Hey everybody just wanted to get some opinions on engine upgrades/preformance. I want to get the most power out of my engine as I can but at the same time not going to kill my pocket. I already have a cold air intake and straight pipes for good air flow but that doesnt give much power. It is my daily driver but its also my woods truck. would love more horsepower and torque. Was thinking about a tuner or maybe a new camshaft depending on how hard those are to swap, dont really know what else i could do. Would really be cool if yall could help out a noobie. dont know if it matters or not but its all stock except for cold air,duel straight,3" suspention lift, over sized tires, and a 180lbs front bumper plus winch 80lbs. -thanks

 

Engine size?

 

tuner will help a little, cams dont do a whole lot and will cost a good bit unless you install yourself, could pick up a supercharger for a decent price

 

sorry forgot about the size its a 5.4 V8

 

The big 3 for a 5.4 are gotts mod, exhaust, and then a tuner with custom tunes.

Cams are big $$$ on these engines.

 

what are gotts mods sorry a little new here. and what gotts mod and tuner would be recomended?

 

Gotts mod is an inexpensive CAI.

 

oh ok well I already have a spector CAI. what tuners are good? was thinking of a bully dog

 

Edge Evo. Bullydog doens't exactly have a good rep around here. Franchi could help you out with that, he's one of the mods.

 

How many miles are on the truck? If up around or over the 100,000 mark I would recommend changing out your spark plugs and coil packs. I went with Champion spark plugs and MSD coil packs. Made a big difference. I would also like to recommend an EDGE tuner to go with your CAI and exhaust. You don't need custome tunes cause you are practically stock. So canned tunes from EDGE will work just fine. I hope this help and you should get some HP gains from it.
