Question How Much $$$ Have You Spent on Engine Mods??

Myself, I just went ahead and paid upfront for the 5.4L
Unfortunately the payments don't leave much $$$ for engine mods.

The only engine mods I have are the Superchip and K & N filter. Chip was $150.00 and the filter was $49.00. This is all the power I need.

Switched to synthetic oil + K&N air filter.
Will get SuperChiped this summer! And how many horsepowers will it give me if put a F150Online sticker on my truck?

I only have the V6 (bought my truck used) but its fun to say I boosted this, and that! I can't wait until I can say those things

so far 80.00$

Kenwood 4011 stereo, Rockford 150a1 amp, Profile electronic crossover, 2 10" IDQ DVC's, and USAcoustics 2150 amp(on the way).

FUTURE STEREO MODS:
Memphis components in front, Pioneer 3ways in rear, amp for the components, and a cd changer.

FUTURE PERFORMANCE MODS:
