I just got my first stang a 90GT and was wondering what are some good first mods I was thinkin a new fuel pump and some headers followed by a X pipe and then maybe gears, well what are some good aftermarket fuel pumps nothing crazy just a stock replacment or something a little better cause mine is kinda whining.

5spd or auto? For fuel pumps, just get a 190lph walbro pump for like $90. For headers, BBK LT's would be best followed by a 2.5" H pipe and your choice of cat back. Do you like it loud, or somewhat loud or quiet? 373's are a good choice and if your car is 5spd, look into a pro-5.0 shifter. Since you just got the car, my advice to poeple who ask questions like this all the time is first and foremost do a FULL tune up: plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, pvc, pcv breather screen, air filter/remove the silencer, advance timing to 14-15*, change oil/filter, change trans fluid. This should take care of stage 1....
