Great information

Those mods sound like experience talking. However, what about a NOS installation? Why was that not added to the list? Is it because of reliability? I've read that a 50-75 hp bottle (wet) doesn't require additional tuning. Is this true?

I'm in the military and currently in Germany. I have a stock 07 GT, Torch Red and would like to get the suspension/handling down to an art so I can smoke some of these German Bimmers and Porsches.

Welcome to the forums.
no a 75 shot would not require a tune and nitrous is very safe if used correctly.

Welcome to MM.

I didn't add nitrous to the list because I wanted to keep it to just bolt ons.

This is a great kit.

Another big thing is to upgrade the brakes. You don't have to spend a huge amount of money on new calipers and everything. Upgrading the brake lines, pads, and rotors will make a big difference.

The StopTech Stage 2 kit on the bottom right is awesome.

2005 2006 2007 MUSTANG GT PERFORMANCE STOPTECH BRAKES

You will need aftermarket wheels to clear those brakes though. This will let you run wider, stickier tires than stock. The Steeda wheels at the link below are excellent wheels.

That's why we're here. And the only dumb question is the one that isn't asked

Can highly recommend the C&L Racer CAI and Tuner package from Brenspeed! Holy Crap that thing is HUGE! (That's what she said!)

The install was flawless since I paid someone to put it on. I'm sure I could have handled it but I have more money than I do patience. I've heard from folks on here though that it's an easy install - about 30 minutes and about 3 tools.

You'll love it!!!
