It's my personal belief that you build up suspension and brakes before you add big power. Mustangs aren't exactly known for their braking and handling prowess, so slapping an s/c on a stock suspension always seemed like a bad idea to me, though I'm sure people do it all the time. Since you're already running a Roush stage 1, you may want to keep the Roush train rolling along and get their stage 2 or stage 3 parts. I personally like maximummotorsports.com suspension components, however. Making a plan is the most important thing, though. You don't want to waste money buying new parts because the first one's weren't right. For example, I believe Roush uses a different suspension set up for their Stage 3 cars because of the added weight of the s/c. It's something to consider. You also want to know what you want to do with the car. A suspension set up for LEGAL drag racing AT A TRACK, for example, is going to look different than suspension for autocrossing or road racing (road racing not to be confused with street racing).
