Well I ran the t4 From ssi for a while and hated it, I will never buy anything from those guys again so I loaded up my 91 v10 and felt better all around, I'm waiting on the xv1 tune to come out. I did forget about solo I will look into them do they have a full exaust package?

Iv had both tuners and not looking to buy another one, I just want to throw an exaust setup and intake on it to pick up power, I like my LMS tune I'm ready for the xv1 to come out but honestly I don't feel much difference from the ssi tunes t4 vs the v10 tune.

Then it sounds like waiting for the V10 tune is the right thing to do for you.
Downpipe before intake imo, some would say a charge air cooler would before the downpipe too, as soon as mine comes in I can add my $0.02.

CAC, Downpipe, tune. Those are your power enhancers. The v10 is a dinosaur - it is not even close to contending. There are so many timeslips and Dynos at this point to prove that is true.

On my truck, the T4 had the smoothest shifting and smoothest part throttle driveability. Didn't care for throttle response and detonation at WOT. Hope you have better luck!

I don't know enough about LMS to advise one way or another, but remember one thing: a custom tune from a reputable tuner you trust will extract more out of that exhaust upgrade than pure bolt on power. If you can--go catless. That way, the tuner of your choice can program your tune to command the same AFR regardless of EGT. If you run cats, whether stock or not, when EGTs go up, the tune has to compensate by enriching the mixture to protect the cats from damage. That equals power loss and lower fuel economy.

DP's are def going to make power...look at the 1/4 mile times after just adding DP's.
I would say that DP's would be your next mod and pick-up a few ponies.
