Definately start with gears...You might even want to go as low as 4:10's. this will give you the biggest performance improvement for the money, plus it will lay the foundation for all of your future mods... Once, you have the gears you need to think about a plan of action depending on your goals. If you like making you stang sound bada$$, then go for the exhaust side first (headers, x/h-pipe, catback), then follow up with the intake side (MAF, tb, coldair, etc..). This should get you to around 250-260 bhp. If you want a little more consider pulleys and a chip, and maybe some fuel system upgrades. But if you still want a lot more, you can start with the FMS Heads/Intake switch. If that's not enough, there's always a blower or N20. Whatever you decide to do make sure that you have the proper fuel delivery for your particular application. Do it once do it right...
