Oh gross, glasspacks, take those things off and get yourself a set of super turbos. As far as the lowering goes those springs killed your traction. Get yourself a set of adjustable shocks so you can adjust them for your spring rate. Some adjustable LCA's will take a few secs of youy 60's as well.

performance - yea but not that u could really notice - sound better - yes - make sure u run a y pipe - NOT DUALS - v-6's dont move enough air for duals thats why they sound dumb .. yes they sound dumb... no don't argue they sound dumb... 1 40 series flowmaster in a y -pipe and you'll sound like a v-8 - please please trust me - it will sound better than anything these other dodo heads have n their cars - also swap emblems to GT - nobody will ask - BTW mine are for sale if interested - mint condition

lowering 3" is bad. 2" is bad unless you've taken the time and money to do it right. More than 1.5" of lowering is counterproductive and makes the car handle like shat. If you want lower and a good ride, try coil over conversion from maximum motorsports or Griggs racing.

get rid of the glass packs.. borla or magnaflow will give you a nice rumble without the blatty sound of cherry bombz.

yo the best sounding mufflers for a 6banger stock is www.spintechmufflers.com hands down...if you go on the 3.8 mustang forums they got alota other guyz with that set up...I got the side exhaust kit, but they have the normal flow through type as well.... trust me on this one...everyone that had flowmasters and then changed to SPintech says spintech hands down...alot more guyz are changing to them...they're a little less well known...but thats because they are just starting out...

As for your drop...new struts won't lower u that much more unless you go and get adjustable coil overs...but i don't think you'd wana spend 1500 dollars on something like that...plus honestly don't lower your car too much you'll run into alota problems on the road...
