Ok guys, I've changed up my ideas to something a little more simple but still give me plenty of power and fun! I don't know how to delete threads or if you can, but please let me know how if it's possible so I can delete my previous thread on my plans.
So this is my new idea that will take place over the next few years, in roughly the order I will perform them in on my 2000 convertable mustang gt. I already have borla stingers cat back and tri ax short throw shifter. Next up is a magnaflow tru x catted x pipe, followed by 3.73 gears and a hand held tuner.
Next up is the 2.6 kenne bell, cooler spark plugs, 60# injectors, kenne bell cool air filter, 5" intake, lethal performance 1000 horsepower capable return style fuel system, glenns performance mustang sleeper fuel tank, 8.5" crank pully, electric water pump, and lower boost as low as I can till the car can handle 14 pounds. I'm not installing the kenne bell until I have everything I listed previously, and I'll put it all on together.
Once I'm finished with putting that stuff together, I'm going with mmr 1000 horsepower capable forged internals with low compression pistons. Next up is preparing the suspension. I'll be buying H&R super sport springs, Maximum Motorsports caster camber plates, steeda upper control arms (would you guys suggest adjustable or non adjustable?), steeda rear aluminum lower control arms, full length sub connectors (please suggest a good brand to me), steeda bumpsteer kit, steeda x2 balljoint kit, tokico d spec adjustable strut and shock kit, and eibach sway bar kit. That sums it up for the suspension.
Next up I'll be looking at a new 6 speed manual transmission (please give me some advice on a good transmission that can handle plenty of power), While I'm getting the transmission I'm going to swap out clutches to handle my end goal as well, and a carbonfiber driveshaft from mmr. Then I'm lookin at a new 31 spline differential (could use some brand suggestions on this as well), then moser 31 spline axles.
After those mods, I'm buying new black 2010 gt500 style rims. 18/9 in front and 18/10 in the rear, and I'll be wrapping the front tires in either 265, 275, or 285 tires and 305 or 315 in the rear. I'd like it if I could avoid having tires that I'd need to replace yearly, but if it's unavoidable then so be it, I'll happily pay the bill if it will get me the traction I want. I'm also going to upgrade to cobra r big brakes in the front, and if I can find them, also get the cobra r rear brake kit.
The next thing I'll be getting is trick flow heads and 270 comp cams with patriot performance valve spring kit. At this point, I believe my car should handle the 14 psi for daily driving. My car is first and foremost a daily driver. I wanted something that is much more faster than your normal mustang gt and much more fun. I like going fast and this will be a long build that me and my dad could have plenty of fun with. I will be taking it to the track to play around with, and at the track I will be swapping pulleys to run 20 pounds or more if the car can safely handle that power. I may also be taking the car to autocross events from time to time, but it would definatly be more of a straight line car. All in all, I would like a fast, fun, and comfortable daily driver, a fast track car, and something that isn't just fast in a straight line but on twisty turns. I'm not expecting to go full throttle around turns, but I'd like to be able to get around and have fun on them.
Now that you guys know how I'm going to set up my car I would love it if anyone would answer a few questions for me! What kind of horsepower should I expect? How will my traction be? Will it be decently comfortable and firm? Will I need more in the way of suspension upgrades? Please suggest ANYTHING else that I will need or may need to upgrade to keep my car reliable!!! Any suggestions in generally are very welcomed and appreciated, but I also am pretty set on this goal. Again, please please please give me your input!!! Thank you all!

but I do always keep a good chunk of money in the bank at all times so it's there if I need it.
