Egr delete won't do much I'd any. I have mine deleted because of my headers. I didn't feel like finding a way to reconnect it. And as far as cams go, if you use your truck as a truck, stay stock.

Headers and tune would be the most I'd do on a daily. You can regear too if you want. There's not a whole lot of making these trucks faster without boost

On 35'Sat it will be near stock. You really should have a tuner to correct the speedo so the transfer shifts correctly
