Default performance upgrade

im new in the car game and was wondering if anyone could give me some tips on what brand clutch to purchase. i put a new exhasust system on my 2000 3.8 stang and my clutch feels like its worn down. probably from shifting so rough. any tips on what brand i should look into. and im also wondering if anyone knows about that SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT. my friend told me it might be the O2 sensors. whats up with that. and last but not least what cold air intake should i look into getting thats not too pricy. Someone help me!!!

Take your car to AutoZone. They will hook a code scanner up tp your car free and get the codes. Then tell us what the codes are from there
