Ok I'm 17, lol, so i still live with my parents. And it is holiday season...My parents are divorced so each one asks what i want for xmas. I told them i want nothing because i do not need anything to be honest. I have a lot of wants haha but i do not NEED anything. That didnt really play well with the parents.."Well i want to get you something blah blah". So i was thinking rather then them suprising me with a gift, ex. holiday sweater, i could give them some ideas ha. I was thinking i could do some minor things to the engine, but then again it is becoming winter so maybe car audio seems more appealing. I wouldnt ask for anything more than a couple hundred, maybe 3 or 4 for exhaust. Do you think i should ask for engine parts, or just save money myself? :dontknow:

Most of my list of xmas stuff is interior things for my mustang, bullitt pedals, dual gauge pod w/ digital trans temp gauge and digital oil temp, sequential tail lights, BOI smoked headlights, just little things, lol.
The motor stuff I want to pay for so I know exactly what Im getting.

Any recommendations on what exactly to get?

what are your plans for the car?
Well assuming it is going to be my DD for a while, i just want it running smoothly for a 140k+ motor, and be relatively quick. Lol i would love to say i am gonna do a 4.2 swap, slap a turbo on it etc, but i think small engine gains over time would be good as well? im just not sure where to start.. lol
