Gears (4.10's or 4.30's), Exhaust (cat-back, X/H pipe), Pulleys. That should get you started. If you have a 5-speed, don't forget to get an aftermarket shifter like a pro 5.0 or tri-ax.

What else should I put? Like what kind of exhaust? What else can be done to the engine?

Bassani X-pipe with Cats, Flowmaster 3-chamber mufflers w/ stainless tips. This is the hot setup for your Stang. Enjoy. A set of .430 gears will pep it up too.

If you go with chambered mufflers, get a H-pipe instead of an X-pipe. X-pipes generally work better with a straight-through designed muffler.

3.73s, Flowmaster american thunder Cat-back, pulleys, cold air. If you really want some power go with a Paxton Novi 2000RR Blower. I have seen these put 140+ rwhp for only $3650. That's a deal if u got the $$$!
