Hello I'm new to TMS. I recently bought a 2014 mustang v6 in deep impact blue. I need some advice on what my first mods should be. I am thinking about changing my gears to 3.73 and putting a roush axle back exhaust.

welcome - 3.73's are pretty short gears, what are you looking to do with the car? Street driving, drag racing, road courses, etc?
Personally, I would recommend shocks/struts and stiffer/lower springs as the #1 modification for just about anyone. They transform the car and are noticed every time you turn, brake, or accelerate. Power is fun, but the turns are where the most fun is (for me at least).
And consider the GT500 axle-backs. They are cheap, sound great, and look great. I've had them on my GT for a while and like them. They alternate with muffler deletes depending how obnoxious I'm feeling and what track I head to

But Steeda offers good products and support, and the American Muscle guys on this forum are usually helpful from what I've seen too. Lots of good threads in the suspension forum area too!

I've had good success with my Koni's, and various others have had similar experiences.
