Default 2002 V6 Vert question

A friend of mine just picked up her first Stang, it is a 2002 V6 Vert. I know very little regarding this car. Could someone let me know (so I can pass the info on to her) what size the engine is, the stock horsepower, and whether it has an overhead cam (either single or dual). What are some bolt-ons to increase the horsepower (like CAI, exhaust, tuner, etc).

It's a 3.8L ohv pushrod engine (the last pushrod in the stable, I think) stock hp is either 193 or 196 hp.

Most effective boltons are Rear Sway Bar (not so much for power, but control) Underdrive pulleys, DeMolet or K&N CAI, there's all kinds of exhaust, and any Ford tuner will work. There are also long tube headers from MAC available, but Shorty headers won't gain you much without a power adder. Comp Cams has 4 cams available.

If you go with a power adder, there are SC, N2O, and turbos available, there are larger MAFs, Throttle Bodies, and port and polish services for the heads and intake manifolds.
