Mustang Upgrade Planning

While I did my research for my next car, I visited ALOT of forums. Mostly sites dedicated to one car, such as stangnet.com ect. However 90% of them had a sticky thread that had a breakdown of possible upgrades for the car, possible hp increase, possible et change, cost, and recomendation. Other sites had "How to reach ### whp" threads where they would list mods to get to that point.
The reason I am telling you this is I think we should try to compile some type of guide like this and sticky it. I am not really knowledgable on Mustang performance, as I am new to the scene, but Id love to help, even if it is something like helping with the thread's organization.
So what do you guys think? Anyone up for the challenge?

That sounds like a hell of a good idea to me...it would definitely eliminate alot of 'what mods do i need for 13s...' threads. Which, cough, I'm guilty of posting.

Yeah, but one of the reasons I stick around this forum is that the newbs with those questions sometimes come up with some off-the-wall ideas that haven't necessarily been tried yet, as opposed to just sticking with the tried and true.
It would cut down on a lot of repeat questions, though. I personally think they should make a V-6 subforum....

I like the idea but I have some problems with it.
#1. The more you learn the more you realize there is a bizillion ways to do the same thing let's say in this case break into 13's. And besides just what is the cheapest way to do it, there is a million other reason for doing it other ways.
#2. Because of #1. you would either have to limit yaself to the most popular used types which a simple internet search or 5.0 magazine you can already find all of them, along with it can also hurt creativity in the scene. Or you could go for it all and try to do what I feel is basically impossible.
It's becuase of those things and some others I like the forum. We can talk to the person and work it out on a case by case basis.
