I am just wanting some input on these items. Is there one brand that outshines the rest? Accufab seems to be pretty good but dunno. Is there a better mod than these for the $$? Also the difficulty of install? Thanx for all input.

just port the shit of your stock intake and put a ford racing t/b they work really well with my car. but the best mod for the your car is gears cause it's not that expensive but the install is.

Ditto what he said on the gears. I think you'll notice a bigger difference in those than you would with the TB/Plenum. But here's an article on all the TB/plenums:

I have heard nothing but good things about JohnB for installs, and he is in Suisun. 3.73's are good but modulars like rpm so 4.10's wouldn't be a bad choice. Depends on how much freeway driving you plan to do

ford racing gears are good, u want 4.10's cause i have 3.73 and i want to change already, don't worry about the freeway cause 99 and up mustangs have a very good overdrive on 5th gear. I think the accufab is a waste of money cause there only like 1-3 hp between a ported stock intake.

I say get some FMS gears, and then hit up JohnB, he did mine and he's damned fast when doing them
