Help! Gift Idea Needed ASAP

I need a gift for my boyfriend, and I need to at least have it ordered tomorrow. I know, I know, last minute, but any suggestions would be much appreciated.

He has a 2006 F-150 regular cab FX4 with the 5.4. My budget is 100-350. Tires and a lift will come when he no longer has to park in a parking garage, so that's out. I am very familiar with Ford trucks, so technical speak is cool.

I am thinking maybe a K&N, or spliting the exhaust and putting something more rumbly on there, but I'm open to other suggestions.

Thanks so much!

Claire

Edge programmer is the best one! I think you can get it for like $330. I would love it if my gf bought me one.

Or.... you could buy him a lot of little things and make a basket of things.

A programmer was one of my 1st mods. Leveling kit is also nice

Or read my mod list for some other ideas.

You might throw in a gift certificate to the "Ford Collection Store" so he can get some cool F-150/Ford garb......

I would go with exhaust. Maybe you can help him put it on too

A truck just isnt a truck without a little rumble

Hypertech Power Programmer III. Give him some extra HP, MPG, and still be able to run 87 octane pump gas.
K&N or Fram Boost Cold Air Intake. I am really starting to like the Fram Boost.
Autospring 2.5" leveling kit.
Hunter Brush Guard. (ebay, look up Popular Link Store).
Hunter Nerf Bars (see above).
Interior protection items like rubber floor mats.
A gift card to a good detailer like Car Spa
Pro Comp 6"30watt Stainless lights.

My list of preferences in order would be;

1. Xcal II with Troyer tunes (don't sacrifice & go with something cheaper)
2. Intake
3. Exhaust
4. LT Handles


Good luck.
