What's on your mod list?
I just finished adding stuff to the Excel spreadsheet that I have to keep track of my mod list for the Mustang. I do this with all my cars so that I have a good grasp of what I want to do, the parts I want to buy, and ultimately how much it's going to cut into my penny collection. This one is rather alarming but over the course of the next 8 years or so I should have one heck of a ride to drive around.

I have a similar list - are you an engineer by chance? The excel tracking works out great and gives a nice overview if you ever want to sell the car too. Inhave added in maintenance items so they are also tracked.
Quite a solid list you have tho, that will make for a fantastic mustang!! I have a few of he same items on my all up list!

I do the same thing but for a different reason. I suffer from a bad case of for a few dollars more. I'll decide what I'm doing and spend double once I start shopping. I started making lists if parts, model, and brands. I don't allow myself to change anything once I finalize. It helps me keep to a total budget. As you may guess, I've had several projects go insane.

The list on that page doesn't show the stuff I installed and subsequently removed.

On the "wish list" are, slotted/drilled rotors or total brake upgrade. Nothing wrong with the Brembos at all. They work plenty fine. Just looking for a little more "bite and bling". Something like the Baers or Wilwoods.
Those Velgen wheels really have my eye as well. I would love a set in gloss black to compliment the RS3 and Roushcharged logos inside the matte black stripes on my car.
Then,..........onto the engine and so forth and forth. Like I said,....it's a "wish list" for now.

Nice spreadsheet. I love making those. Here's what I just did last week - but my total mod list is about 50+ long.
- 2.66 short ratio Tremec Magnum XL transmission
- BMR lightweight, 1/2" lowered k-Member
- JPC billet motor mounts for BMR k-member
- MM camber plates over my 18000-C dampers and GT500 strut mounts
- Toyo RS1 competition slicks, square. 285/680/18
- Remove front strut brace
- This and that

Yes it does. I didn't even put the magnum Tremec on there or a brake upgrade for the rear from Steeda and different pads for the front. That's about another 7 K added to the 18 that's already there. Good thing my other woman hasn't seen how much I plan on spending on this one. Nothing a trip to Thailand can't cure though.

Time to add to the list. I forgot about the front adjustable sway, the BOSS rear diffuser (wrapped in real carbon fiber), and the rear seat bar with 4 or 5 point belts.

Where did you get the transmission from? I'm in Germany so they would have to ship it via the regular Post Office to my APO here.
