ok guys, im debating which new mods to get, and since the only mod i have right now is a shorter antenna , i thought i should enlist some help on this. im wanting to go with...
1. filter (JLP, PSP)
2. chip (JLP, PSP, JDM)
3. 4# pulley (JLP, PSP, JDM)

ive done the searching here and researched the parts as much as i could, ive come up with 3 main vendors...JLP, PSP and JDM. If anyone has had experiences , good or bad, that they can share with any of these products from any of these vendors (or others that i havent listed), i would appreciate the inputs (please no bashing).
other mods that im going with are...
4. new plugs
5. boost bypass
6. drop shackels
and possibly...
7. valve body (if theres any money left in the bank!)

thanks for the help guys, id be lost wothout this forum...

 

I would get the valvebody first! That will also save you from having to send the chip back for a reburn.

 

I would change that 4# pulley for 6#. Get some NGK TR-6s, the rest of your mods are good except the boost by-pass, just unplug the boost by-pass solenoid. All the tuners you mentioned are great tuners, Ive dealt with JLP for my mods and have had great service. Choosing a tuner well thats your choice I think you will get great service from either one.

 

Im happy with the mods Ive done so far and also very happy with the tuners Ive bought them from

 

 

how hard of an install is the valve body? and what are the gains from it if i do that right from the begining?

i thought about the 6# pulley, but i changed my mind when i read this post...

specificly don's comments, does anyone else have any opinions about this?

thanks again

 

the first mods i had were a 6lb plugs and chip from psp. i can say that Sal is the bomb and will do anything to make you happy. i havent had much experience with any of the other tuners so i can say anything about them. but i can say sal is by far one of the top dogs when it comes to customer service

 

All good vendors I would get the 4# setup that JDM sells it is the only one I have seen with the support cage and bearing for the pulley I know there are tons running out there with the bolt on pulley but from a Ford Tech standpoint I like the crankshaft support. also a A/F meter would be a good early mod as it seems most L's die from starvation LOL and most mods tend to add to this problem chips, pulleys, air intakes etc

 

a wide band is definitly better than the crap a/f ratio gauges that run off of the stock narrow

 

lightning 5.4, could you elaborate a littleon the a/f meter your talking about, ive never heard or seen one. thanks...

well, after countless hours on the search menu, ive decided to go with the chip, 4 or 6lb pully, valve body and plugs all from PSP. thanks to everyone who helped me out. Sal, youll be getting a call from me in the next few days.
just curious, can anyone give me an estimate of HP and ET i might gain from this?
thanks again
