Default Newbie with a few questions

Hi everyone,

I'm new to this site and love it. I just got a new 2007 fx2 with a 4.6l engine a couple weeks ago and wanted a few mods for performance and look. so i was thinking:

Engine
  • Borla dual rear exit or the Roush off road rear exit exhaust
  • S&b cold air intake
  • poweraid throttle body spacer
  • bbk throttle body
  • edge evo programmer
  • underdrive pulley
exterior
  • L.E.D. tail lights (carbon fiber)
  • L.E.D. 3rd brake light, not to sure if i want the mega one.
  • dual halo projector headlights with hid???????
  • halo fog lamps with hid????
  • high-rise twin scoop fuctional ram air hood
  • street scene or roush spoiler
Is the borla and roush the same? i know there is a legal and offroad but i heard it was made by borla. also do you guys think i should change the stock throttle body to bbk 70mm, a friend said i should to gain some horses and responce, but i dont know a whole about it. i also dont know what type of lowering kit to get.

Thanks and let me know what ya think.

i ordered the Borla single out. Yes, Borla makes Roush's exhaust. S&B makes a good kit, dont bother with the spacer and throttle body and nix the Edge tuner, its good at cooking a transmission. Get a Livewire or Xcal with a scan gauge. Troyer and/or VMP are a best bet for your tuning.

Never had any trouble at all with my Edge tuner. And the throttle body spacer has given me .2 MPG since installing it. Your mileage will be different.

Couldn't agree more.
