Guys, Ive got a 1996 Xplorer 5.0L and Im lookin into making some upgrades and I want your opinions on whether or not I should get stuff... First off I want to get duals, but I will have to take out my spare tire and put it in the back no prob. My question is, are duals really worth it? I already have a single Flowmaster cat-back 3'' exhaust and it sounds good, but I kinda want duals tho. I also want to get the Ford Racing shorty headers but should I? Will it make it sound much louder and add more horsepower and torque? Ive got a MAC Cold Air Intake coming in the mail tomorrow and www.rpmoutlet.com claims it adds 14.2 rear wheel horsepower! That sounds like alot compared to the K&N FIPK which I guess is strange and I hope that its the real numbers and not an exaggeration. Anyhow Im also ordering a Diablochip, but wouldnt I need to get the chip custom programmed since I might get headers? Basically I just want advice as to if I should get duals and headers and if its worth the money. Im really interested in performance upgrades thats why Im lookin into this stuff so please give me your opinions guys!
