You might want to try MGW Inc for the short throw shifter. They are located in the USA.
http://www.mgwltd.com/ I am partial to the Magnaflow Exhaust System. Loud when you punch it will a low rumble at idle. http://www.magnaflow.com/ |
Hit up youtube and listen to some exhaust clips from cars similar to yours. Its probably the easiest way to find the sound you're looking for.

Is the 04 a Gt? I liked my Steeda shifter on the 05gt I used to own but there are a few that people will recommend.
|

I always found 3rd gear was a bitch when shifting like a madman, ok I did it twice
|
I'm using the B&M ripper shifter,and have had it in my GT since '03.No complaints yet,and still feels like it did when i first installed it.
I've also heard a lot of good things about MGW shifter. Exhaust wise.....go to you tube and check exhaust sound clips,or go here.... http://www.mustangexhaust.com/. Some worry about the quality,myself i go for the sound.I don't daily drive my GT,so it doesn't see snow,and sees no rain,unless i get caught in it,so i don't i don't worry about the quality as much as some,but i do care about the fit. Right now my GT has the Bassani catted X pipe with 2 1/2 dynomax flowtubes with 2 1/2 Flowmaster 40s "originals" followed by 2 1/2 dynomax tailpipes.I love the sound personally. |

Take your time,and don't rush to buy parts just to have "per say" parts.If you want a paticular part,take your time,and get them when you can.Took me 8 years to get my GT where it is so far,and it isn't even close to being done.
As for the Bassani x pipe,it is worth every dollar.Out of all the X pipes with cats i researched on the net,the Bassani came on top compared to the rest real world comments on many sites for the quality for it's cats (which was my main,and biggest concern),along with the rest of the mid pipes design,and fit,and finish. |
Not real happy with my MagnaFlows but to lazy/cheap to change them out

I have Bassani catted X-pipe and axle backs. Great fit, finish and sound. Pricey but worth every penny for me. |

On my 05gt I found the Flowmasters to have a very deep muscle car sound. With the magna's on my 5.4 it just does not have that sound. I guess I could have just x2 chadstangs reply lol
