Hey all, I am 16 and just got my second mustang in jan. Its a 98 GT with a new 4.6 cobra motor (4v) with stage III clutch short throw shifter 4.10 gears. I don't think that I can afford a s/c right yet so what else should i buy? I was thinking a new throttlebody and cold air, and cat back exhaust. I just had to buy new tires for 18's and they wern't cheep for a 16 year old. I do not know anything about cams, besides that they help with power. If you guys could give me some suggestions that would be great. thanks


here is the link to some pics of it

The throttle body and cold air would be good.  I'd do the exhaust system next and that means full length headers, X pipe and then a good cat back of your choice and since it's a 4 cammer, stick with 1 5/8 header tubes, 2 1/2 pipes and then a 3 inch cat back.  Lastly, a timing adjuster.  After all that, start saving your money cause things get more and more expensive.
