Which class are you running in, or is there a particular class you would like to stay in?  A lot of what you could do will be determined on that.

Good tires and a front sway bar are always good places to start when setting up any car.  Sway bars are fairly cheap and help reduce body roll a bunch.

I'm not really familiar with Mustangs, hopefully someone else can give you some insight.
