I found a Volant Premium Cool Air System...
$277 10-15HP/15 lbs ft torque
also an Air Raid Air Intake.
$261 8-10/10 lbs ft
For exhaust it depends sometimes on what size bed/cab you have.
There are generally alot of options for exhaust, but for an extended cab/shortbed I found the best from Gibson...
Aluminized tends to be 120 or so less than Stainless Steel, and the couple examples I found had about 10-15hp/30 lbs torque increase...
Feel Free to look these up yourself.. Also I MAY be able to help get the stuff for cheaper, through a dealer I know, but I am in Germany, so it may be a pain to do so.
