    KKM Performance Intake

    not really. it should take the shop about an hour to do. they'll just remove your old exhaust system at the catalytic converter and run new pipe to the new muffler then pipe back from the new muffler to the rear of the vehicle. sorry i don't have any pics but i have a link to what my exhaust...

    KKM Performance Intake

    well for dual tips most likely you'll have to remove the spare and put it in the cargo bay. or at least that's what happened to me. but i have dual stainless 3" tips on mine...looks and sounds great. cost me about 320

    KKM Performance Intake

    well in that case get a flowmaster 40 single in dual out exhaust or you could even get dual flowmaster 40's. that is a two chamber muffler with least amount of restriction. for the single in dual out muffler i think it's a 2.5" pipe coming into the muffler and dual 2.25" pipes coming out...

    KKM Performance Intake

    anywhere from 250-350 depending on local shops. make sure you get it welded together though. don't worry bout the intake in my opinion. my biggest gains came from cat back exhaust and the chip!

    What brand/size throttle body?

    don't even worry about the throttle body changing...take that 200 bucks and invest in a chip, that is where a good amount of your power will come from

    dumb newbie ques...but still reply

    pioneer makes speakers that are fit for the fords. the 5x7 pioneers will work great for ya! i have 2 sets of them in my X. i would suggest 3ways up front and the 250 watt 2ways for the rear. they're pretty cheap to and you can install them yourself in a little over an hour. good luck.

    Getting exhaust... V Flow vs Flowmaster vs Magnaflow vs ?

    i'm gonna drop in on this one....an aftermarket exhaust does yield better mpg and better power for towing. i just put almost 1300lbs of marble tile in my cargo area and drove it home 25 or so miles. the explorer handled it very well (i have the OHV V6) and even did well getting it up my 45...

    Is this normal?

    perhaps just pushing the pedal down 80-90% might yield better results...also it could depend on your the gear ratio in your differential. as far as the guage...you could have broken gauge, messed up thermostat or short in wire somewhere.
