Funny about Tire Rack...I can laugh now! Good one!
EXHAUST - IMO, if you're going long-tubes, then look around for a complete exhaust system, that way it's tuned to work together for power, noise, fitment and no drone. Look at American Muscle, Late Model Resto, & CJ Pony. But I wouldn't get different exhaust pieces one-at-a-time, because you might run into problems - especially fitment. If you just want better sound, there are many inexpensive axle-backs to choose from (Roush, Ford Racing GT500, Pypes, MagnaFlow, and more).
INTAKE - Many good reads about the Boss intake, but I think you need the Boss strut-tower-brace, too (because the standard GT brace does not fit over the Boss intake), which means more $. Again, try to do all intake at one time, with systems tuned to work together. If you go one-piece-at-a-time, you might run into problems. So you can go CAI, intake, and tune, all at once.
Oh..and watch for what may (or may not) void the powertrain warranty - if that's important to you.
Just my two cents.

I agree, sir. Folks just love to ask me about it at car shows when I pop the hood. Great looking engine bay, IMO.
