My car is an auto, so the shifter bracket isn't for me. I for sure want to lower the car and have found springs, slightly used, in my price range. But, won't I also need other components to lower it first?

To do it right, yes.

I'm in the same boat as a broke college kid but I have a fairly stock mustang, how substantial are the effects of the bracket?

Fewer missed shifts into third. It stiffens up that slop box of a shifter the mt-82 has. The stock bracket is very sloppy (it is made of thin galvanized metal, rubber, and zip ties!) and allows the shifter box to shift under load.

BMR lower control arms, or a tune if you already have a handheld tuner.
