if you look up 6637 and 10K you'll come up w/ the two easiest mods.

Clean the fuel bowl and screen(standpipe is reverse threaded). Check fuel pressure and shim FPR if needed.

And as soon as you can, change the down pipe and get gauges.

get rid of the muffler, cat, and that stock downpipe, 6637, 10k mod (or 18k, or 22k... whatever), gauges, then you'll be hooked like the rest of us

they are both technically right some companies sell them with and some without. you can get the lid from a junkyard or ford. and just stick with what ever brand you use.

X3 on the 10k, FPR shim and 6637. The cat and muffler delete can be pretty cheap if you can get some pipe cheap and have/can borrow a welder. The downpipe should come fairly soon.
