For Fox body to late model Ford Mustangs a Maximum Motorsports Maximum Grip Box FTW IMO

World-class handling is the hallmark of the Maximum Grip Box. This quantum leap forward in technology was originally developed for street-driven Mustangs, yet with only a few minor parts substitutions is used on many winning racecars. See the impressive results of our 1996 Mustang at the NMRA SoCal autocross.

Benefits
Huge increase in cornering grip and straight-line traction.
Handling balance is tunable.
Increased stability.
Ride height is adjustable to suit your preference.
Quicker steering response.
Nosedive while braking is greatly reduced.
Body roll during cornering is greatly reduced.
Chassis rigidity is significantly increased.
Firm, yet good ride quality, as is expected of a performance car.

Image is sidways, but I think you get the point. Little guy on the bottom (left) was replaced by the big guy on the top (right). A k04 replaced by a GTX3076r with an external wastegate turbine housing. That blue guy is the external wastegate. I've gained an additional 70-80whp, but the turbo is capable of about another 200hp.

Peel and stick fake hood scoop
Peel and stick fake fender vents
Pinstripe tape
Window stickers of products I can't afford
LED colorful lights
Large dual exhaust pipes on a single exhaust car
GT-R label on trunk of non-GT-R car
VTEC label on non-Honda/Acura vehicle
Yep, put those things on my car and it'll be really fast! Each one of those items adds at least 20 more horsepower! <sarcasm>

I hear you. My Mk4 Golf TDI looks like it has 90hp and 155 lb/ft of torque ... not 160 hp and 270 lb/ft. Only a tiny puff of exhaust smoke at WOT. Suspension upgrades are hidden, too.
