Very nice build! Compared to stock, how much power do you think you've picked up & have you noticed a mpg improvement since the e-fan swap?

Thanks bud. Its really hard to say how much power I've picked up because the 35s kind of weigh it down. The best mpg I've seen is 14.1 with all my up to date mods, not much of a difference with efans though maybe .5-1 on average.

Tailgate was easy. Just have to buy an 8 dollar part from ford and it goes right in. Headers were a pain in the *** because I broke my dipstick tube off inside the block like basically everyone else who installed headers. I also had no exhaust on my truck when I put them on because I cut the factory exhaust off and had a muffler shop route me an entire new exhaust after I put the headers on.
