New GT
Just traded my '02 V-6 (my first 'stang) for an '03 GT. I love it!! I wanna do a little work on it I just don't really know where to start. Just lookin for some input. Short of a blower what is a good way to milk a little more hp outta my car??

Hello and Welcome! Congratulations and post some pictures of your new GT.
If you just want hp, a CAI, Cat-back and tune are a good place to start.
Also . .
gears
shifter
and don't forget chassis improvements (where I might start)
Aluminum driveshaft
etc.

Congrats man! yea post some pics!
Yea what Evil said
Www.americanmuscle.com
THe JLT cold air intake and the sct xcal2. they combined will give you atleast 15-20 hp. And someone told me something about the steeda timeing adjuster give you 10 hp. wich i had never heard of it. and it only costs $50-$80.

Needs to be more Astony
Maybe someone could clarify but does the xcal2 ajust spark timing? if it does then it renders the timing adjuster useless, if not then the timing adjuster is good(but requires preimum fuel to be used) since i have heard 10hp on it as well.

The Steeda timing adjuster physically changes the base timing. The PCM (tuned or stock) doesn't know about this and will continue to do whatever it does "on top of" the altered base timing--thinking it's adjusting the timing around the stock base timing.
