forged smorged.. the stock can take up to 450 HP i dont think many people will pass that.. given they will need not only internenals, a tranny upgrade, new rear end, heads, cams, pistons, intake manifold etc. might as well do a cobra swap

Yea well 450 is still a long way from 600hp. and 450 on the 4.6 is already pushing it. But very tru just swap in a terminator setup and ur good to go.

yep another "useless mod" is the trunk liner. But looks great!
I got it from granddesignmat.comcheck em out they were down for a while because Ford was getting on them for making something with copywrite infringement, but now theyre lisenced thru Ford so supposedly the pony looks better now.

well u gotta remember, all exterior mods are to make it look faster WHILE ITS PARKED or at a red light, so the slomaro doesnt challenge you... you think a camaro will take on a stang with a body kit? pffft

appearance mods...to me at least...are not to make the car look FASTER. unless you consider huge wings because they make your car look like it is flying while standing still?? i do appearance mods to make my car look BETTER to ME and UNIQUE. things like that. and shorty headers aren't usesless if you have a crack in your stock manifolds like i currently do and don't want to put MAC LTs on your car [:'(][:'(][:'(]. i will be just fine with BBK shorties + my BBK high flow cats waiting to go on.

so if i replace my cai with my stock intake and take the old filter out and put in a K&N filter and leave the silencer off it would be the same as havinga CAI.. im about to get some money back then.. lol.
Since you're going the car show route, I would deffinatley leave it. Chrome stuff under the hood FTW.
