Okay, I got some replies today.
JBA apparently has already released their exhaust: http://www.seanhylandmotorsport.com...da62e5dcade62c3
--SCT Flash -- currently available if your local dealer has one in stock.
--Magnaflow Cat-back/Axle-back Exhaust
Random Technology High-Flow Cats: "We are planning to do converters for the '05 Mustang-- it's just a matter of getting a car so we can see what we need to do."
Crower: "We will have cams and valve train for the 3 valve engines in about 2 months."
Cobra Misano Seat Bracket: "It is already available.
To order the bracket with your seat purchase, contact us ( Sube Sports ) the exclusive importer of Cobra seats for North America."
Fluidyne Radiator: "We have not yet begun development of the 2005 Mustang radiator. I am sure we will develop one, but honestly, I would say it would probably be in the Spring of next year at the earliest. It is not on our development schedule at the present time."
Cervini's Eleanor Body Kit: "Hello. The Kit should be available sometime next spring. We don’t have much information on it as of right now but please check back with us early next year."
Baer Big-Brake Kit: "We will have systems available for that hopefully by September, please stay posted to the Baer website."
Air Ride Suspension: "Nothing scheduled yet but I am sure we will look at it this winter. Please check back."
Trick Flow: "We are not doing anything for the 2005 Mustang, Sorry...."
Koni: "The 2005 Mustang is currently on the R&D list. You can keep checking back through next year and we can give you updates as to where it is in the process. It could be up to a year from now before we will see anything for it."
Unorthodox Racing: "We have no current plans but we are in the process of developing a damper program that would allow us to make product for Domestic V8 engines. Stay tuned to our web-site for updates of the coming year."
K&N: "Thank you for your interest in K&N products. You have registered to receive notification about products for your vehicle. This email was sent automatically to inform you of available products that might fit this application. Listed below are the current K&N products for a 2005 FORD MUSTANG GT 4.6L." -- they list an oil filter. I did the questionaire on their website that you fill out for new product suggestions.
Stoptech Big-Brake Kit: "It's already out! We had two cars with our kit on them at SEMA last week, one of which won an award from Ford!
http://www.world-challenge.com/news/04press168.html
Let me know if you need one and we'll get one going for you."
Wilwood Big-Brake Kit: "I think very soon, I have seen prototype already."
Turbonetics: "Yes, we will start prototype work in a month or so, we have completed the earlier mod motor kit (Twin turbo) and is in tooling phase now. the 05' we are waiting on a vehicle."
JE: "We have already made some pistons for one. But your question is a little vague. Are you looking for more compression, or larger bore? Please write me back with more info."
Darton: "We do intend on making a MID kit for that block. We do have one for the older 4.6L Cobra but we are not sure if anything has changed in the new blocks. Also the kit did not work with the 2 valve GT head unless you modify the head in the oil hole to resemble the 4 valve head. So until we see the new set up we are not sure if our current kit will work.
Let me know if you have any questions.
John"
Tein: "That kit is currently in development and unfortunately has no confirmed release date or MSRP as of yet. Development is time consuming and extensive as each vehicle and kit goes through multiple road tests to determine the best performance and comfort. Please occasionally check back on our website in the near future for the most up to date information. Thank you for your interest in TEIN High Performance Suspension Products."
Edelbrock: "Sorry nothing yet for your car.
Please send any replies to gsuyenaga@edelbrock.com
Include THE ORIGINAL copy of this entire e-mail with your reply in order to help you more thoroughly.
Thank you.

JBA: "We will have long tube headers available around 11/22. The shorty, direct bolt in headers are slated for availability around the 2nd week of December. Our performance exhaust is currently available and ready to ship. For additional information, please call us at 800-830-3377. Thank you for checking with us."
and another JBA employee personal message'd me on stangnet.com: "My name is Mark and I work at JBA. If I can help you with something or answer any questions for you - let me know. Just so you know it has been 120mph at JBA for the last 6 weeks with SEMA and PRI. Let me know if I can help.

Car Excess VDC Vertical Door Kit: "The VDC kit is engineered using a gas shock to balance the weight.
Opening, lifting, and lowering the door requires no more effort than
standard door operation. VDC kits are designed to match performance with
functionality. We match the gas shock with the car model and type. Custom
kits differ from specific application design kits in that they are not
pre-drilled, or tapped. The custom kit is modified by transferring the
existing hinge bolt pattern to the new hinge. Many late model domestic car
hinges are now welded and glued and the custom kit is the only appropriate
application. I haven't seen the new Mustang firsthand. Customers and custom
shops have successfully applied the custom kit to a wide variety of vehicles
without complication. The 05 Mustang is eligible for the custom install
kit.at 1525.00. We ship within 24 hrs of order placement and shipping is
included within the domestic US. Please contact us direct for additional
inquiry and order information at www.carexcess.com The 05' VDC kit design
Bolt-On kit is not currently in design. The 94'-04' Mustang bolt-On kit
will be released in the first quarter of next year. To view completed car
conversions , please click on the application guide and gallery on the left
side of the home page under the VDC menu. Vehicles listed have been
successfully converted by either a bolt on or custom kit. There are lower
quality units on the market but none offering a higher standard of
excellence. As always, if you have additional questions write or call.
Please see our order policies and payment options at the bottom of the
Carexcess.com site. We export worldwide.

Borla catback...any info on whether thats a straight catback, stinger set? and if they will do just axle backs in either normal or Stype Mufflers?
the 800+ price probably suggest thats a full catback with tips and regular mufflers (Stingers are cheaper usually)
And I would assume that an axleback would be even cheaper....

Personally I'd like to see both, a catback and axleback of stingers.
I don't really want to change out the whole thing if I don't need to.
Axleback would be plenty good enough, and then I can change them back myself if need be.
