Mod my truck help...

I have an 07 screw 4.6L. I have already installed a cold air intake from Air raid. I have install a red led light bar for the brake lights just above the rear bumper. I already have vent shades on the windows. The windows are also tinted front and rear and front windshield up above.

My question is what other mods can I do. I was thinking exhaust, I was quoted between 400-500 for a setup. The price varied weather I wanted 1 muffler of 2, It would be dual exhaust either out the back or side.

I was thinking maybe new rims and tires.

Right now it is rear wheel drive I have no 4x4. I was wondering what it would cost to make it a posi. Right now only one wheel spins when I do a burn out. Also what would something like this cost? I am looking to spend aroun 1,500.00 on total upgrades. What would you guys suggest I do and in what order.

Thanks,
Sal

Exhaust makes a nice difference. i prefer magnaflow and unless that was a mail order cat back that price is very high for a shop to do it. Most places a muffler swap and some tips shouldnt be more than 150-250. Where abouts in tampa are you?

get an exhaust system and a custom tune.

No kidding. Dynomax Race Bullets are around $60 for two. A universal H Pipe isn't much. Just take it to a shop and have them weld everything up. Look at SummitRacing.com for prices.

Can you recommend any muffler shops in the Tampa area? I only moved here a few years ago and don't know any trust worthy shops.
