It all depends on what you want to spend. There's a ton of things out there for show, you'll have to decide what YOU like. As for the go, gears, true duel exhaust, tuner, and/or cold air intake are pretty good. But heck, then again, if you are willing to spend the money, go forced induction.

What is your budget? I recommend picking up a CAI from AM for $70, and getting gears, LSD and tuner for your car to get it moving off the line. Also a dual exhaust is nice to give your car a little more growl

Yeah I'm only 16 but will spend some money and my dad will pay for most of the stuff aswell. I already have a dual exhaust but I'm unhappy with it and want to change it because I want a more deeper tone not raspy. I'm going to get a CAI for sure and I'm going with a black n white theme with my car. It's a white convertable! I already have rims! Gianni Blitz 20"! Can you guys recommend a good exhaust no matter the price but I want the deep growl kinda like a V8!

Edit: its Automatic aswell

Also I'm going to smoke my head and tail lights and going to get sequential lights. I'm really not gonna go into boosting the HP yet, I wanna just get a CAI, dual exhaust, smoked lights, HIDs, sequential lights, already got rims, tint windows, subz and ampz. Thats about it, I guess for now!

Your not going to get a deep sound like a V8 will but all is not lost. Try getting a o/r h pipe with good chambered mufflers, like flowmasters. Searching youtube for the sound you desire is a great start, Good luck

It's hard to go wrong with flowmasters.

Can you guys help me out with what CAI to get and how much do you think it would cost for the exhaust setup in the video I posted.

also I want to have a loud, deep growl. I'm not sure how I am going to get that but in my current setup my dad took out the (reso) what is that? Apparently it makes your exhaust louder?

If you just go to a good exhaust shop, they can fab you up a h pipe, put flows on it, and stainless steel tips for around $350. That's what I did. It's pretty loud, but not so loud it's obnoxious. The site said he had longtube headers, which will make it cost a good bit more, but at the same time make it a bit louder.

Well, you could always get the flows and wait until later to get the long tubes if it's not loud enough for you. You could take the cats off or put high flow cats on too (but that might make it a bit raspy). CAI should help a bit as well. Anyways, I've never heard that the long tubes make the stangs feel slower, but then again, I'm not an expert. That might make a good topic for a new thread.

The only way you are gonna get that sound is to do exactly what that dude did. I find it hard to believe someone could feel their car being slower with longtubes. THe butt dyno is very inaccurate.
