as far as tips go, I dont know if you can run a off road x pipe on 4.6 cars and different things like you have to get a tool to change timing. I guess what I want to know is all the performance things you can do that are not too expensive

best bang for the buck is gears, 3.73s or 4.10s. As far as timing goes, you can get a mechanical timing adjuster, but the more popular choice is a handheld tuner, that will also allow you to upload custom tunes, select gear ratio, tire size, fuel at WOT, read and clear trouble codes and a bunch of other neat stuff. Tuners come in handy as the mod list grows.

You can run an o/r H/X or one with cats, its up to you. One big PITA is longtube headers. They provide good power gains but are a time consuming, involved install process.

First thing I would do would be gears, and O/R mid-pipe, and maybe a shifter.
