Got my radio in today and got it all wired up and installed except the bypass I ordered. I have a switch installed in a very funny way but it works for now.

Everything works so far except the xm doest have audio but has info

And the the ac is all fixed and working. Set me back 650 but the guy cleaned all the crap from between my condenssor and radiator and flushed the radiator and filled it with new motorcraft green elc coolant.

glad you got your 4wd fixed, now david just needs to fix his

got any pics of your radio installed?

return that intake if you can. the stock is good for up to 500 hp (dyno results to prove it on powerstroke.org) if you want a louder intake, pop your hood and you can see where the intake goes just left of the head light you can cut out a spot. there is a write up over on the org as well. it's called the zoodad mod or something of the sort.

Congrats on the new truck! Yes like other members said skip the intake. Delete the cat and muffler and add a SCT head safe tunes, with a EGR block plate and hammer down!
