Next mod ?

So far I have done 4" exhaust, 6637 intake with Petes cover, DP tuner, guages, 203 thermostat, coolant filter. What should my next mod be for more power. I plan on changing all my silicone intake boots and pressure test them to make sure there are no leaks before my next mod.

Nothing to do w/ power but what about a valve body in the trans assuming it's an auto. Sure will shift better.

I was actually going to post something similar.

I am more curious about mods for MPG though. Other than the intake/exhaust/DP Tuner I mean. Wasn't really sure what the "next step" is.

I am with Ron et al. Go for the cheap and easy mods next! You never mentioned doing the OBA, WW, CCV, In Tanks, HPX. I would CERTAINLY invest some money in a valve body if you have an auto. That is money very well spent.
You can do the cold a/c mod without the fancy kit by just putting a valve in the line going into the heater core. Semis have been doing it forever. That would be less than $20 worth of parts. How often do you go from heat to ac in one day anyhow??? The only down side to either kit is that it does not allow you to adjust the air temp coming out. We won't care, but our wives/women will!
Now I have to go search IDM mod...I forgot what that one was!
