Kenne Bell. Quite possibly one of the best bolt-on's you can buy.

Here's what I'd recommend, in this order:
Pro-5.0 shifter
Bassani x-pipe
Bassani cat-back system
Gears (3.73s are my all-around favorite for 4.6s)
Underdrive pulleys
Cold air intake
Accufab intake plenum with 70mm throttle body
RACE Systems chip (dyno-tuned here @ APEX)
Ford Motorsport ceramic-coated shorty headers

I keep most of these (if not all of them) parts in stock, so let me know if you have any other questions, ok?

1. Pro 5.0 Shifter
2. Off Road Pipe off your choice(depending on how much you want to spend and what type of exhaust note you want)
3. Catback of your choice(depending on how much you want to spend and what type of exhaust note you want)
4. FMS 3.73 Gears
5. Underdrive Pulleys

Can't go wrong with a shifter & gears.

From there, it's my opinion that it depends on what your goals are for the car.

WTF [Confused]

You put on one pulley? What kind of car?

Under drive pulleys do help mustangs (and SHO's.)
