Boy, that's a tough question. You can see my list of mods in my signature and every one was worth the money.

I have to say the exhaust...3" Pypes X pipe with a 3" pipe deleting the resonators out through GT500 axle backs. Sweet sound, not too loud but just right! A close second would be the Redline MTL in the tranny...now saving for the MGW shifter...

Hearing that makes me even more excited to get my newly ordered Koni Yellows on my car.


Right now I'd say its the X-pipe and Axle backs. Now the car has a sound to back up the looks.

I agree with you on that. The car sounds so ummmmp, just can't describe it.

1: Shocks and springs. I could not stand the oem jacked up look.

2: Full exhaust. The coyote is the best sounding V8 next to the M3 4.0 V8

3: Boss Splitter and Roush Grill. Gives the stang that aggressive look it needs.

MGW shifter, totally transforms the vehicle.
I imagine I'll be saying the same about the Koni yellows when I get them

Roush mufflers. Every time I start the car, every time I roll with the windows down(or up for that matter!), every time I get on the gas, every time I accelerate. Love them!

+1 to you guys on this. The side exits are auditory perfection.

Favorite mod so far is my new BBR hood and paint job. I'm sure the impending supercharger will take over the #1 spot if it ever happens

Another+1 here for FRPP sport axelbacks and Boss Quad exhaust. Perfected sound in my opinion. Oh no restrictor plates on the quad exhaust.....that's a no no.

You got that right.
Actually, I may have been following your advice on that to begin with...but I have the restrictor plates in a box in the garage...and that's where they'll stay. It's not offensively loud with the restrictor plates out...they must have been meant to meet some regulation for the production Boss cars.
