2006 Expedition 5.4 upgrades

[Fredbear]

I'm new to the forum, and trying to find out what I should buy for my truck as far as exhaust, tuner/chip, and intake. I would like to get increased MPG also. It's my wife's daily driver. Do they make a Sniper for the 06?

5.4 upgrades

I'd be interested in the same shopping list for my '03 2wd daily driver.
Have also seen your oil comments. I'm at 95,000 mi. and have always run the 5w20 blend per my manual. During cold weather cold starts this winter I had a clatter that I hadn't heard in previous years. If that's an oil problem would you recommend the mobil 1 5w30? Currently getting 12-13mpg.
Thanks

they have proven that the 20W film strength has more wear on parts than the 30w...... if you are worried about cold weather starts then the 0w30 would be a good choice but in houston 5w30 would be a good choice all year around. Full synthetic flows better at the same weight than dynosaur juice....
Come up to Bryan sometime and I can get you tuned up... you will love the difference on the 03 and 04 Expeditions...

I appreciate the counsel, I'm going to get the 5w30 this afternoon or tomorrow morning.
I'll take you up on the tune offer. I'll be in College Station quite a bit in a couple of months-I'll be running part of the interior construction on a new building at aTm. I'll contact you when I'm heading up.
Thanks,
Bill
