so heres the list.
pacesetter long tube headers $300
X pipe and the rest of the piping to finish a true dual $300
4.56 gears $1600-2000
AF1 custom cold air $250
XCal2 w/custom tune $400-600?
So thats a little over my budget.....for now. 4k would do the trick
under drive pulley's would be nice
Its just where do you stop...its a 99 4x4 xlt 5.4 w/130k on it...someday within a year or so im gonna sell the truck and get something newer and ill never get the money out of it i put in. I paid 7 for it, put 5 in the lift and tires...if i put another 5 in it thats 17k, ide be lucky to see 13 come out of it. hmm, sounds like im giving money away

Well if your planing on getting a newer truck in a year or two you could save a little money by cutting your list.
Just get the gears and tuner and it will be like a hole new truck.
I know what your saying about spending money on it.
Iv got so much in my truck I'm just gonna have to keep it till I die,,hahahaha
And just spent 5000 + on a new tranny!
