5.4L mods

Just purchased a 2006 F250 with the 5.4. I would like to improve the power and fuel economy. I'm also wanting this truck to last quite a while. Are chips good for this truck or just for diesels? Was also thinking of dual exhaust. Any reccomendations would be much appreciated!

Air Raid intake system, Flowmaster exhaust setup, and a Superchip will get you going.

They make a Rouch for it; only cost you about $3500 for another 100hp. That's about the same hp as a V-10 or less.

Many have said (at another web site I moderate) that a tuner for the 3-valve fly-by-wire system really wakes up both the 5.4 and the V10.
