hey welcome to the forum

assuming you have alot of money, you could start with an intake and exhaust. but if you want to spank your stang friends then you have to go motor swap, there are alot of different ways to approach this. from what ive heard the b16a1 engine into our 4th gen will lose to a stang. so if you decide to get a b16a1 engine swap, it will probably cost around 3 grand for the full swap at a shop, then you need some kind of forced induction like turbo supercharger or nos. you can also go b18a1 which may cost you around the same price depending on the shop doing it, again to beat a stang you would need to go forced induction. you can also go b18c1 which would probably cost around 5 grand, now that motor maybe up and up wiht the stang, i dont really know. then there lsvtec which is the b18a1 bottom end with a b16a1 head, you get the torque of the b18a1 and the topend of the b16a1, i think this will beat a stang, swap probably cost around $5000 with the ls vtec conversion, faster than a gsr. also there the crvtec, which uses a crv motor bottom end wiht a b16a1 head, which has more torque and hp then a ls vtec. but from i hear the lsvtec and crvtec are not long lasting motors
