What are the most common things that you've done to your 3.0.

intake?

exhaust?

lets hear it.

 

i got K&N Intake, Flowmaster 40 series(i think) exhaust with dual Outlet.

 

Under drive pulley

 

replaced it!!!!! ha ha ha!

 

See below.

 

I haven't done much. K&N airfilter (direct O.E.M replacement), Cherry Bomb Glaspack Muffler. I did have an air ram system but I got rid of it. looking a possible engine swap and having this engine rebuilt to go in a 1923 T-Bucket. of course this is the 4th engine in my ranger this year too.




I also switched back from Royal Purple 10W30 to Ford Motorcraft 10W30 as well.

 

you totally n-word rigged that **** eh?

 

Under drive pullies and a tune are the most bang for your buck upgrades for the 3.0 there are.

 

^x2 and i have a catback exhaust and a k&n intake as well

 

Sig says it all.

 

Intake and Exhaust are a waste of money on a stock engine.

 

Magnaflow SI/DO exhaust and K&N Intake

 

a good set of gears as well.

 

what kind of tune, and prices of them?

to be honest i would probably do a k&n intake and a tune. maybe pullies but dont know much about them so idk.

 

I got the K&N CAI for now, I plan to come back in with a gibson muffler sooner or later

 

biggest noticeable gain would be 4:10 gears but be ready to do a lot of work and spend more money on gas.

 

K&N intake won't get you a damn bit of power.

 

well it gives you a small gain on a stock motor and its not a waste of money cause if you do decide to do something to the motor you have the mods to support it. duhhh

 

actually my truck has 4:10's in it and they came from the factory that way and my truck gets the same gas mileage regular rangers without the 4:10's get so i wouldn't necassarily say that your gas mileage will suffer

 

and why not?

 

disagree, the EPA standards are tested on a vehicle with each combination of motor and transmissions, the rear diff will make a difference on top of that, aswell as added weight. the EPA standards are also quite in accurate... i have recorded up to 23 mpg where as EPA says my truck should only get 17ish on the hiway...

4.10's will decrease your hiway mileage, but increase your city mileage

 

Because the stock intake isn't restrictive - the heads are.

 

LMAO, "Also includes free of charge: A step by step guide on how to avoid being flamed"

 

You've got that right!~

 

didn't mean to start anything uhh, faster than you...

but to be honest, i would think an aftermarket cone filter would be better than the stock filter that is 10 years old. weather or not it would be k&n or something different.
