Default Newbie - looking for suggestions 2014 f-150 build

Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie and glad to be here.

A quick history-never had a truck, speed addict, but looking forward to the 4x4 truck work. My daily driver is a 2010 Nissan armada, my toy 2008 slightly modded Porsche 911 turbo, wife drives a cadallic srx suv.

Here's a quick pic of the Porsche (and yes it's very fast)




But to the point, I just purchased a new 2014 black Ford F-150 Stx 4x4 and am having a local guy mod it up. Here is what he is doing, please let me know if you have any suggestions, etc. thanks in advance

Tinted windows (legal 35% I think and a lighter tint on front windshield)
Putco led radius light
Rough country 6" lift
Amp power steps
Anzo halo headlights (smoked)
Anzo led brake lights (smoked)
Anzo 3rd brake light
Anzo mirror lights
Warnvr 10k winch
Road armor front bumper
Fuel maverick 20x12 rims
mt atz 35x12.50 20s
Upgrade stereo (jbl gto 8628, digital design a5, digital design cm1000, digital design 508d d4)
Procharger stage 2 supercharger
Mag a flo 2 out cat back
2 sets of piaa 510 bumper lights

My goal is a cool blacked out 4x4 and will only drive on weekends and also something I won't get stuck in

As I said I am completely new to the truck world, so any suggestions are appreciated the truck is in the shop now, but changes can be made!

Thanks!!

Chris (Topher)

Some updated pics, headlights were too dark so they are replacing them, supercharger should be complete tomorrow, front bumper should be done today. I'm ready to move )

Thanks in advance!

You guys are a tough crowd, I'll continue this thread until the project is complete. Subwoofers going in today, amp for stereo, wireless controller for winch, and correcting one the halo lights up front that was leaking.

If you are curious, I pulled my performance vbox out and the super charged truck with cat backs did 0-60 in 7 seconds, the Porsche does it in 2.8 seconds but it's a heavy truck with big tires so I think it's time is respectable. The guy at pro charger claimed the truck would beat my Porsche 0-60, I guess he was wrong....not even close!

your truck looks very good i will suggest to you to add bed cover like BAK BAKFlip G2 or another type that you may like . about your engine which one you got the 5.0 ? if so with super charge it should go in 6 second or even 5s
but the extra weight do effect the stock body and wheel with catback CAI ECU tuning should make you go early 6s 0-60
