They aren't cheap, but they aren't hard to put on yourself. i can pick some up for uder 300, but they aren't going to be ceramic coated or whatever to last longer but im not going for longevity. They're awesome, That's like the biggest improvement you can do. Shorties don't really do that much so don't waste your money. Price is justified tho.

Yep its all still right here where you left it
I play beach volleyball at Flounder's all the time, I've never actually been to Hemmingway's (too expensive), my sister used to work at Surf Burger so I got free food all the time (FREAKIN AWESOME), and yes Bagel Heads does have the best coffee.

Damn now I'm hungry

Oh... last time I looked they were like $600 a set. Maybe they were ceramic coated but I can't remember. I'm hopin the programmer will dramatically change my truck. I only get 8.33 mpg... It sucks so bad, literally

Yeah...look at pacesetters. Don't get borla, unless you got money pourin out your butthole cause cheap LT's do just as good.
Borla's junk is too damn expensive for my taste.

Idk man I like my 4.6. My grandfather has an 05 F150 Lariat 4x4 and I can out pull him. Idk if its because mine is an FX4 or what but for being such a small V8 it has alot of muscle to it

pacesetters are around 300 but flow like any other. they rock. putting them on is a bigger pain in the a** than you think but justifies the extra 300 for labor! go to summit racing.

i like the tuner and LT's. they wake the truck up big time! i though have the 5.4 and not sure what they have for the 4.6. they dont match up.

I found a set of pacesetters for my truck on ebay for right at $300 after shipping and handling. I guess 30 HP is alot. $10 for every HP gain I guess isn't that bad. This would have to be something I do after my makeover. Gunna get too many things on my plate at once and I want to finish one thing at a time

understandable! dont overload yourself with stuff to do. the tq you get is worth it also. is the headers you found painted or ceramic coated. mine for 300 were painted. ceramic coated are more but well worth it.

Yours has pi heads so it would def beat mine. They didn't put pi heads on the 4six in the f series until 2001. Does your gramps's have a 5four or 4six and what kind of cab does it have.
