There's nothing wrong with wanting your shit to look good, bro. The mustang is already powerful enough - we all know it. I guess it just depends on what you can live with immediately.

It's gonna suck having to wait to lower my car, get the aesthetics I want installed (CDC Agg chin spoiler, Roush rear louvers, etc), but I can pop that stuff on one paycheck at a time.

The supercharger is going to make me happiest knowing that every ricer thinks I'm a stock mustang until...rev, rev...and then I'm gone! Leaving him to think about how pretty his wheels and wing are... That's what I want more than anything right now.

I want a supercharger really bad, but my only delima is that i never race anyone and i never go to the track. I just really want the power! With rims and body stuff(along with 4:10's, alum. ds, short throw shifter) I will love the way my car looks and will get more complements from other people.

Make sure they have the problem worked out with the hurst first. Recall comeing.

Lower it and get the rims, you will be happy. It makes the car look awesome. Then get 4.10s you will love those.

I whole-heartedly agree It's all about the power. I've never even raced anyone yet, either...except for this Tiburon. But I don't think he counts.

The more I think about it the more it makes sense to just skip the SC for now and go with the stuff that will show off the car more immediately. Wheels really would look good.

I'm gettin tired of hammering my car all by my lonesome...

Everyone wants more power...even if they don't really need it. I did a big chunk of go-fast mods when I first got my stang, think imma do some cosmetic stuff next with some suspension. Then once I got a good platform to work with imma bolt on some power, probably a whipple or KB.

I was looking at the saleen and am kinda impressed at it the more i study stuff about it, but it is kinda pricy. The best deal i've found for it is $4,300. I can get the supercharger i really want (which is the paxton) for $4,500. I decided that if i could find a deal on a supercharger that i want for $4,000, i will buy... but if not i'm getting rims, 4:10s, lowering kit, alum. ds, and short throw shifter.

You think you can get me that good of a deal mickey?

The only thing that i have decided for sure is american racing rims. That is going to be around $1,500. What else should i do? I was thinking BMR lowering kit, spyder shaft, 4:10's, hurst short throw shifter(don't want mgw so don't suggest). As far as body goes, i was thinking xenon ducktail, side scoops and window scoops along with a cdc front grille. What do you guys think?
Modds are in sig. If i could find a supercharger for the right price, i would get it.
You could get one, if you skipped the rims->Vortech Engineering: 2005-2006 Mustang GT 4.6L 3V V-2 SQ S-Trim Standard System

I mean I don't see too many people running vortechs here on s197s, but the option exists to get a supercharger for the money you have at your disposal.

I don't like them because they take away power in the lower part of the powerband(or the opposite) They don't really add power, the just move it around.

I just found an awesome deal on some rims! There is a guy here locally that contacted me. He is selling his chrome 20x9 shelby razors with nitto nt555's on them for $1,000! He has only put about 1,000 miles on them, and is selling them because they are too heavy. He said he wants to go with 18's instead.

If i can't find a deal on a supercharger for $4,000(best i've found so far is a saleen for $4,300) I will be getting:

bmr lowering kit
4:10's
spydershaft
hurst short throw
cervini elanor window scoops, side scoops, and ducktail wing
cdc black grille without fog lights and pony emblem on the right

thats all that is for sure right now. Stuff that i'm also considering is:

Roush front fascia
window tint
Black racing stripes, and rocker panel stripes that say FORDRACING
new 12'' subs and amp and a custom box to fit my trunk.
