Heads, cam, intake, exhaust, fuel, ignition upgrade and a wet kit.

You're also going to need some chassis stiffening and brakes.

You could do it with a dry kit but it's safer the other way IMO. I don't like filling bottles.

There's probably a dyno and quarter mile thread... Here it is: https://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/threads/the-dyno-thread.678889/

Look at the dyno sheets and their build/mod lists to get a good idea of what is necessary. Keep an eye on the supporting mods. Lots of folks LOVE to list their turbos, cams, heads, etc... but most of those things necessitate supporting mods of some sort. Braking and suspension is key.
