Here are the options I am contemplating for my next upgrade but I want feedback:
1. Short shifter - Thinking MGW because I only want the best, it's sweet and I don't like missing the 2nd to 3rd at the track.
2. Performance Radiator and new colored hoses - Better cooling can never hurt and the hoses would be a nice underhood dress-up but which color (red b/c of my car, yellow b/c it's coolant, blue, black)
3. Finish out rear suspension mods - BMR adj. panhard bar and relocator along with the BMR UCA mount (to accompany the UCA I have not yet install).
4. New Cervinis hood - bad ass, only downfall is that it is the most expensive mod

Shifter and suspension would be what I'd do first.

shifter and suspension, people are making 600hp with that same radiator so an upgrade is pointless.

The MGW shifter is on the way along with a Roush rear spoiler.

a shifter or finish the rear would be my choice. I would probably do engine mounts and the shifter~ since it can be an issue when the engine is tq'ed causing bind when shifting due to the design that ford decided to use with locating the shifter as they did... vs the pre 05 design.
