Default 5.9L upgrades

I am looking to do a little work to my motor. I have so far been told that these mods would be good to do. I dont want to break open the motor just yet. I am looking for "bolt on" upgrades

Headers -I live in GA and we do have emission what can i use and still pass
e-fan~moe's performance
52mm TB~Fastman
intake manifold
superchips~SC.com
4.56 gears~local 4x4 shop

Am i missing anything?

Don't forget a high flow catalytic converter. Most places can still pass with one of those. The headers should still let you pass emissions, I believe.

+1 for the HS 1.7 RRs.

manufacturers will generally list if their headers or cats are emission legal...

I say go for the long tubes. I just put mine on and I love them. There isn't much differnce in low rpm when your just cruising but, when you really get on it there is major differnce you can hear the differnce in the exhasut tone it kind of mellows out and gets real smooth.
