It might be helpful to get some subframe connectors to stiffen things up a bit. If you're getting gears I would also suggest getting an aftermarket shifter. I personally have the B&M Ripper but there are tons of quality shifters on the market today.

You said you have a chip so you probably have an auto. If you do have a 5 speed you definately won't want new gears without a new shifter.

You can never go wrong with the ol' K&N and removed silencer combo either.

Another thread had mentioned the UPR timing adjuster. I've been away from the scene for a while so I'm not quite familiar with UPR's version but it might be compatible with your MAC Pulleys. The trick, though, is not to load up on all the cheap go fast goodies and save up for some new heads and intake or take the plunge into a supercharger. Our 96's mods paved the way for the more powerful versions in the Stangs today but are very weak and choked off in stock form.

Just my .02
