Mods before a tuner?

Hey folks, I have read many awesome posts about the troyer tuners. I am convinced and will place an order soon. Only thing is, that I am wondering if I should do my other mods before ordering the tuner. I currently have an after market exhaust. But, I plan to add a K&N filter, change out my gears (3:55's) to 4:10's and also add the troyer dual electric fans.

Should I add the filter, gears & fans prior to ordering the tuner?

Thanks.

If you are going to get a Troyer tune, get an AF1.

Where is the dyno sheet?

I bet the S&B makes more power when the AF1's filter is covered in mud and water because it's an open design.

Most Definately do your mods First! if not the Tuner will not be as effective if you put them in after you get the tuner. This way Mike can make the adjustments for your mods! Anita troyer told me today that my Chip should ship out today or monday!! I also have the 16" Dual E-Fans, they Work Great, but if you're not to sure how to install them, Take them to Ford, they put mine on very Professionally and even their Mechanics had to call Troyer a couple of times to get everything right!!
