and I don't really need tires yet, since my stang is an auto it doesn't really spin that bad off the line.

Yeah...I don't see headers listed on your mods. UPD's, TB, or some suspension work could be a viable option.

I would do some suspension upgrades. I would do a tubular K member and coilover kit. Or you could save until you have more money and do a big upgrade later. What are your goals for the car? Drag car, street car, daily driver?

+1 on suspension, you may not spin bad now but if you build the suspension the car could "feel" faster and then when you do add performance you will see its benefits immediately

Cams would be nice. It is around $670 for SHM cams with exchange andyou can use stock valvesprings with their cams.I bought mach 1 cams on ebay for $50 for my exchange so I am going to save about $300.
