Question What First??

I recently puchased a 99' F-150 with a 4.6 V8. I have an extended warranty on it for 36,000 miles or 3 years. It currently has 65,000 miles on it. Except for the superchip I just bought everything else is stock. For better overall performance and sound what should be the next thing on my list? I will eventually buy it all, but it will be over a long period of time. Any sugestions will help.

Thanks,

Andy

performance

A good catback exhaust will give you a few horses and some low end. I believe that Gibson is a good system for both of these improvements-but im not sure if its the best. Check into a K&N FIPK (fuel injection performance kit). They add a decent amount of power. Headers could also be a good choice for freeing up some power.

Go with an exhaust system then go for the K&N filter system

Well, I just saw in a magazine were they took a Dodge R/T truck and put in the following...... Chip, K&N air intake and Gibson exhaust. All they got for there $700.00 was= 16 HP So is it worth it Do not believe Manufacturer HP claims!!!

With my FIPK and exhaust, I seem to have better throttle response. A chip brings out these mods to give more HP. I went with the Flowmaster 50, sounds great. I have sound clips if you want them.
