I just installed my leveling kit and my truck is feeling really sluggish now, so i wanna go ahead with some engine mods before i do anything else. I have a flow master exhaust system, and throttle body space (WORST INVESTMENT OF MY LIFE), and thats it...

which direction would you guys go next? Intake? Chip? Straight Pipes? Super Charger??? Thanks!

Get a programmer. See the Chips, Tuners & Programming forum. https://www.f150online.com/forums/ch...rogramming-34/

 

wat is ur budget? i would definately get a tuner and CAI. if u have more to spend, think about longtube headers, high flow cats, and a bigger throttle body. and if u really have a big wallet, put a supercharger on it.

 

i think my nex step will be the computer progammer, but im not 100% sure on that yet, maybe both the intake with the chip....who knows and my budget will probably around 1000

 

$1000 eh. You would be able to get a true dual exhaust with long tube headers, a programmer, and the Gotts Intake. All this depends on shop labor costs. Or you could regear for around $1000.

 

dual exhaust and headers puts u at 1300 bucks here. plus a programmer and regears, ur at 2k already. good quality LTs are 600-800$.

 

Well you never said they would have to be expensive LT's. Pacesetter's are high quality in my book.

 

different stroke for different folks. all about wat u wanna spend, you get wat u pay for, in most cases. anyway, OP..wat are u thinkin about. 1000 bucks

 

Regear. There wouldn't even be a doubt in my mind if I had $1000 to play with.

 

i would re gear 410s, exhaust, and programmer. thats about 1k.

 

I would definitely suggest the programmer, un-leash the power within the OEM tune!

 

A leveling kit made your truck sluggish!?

 

woops didnt even notice u have exhaust already. programmer, gears, CAI. wat size piping do u have for the exhaust? and yea truck feeling sluggish after level? did u upgrade to bigger tires?

 

To add to the level comments, I also am confused, when I got mine leveled it just felt more heavy duty, not sluggish at all. Did you get an alignment right afterwards? You are supposed to after any front end suspension modification, that could be the reason it feels sluggish if you never did.

 

Yes i did get it realigned after the leveling kit was put on and i mean it kinda does make since being that the tires are a lot heavier now, but it just feels super slow for some reason like i have to step on it to get it up towards 4k rpm's

and I would love to do headers, there just soooo expensive i got quoted 600 alone just for install, I just want some more horse power asap headers would also give it a deeper sound though right???

I do have the Flowmaster 45 series on there with the 2.50 pipes, sounds great dumped right over the axle so if possible i would like to keep that cause i love it. But im open to pretty much anything.....
