ford -

I would redo the total exhaust, get a 1" intake spacer to go between the upper and lower intake, and get a chip. Those, along with either modifying the stock airbox - or some type of open air filter like K&N or Mac.

The chip will make a big difference, but between opening the exhaust and intake, you will feel a little extra help... :X22

Now - if you really want to walk the dog........
