David first up post 1 of 2

Engine performance-Saleen forged internals Prothanes and injectors
Enigine performance-Vortech (I prefer Saleen or even whipple), GT 500 dual pumps are on my list too, Fluidyne radiator absolutely but I took th cheaper route with the Mishimoto. Besides Mishimoto sold me with their model
Engine bay appearance-I am planning on MAG stuff as soon as I finsh with the go stuff. Hood struts-again I've got other priorities but they are a to do for me. As is the rest of your underhood stuff
Exhaust-I prefer the Kooks or American Racing headers. They are equal lenght and those SLP's don't look equal lenght to me. The rest is just preference but I would stick with the H-pipe but for me I love my Stingers
Brakes-sweet. Bigger brakes is good. Baers seem good to me.
Transmission-Shifter-had the Hurst, the MGW is so much better its not even funny. MGW FTMFW. If you do one thing, listen to me on this item. I just used the old Hurst **** on my MGW. Shaftmaters-I don't think they will sell them for our S197 anymore. I would go Coast here, and eventually I will. The rest=cool
Suspension-Steeda Billet LCA's and Steeda Lower Trailing Arm are a redundancy. Stick with the Billet LCA's. An LCA is a lower traling arm. I see you have the UCA pictures and not listed so I think that is what you meant. I prefer FRPP springs but everyone else seems to like the ultralights you picked. Adj. Panhard bar and camber adjustment plate is a must in my opinion. I don't have the adjuctment plate I've got the adjustable strut mounts. Yours would work better for track days and such. Same with D-specs. I went cheaper with the HP's. But I'm not going to be tracking my Stang. I would suggest LCA relocation brackets. I went with the bolt on BMR's and will upgrade with weld bead on them later. I could really tell the difference with this under accelration.
Interior-hey whatever floats your boat. I like my ultimate pedals though. I don't care for Steeda and Roush stamped on everything inside and outside the car.
Exterior-CS body..F yeah! California Dream hood is cool, but why the Roush scoop. That's a double dip if you ask me. You don't need the scoop. Roush 1/4 louvers. Of all the louvers I don't care for the Roushes. I actually don't like the SHR's either. Mirrors should be Agent 47. These truck mirrors suck in my opinion. You need that old school look. Smoked signals, tinted tails, chrome tail trim, rear blackout, and window tint all sound awesome. I think I would go with black tailight trim though.

Well take it for what its worth. Just thought I'd take the time to give some of my opinion since you took so much time showing yours.

Thanks for the input. I actually like the factory mirrors, especially if I put louvers on...as for the Roush scoop with the CADream hood, that's the one thing that I'm skeptical about, I'll look long and hard before I decide about that. Looks pretty cool in my drawing, but I dont think it will in reality. As for supercharger choice, it's really tempting to get the Saleen Setup...guess I'll have to come to Texas eventually and try it out. I plan on having a 03/04 Cobra as well, so I can trash if I want TS powaaaaa! I dont necessarily want the 07 to be a track car, neither drag or road course...just a kickass ride for the street that's capable of making some quick passes, and winning shows

this is just a prelim list, and will be changed as I build it. One of the things that I've thought about is nixing the stripes, and just painting the greenhouse black, and keeping the lower part vista blue
