You can try small with a screamin demon coil pack, new plugs and wires. Or go big with a tuner, they are pricey but may boost your truck a little bit and make it run more efficient. There is an underpulley for your truck too but really nothing I know of besides a turbo charger that will beef up the performance alot

 

i thought about a throtle body spacer since its only the less exp. side but wasnt sure

 

you can get a demon coil pack, CAI, Exhaust, chip, programmer, maybe replace the Cam. Its all up to you though. I cant tell you what to buy or what to put on your truck. Its all personal preferance I can just tell you what can help add some HP mind you it wont be much. you bought a ranger not a ferrari.

 

very true my last truck was a v8 f150 and i just miss the power and would like to gain a little power

 

there is nothing like a V8 5.0L

but yeah you can do the suggested and see what you like.

 

thanks

 

I was going to do the spacer a loong time ago, but I learned its junk and doesnt do a thing. I think the above recommendations are a good start along with good maintenance, Tune ups, Cleaning intakes and one of my favorites in simply going to a decent synthetic oil. Also I am a believer in using what is recommended for you truck such as motorcraft oil filters, wires etc

 

A cai (cold air intake) wont give you anything either. Exaust maybe a little. Underdrive pulleys a tiny bit Probably a full tune up will help the most. My .02

 

^^ It's good 2 cents Whiskey, I agree brother!

 

eletric fans also a good one for a few

 

^^^ Thats a good one, that would take some drag of your motor.

 

i have exhasut on it but i didnt see much of an increase personally

 

There are little thing you can do to it like mentioned above but you may not notice much of a power difference, but it may make for a healthier running truck.

I am going to move this thread to the 3.0 Tech category

 

The best performance mods I did..... (that I noticed) was the screaming demon coil pack and the jet performance tuner... The tuner was very expensive but by far helped the most....i also have a gibson cat back air box mod with k&n drop in, the only thing I noticed about these mods was a cool sound when I layed into it.

 

Oh and the bbk helped too....try cleaning your MAF sensor if it has never been cleaned it will free up some HP and some MPG's

 

I just reset my computer back to stock with the tuner just to see...and god damm...def the best performance mod I own

 

anything cheap that will get the most power?

 

......no
