Hello. I just purchased a stock 94 Mustang GT ($2500, clean condition). This will be my secondary car; daily driver is a '10 Suabru WRX, Stage II. I always liked Mustangs and I wanted a drastically different flavor of car than a Japanese turbocharged AWD vehicle.

I got it automatic, as my wife and daughter will be driving it and they don't drive sticks. Not my favorite, but a necessary compromise. I love how it sounds, and I am looking to modify the exhaust to get more of that V8 sound. But coming from the WRX (around 320 crank HP), it feels somewhat slow.

Aside from the exhaust, what could be some good and affordable modifications that could wake it up somewhat without affecting safety or reliability? I appreciate your recommendations. No nitrous or forced induction, please. Thanks!

 

Fav mods on my car (and its a fairly long list) are the suspension mods.

I suggest a set of good springs to start and some steeper gears, with a auto the best bang for the buck is a set of gears, I suggest some 4:10s.

Welcome to the mustang world.
