Best Performance...
What is the best performance mod I can do to my truck. It is pretty fast for a v-6, but I want to be able to blow away guys with v-8's. I want to keep everything n/a.

Hi Hotshot,
The Superchip for the 4.2 V-6 F-150 will add a maximum of 25 horsepower and 31 lbs./ft. of torque at the flywheel. The exact spec on the rated max gains is the use of 92 octane premium gas at sea level altitude, just to give you an idea.
The top 3 best "bang-for-the-buck" mods on these F-150's are:
1.) Optimize powertrain programming with the Superchip. this is available thru us, as we are the National Distributor of Superchips Inc.'s product line, serving dealers & end users across the country. We have an online ordering system right here on F-150 Online, the link to which is just below in my signature line.
2.) Reduce restriction in the air intake tract, using the Airaid airbox elimination kit, worth 8-10 hp at the flywheel. This is available here in F-150 Online's store, which you can access by simply clicking on the link on the left side of your screen that says "Online Store".
3.) Reduce restriction on the exhaust side, using a good name-brand cat-back exhaust system. These are usually worth about 8-10 hp on the 4.2 V-6, and that too is available in the F-150 Online store.
If you'd have further questions or would like to go over any aspect of the Superchip in greater detail, please feel free to give us a shout, our contact info is just below in our signature line, and we're happy to help.
Best of luck with your truck,
