Any Suggestions? Next step up?

Ok as of right now i have a 2001 V6 3.8L convertible mustang with a few mods consisting of a K&N CAI, 18" Bullit rims and peralli(200mph) tires, GT Front bumper, Flowmaster Dual exhaust system and well my stereo system at which im selling to reduce some weight. Other then that i dont know where else to go really, Here are a few things ive been thinking about but not sure so i decided to ask the people that would be able to give me better advice then just w.e. i find out on the net.

*Underdrive pulleys
*New Higher grade injectors
*Tuner(any idea's on good brands?)
*Body kit
*3.73 or 4.10 gears
*New Headers, Not that theres anything really wrong with the ones i got...
*New bigger throttlebody, bracket
*Rear seat delete kit
*Rear seat cover thing
*Spoiler ( any ideas on brands or kinds?)
*Coil pack ( any ideas?? screamin demon is all i know of.)

And well if you got any other ideas let me know id be glad to hear them.

As of right now i have about 141.00 and well ive still got who knows how much more put back for this car, but right now i want something for about that much just for starters, Plus im selling my stereo system or well the subs,box, and amp if anyone is interested im askin around 450.00 for it all but im willing to negoiate some on it.

im just looking for ideas and prices on things whether they are used or new doesnt matter but i just want the most and best i can get for my money.

Thanks,
Crazy_whitmore

I can't find something on that range except the cai but you already have one I suggest to buy something for looks or save a little bit more to install something else like 3.73 gears if you have a std or 4.10 for auto. Oh you can buy a short throw shifter I think you can afford it.

Mine is a V6 auto... I dislike the auto part but i just found a 2000 v6 mustang manual tranny for about 350 so that might be a new addition possibly.

If i have a auto then i couldnt exactly have a short throw shifter could i and what does it do anyways??

No selling in the Forum, if you have something to sell, use the classifieds. Thanks.

If you have an auto won't work, the short shifter is for manuals it makes the changes shorter like when you shift from 1st to 2nd it will be way shorter with the shifter...
