Get some gauges to monitor the vitals. Engine oil and coolant should be within 15F. Its super important. Search and if you have questions just ask.

First get a 4" or bigger exhaust then delete the egr and cat if you don't have emissions constraints. Then I have heard a lot of people like S&B or afe for intakes. I personally have seen several factory air creamers leak, the media is good but the seal is a **** poor design, I am always paranoid mine is sucking dust. Then it's tuner time, I like the sct livewire for the fact that they will tune and monitor the trans unlike the edge. but if you don't get a mountable tuner get gauges like thad said

Jacob,

Good advice but there is NO need for a cold air intake unless you are putting out 500+hp.

The stock intakes are actually an excellent design. YOu are the first person that I have had with negative feedback....but if you have seen it then I take your word.

Yea the three trucks we bought at work all the where leaking be on the left side closest to the engine, you just gave to pay attention when you latch them, I wish they had a latch on the left side

Leave the stock intake setup and do the zoodad mod.

Zoodad mod, AFE intake, Magnaflow makes a great 4" exhaust with a muffler that doesnt sound too much off a straight pipe but it kills the drone at cruising speeds. Performance Machine and MFG EGR delete, 6.4 banjo's, and a blue FPR spring. PM me if you need any help with any of it.

SCT Tuner with custom tunes, I have a few custom tuners that ill use here at my shop. DO NOT use canned tunes, most factory tuners like SCT, Edge and the like do not tune the trans and after a while it will cause a problem.
