Thumbs up Looking to improve my Mustang

Hello forum,
I'm new to the site, but not new to Mustangs. I bought a 2000 Ford Mustang Coupe last October after saving up $1700 around this time last year. Importantly, I named my car Demonika since she is a woman and a future speed demon (hence her name).

Anyways, I am interested in having my car not only as a daily car, but also a racing and show car in the future. I do have a list of aftermarket parts that I plan on installing into my car.

for the time being, what are some ways to improve and increase my car horsepower? I know from looking on American Muscle website, I can install power coil pack to increase its watts and such.

the 2k stangs are tough to add hp to and when you do it costs to much to do it. Thats my 2cents. When I was rebuilding my 2k gt I looked at all sorts of mods and ended up putting it back together pretty much bone stock because the mods were to expensive for the few hp I would have gotton out of it.

I was thinking of doing the same thing. I want the Boss 302 from a 1960s-1970s mustangs to put into my car, but I found most are over $5,000 or if they are under $1,000, like on eBay, the sellers 9 out of 10 times are selling them for people to only pick it up and not ship which I do understand because those things are huge.
