Sct tuner with custom tunes s&b intake and roush exhaust with high flow magnaflow cats. Your truck prolly has 4 cats so cut out rear ones and weld in straight pipe

08 has 2 cats so you can replace them with hi flows part number 94106. I just installed volant CAI on mine and it growls real nice and seems to pick up better. Obviously don't know about mpgs yet. And I have roush off road and cut the back cats out (mine has 4) and it really sounds nice and I've only had the exhaust less than 100 miles. Check YouTube for exhaust sounds you like
