hello comunity...

i have a 97 f150 supercab flareside 4,6v8
and i want to take off more power from it,
what parts do you advise to me for???

i seen this exhaust system by gibson


one other???

i want to buy also the headers but gibson doesn't make it for 97 but for 98....

trere are better product???

sorry for my english, i'm italian

 

slap a supercharger on there. That will give ya more power

 

Your not going to get the increases you desire from bolt on parts like exhaust, intake etc.
The motor has little accessable power in that way.
These parts are a benifit at higher RPM where airflow begins to be less efficient with stock parts.
First, the motor is only 262 cubic inches in a 6000 pound truck.
The basic problem is the lack of engine displacement for producing torque in a naturally aspiriated engine.
Supercharging makes up for the small engine size by "forcing" a lot more air into the same displacement.
PCM reprogramming may net some improvement over stock but still not a lot.
Only way is to supercharge but it also requires a complete system design or you would get into issues of reliabiliy due to mismatches in the system.
One example is ignition timing aggressiveness. Another is fuel injection increases, so you see why there needs to be complete system design.
Another way to help 'take-off' is to install lower rear end gears.
Good luck.

 

i know that if i slap a supercharger i can take off the maximum power
but i want to buy only a complete exhaust system (with headers),
and somethingelse that help me to take off some horsepower....

so what exhaust system do you advise to me???
what headers?
somethingelse?

what's lower rear??? a lowering kit?
what gears i have to change? which i have to buy???

thx for your time
