SCT2, JLT intake, Ford Racing Strut tower brace, Bassani X-pipe w/highflow cats + FFRP(Borla) Axlebacks, (soon to be installed: 4.10s, lower control arms, panhard bar) Vs. Tint + Steeda Springs(these could be on the "go" side though)
Hmm... I'd say GO! I did order new rims, though.

I'm all show, I'll let Ford let me GOOOOOO. I might do some go things later, but I just wanted the car to look good to me. Really, after I got the car it looked great as is!!!! I'm really up in the air about stripes now, I'll wait until I get the interior done (hopfully by Monday) to see how the stripes will look.................

I went in this order...
Shortened antenna (free)
DiabloSport Predator (300)
4:10 gear swap (450)
Window tint (150)
Plenum cover (100)
Cut rear springs (free)
Remove HC trap (free)
Radar detector (350, definite "GO" mod
)
Rims and tires (1800)
Jet TB spacer (100)
Hurst shifter (should be here next week) (220)
Wow, never added that up before, I just spent over $3K in mods. Well I'm up to $29K total into this car, that's less than some people had to pay from a dealership. (I can find the silver lining in every cloud) Excuse me if I neglect to tell my wife how much all the mods have added up to so far.

I'm all show for now. Read my mods below...I love having my stang stand out from the few GT's in my neighborhood.
So basically, I AM all show...however, (and this is for all of us) our cars have more than enough go for daily driving. I'm so happy with my performace, even though I get a little slower than stock GTs. I may consider a tune down the road, and obviously my exhaust system will be going on soon, but that's it for go. I go good.

The car already goes. I havent really modded it, just rims/tires and loud mouths but if I buy anything else it will be a tune/intake and quarter window luvers, maybe gears, so guess I'm a bit of both but voted show.

I little go, a little show, a little more go, and then a little more show, and on and on and on. I getting to be a modifying junkie I'm even thinking about modding some of the first mods. :bang: I blame you guys for this, because you keep raising the bar with your cars.

Did you get the loudmouth exhaust?If so could you tell me how you like them?
show first(ALL i could afford right now)!It was tint,but that is almost a necessity where I live.

For those of you who are wondering why I'm putting the Loudmouths on if I am selling my car... I had already promised a member here my Magnaflows before Katrina hit and before I knew I'd be selling the car. And, maybe I want to hear them on my car (and drive it around a little
) with them on. That's why!

definitly more go than show....I can prove it by the number of trophies I have won- 0. I'm starting on show after I get my headers, xpipe, and dynotune.
I did tint, exhaust, tune, intake, LCA's, hood lifts, tail light covers, wheels/tires, and springs.

I will be all show at first:
Lowered, wheels, tint.
Then I will be all go:
CAI, tune, exhaust, etc.
I'm coming from driving Jeeps in one form or another for the last 7 years. So 300hp will be plenty for a while. Then i'll up the hp.

The Loudmouths are on their way. Should be here next week. So, can't tell you how they sound yet. I know they LOOK really good, and have heard from members on here who have them that the sound is awesome... so we'll see.
