    yes lots of questions because Im getting my wish list together for the wife to approve.

    Cold Air Intake... worth the money on the trucks or not? get one or just get a K&N drop in panel filter.

    Exhaust - get a system or just get an aftermarket muffler welded in? im not looking for a lot of added power per se, I just want to make a little bit of "balls" when i drive her.

    Thanks guys. im just getting back in to the truck scene. havent owned a truck in about 11 years.

    on my screw i had a couplin in the pipe right under the doors (in that area) , i took the couplin off and took the pipe/muffler off from there back so i had a straight pipe that stopped under the doors , it was a deep tone and sounded perfect ....... saved me about $300

    cold air not worththe money. and dont just take your muffler off. its super loud. dont buy a whole system. also not worth the money unless your building a race truck. weld in something with a good tone and getting rid of the stocker will open up some power. what year is your truck?
