First mods to do
Hi guys, first time on here. I've had my 2011 XLT Ecoboost for about 6 months now and finally saved up enough to start doing a couple mods.
So far I've done:
1. 20" led light bar in the intercooler space
2. 12" sub and amp (we all know the bass sucks)
3. tinted the windows 20%
4. tinted tail lights with film
5. lastly plastidip'd the chrome grille and door handles to give it that more blacked out feel.
I was wondering what else I should do next and I'm up for all suggestions!

MPT or 5 Star
Read reviews on both and make a decision.

There are many mods to first do...But I would wait on the tune...This is what I have done to my 2014 F150 Tremor 3.5l.
aFe Magnum Force Stage 2 Pro Guard 7 Cold Air Intake
aFe Bladerunner Intercooler Charge Tube
BBK 73mm Throttle Body
aFe Mach Force XP 4" CatBack Exhaust
Ford Emblem Backup Camera...installed like it would be from the factory (MyFordTouch Screen)
WeatherTech In Channel Window Vent Visor and Bug Guard
I havent gotten the tune because these upgrades are enough...more torque and horsepower than I will ever use...But its fun!!
I have also done some aesthetic mods as well side view mirror front and back LED blinkers and puddle lights..Recon third brake light. Have a Westin HDX brush guard that I havent installed yet sitting in my garage, and I want to install 2.5" HBS front leveling kit.
Tunes are great...but if you dont have the package to go with it...whats the point...Spend the money upgrade your truck then tune it!! JMO

We'll wait and see if you still feel that, once you DO tune it.
Where in Michigan are you?

That may be true haha...but I will put a Sprint Booster on it before a tune...Had a Porsche Boxster but traded it in for the Tremor...Winters in Indiana do not go well with a Porsche...I had one on that...and all I can say is DAMN...zero throttle lag...scary quick too

Spoken like somone without a tune Your truck would become a different beast I would bet. The tune can be modified as you add performance parts and changes much more than just the power of the truck right out of the gate even if stock.

There's no point in buying something twice, right?

A Sprint Booster will not mess with the onboard computer...I get jittery when you talk about reflashing...anything can go wrong and your liable if things get screwed up.
