I have herd that those type "R" stickers are good for 30 or 40 hp.

Can you tell us exactly what year and motor you have?

There is a free air intake mod that you can do, but Its not the same for all motors.

okay, here you go.

http://www.fordf150.net/howto/airintake.php

and you could always get a replacement mufler for about 60 bucks, or a peice of straight pipe for about 15 bucks.

Sory, I didn't realize that that was your post also. (1+1= 3 I guess...)
