Default Next Best Upgrades On A Budget

Hey guys Im new to this site but I have some questions about the next upgrades I should do to my truck. Its a daily driver but I want more power and better fuel economy even though they might not go together. I have been looking at new manifolds to replace stock or even a lift pump for the truck to keep up with the edge juice. Am i Headed in the right direction and if so any brand reccomendations or any other things I should look at? Thanks

I my self would go with gauges, then lift pump then other mods. So you can monitor everything, and also supply the fuel needed to support future mods,

The Edge Attitude comes with a lot of gauges but i dont think fuel pressure is one of them, so I can look into a gauge for that. What brand and size lift pump do you think would be a good choice? Stock the truck has 350 horse and then the Edge Juice adds 160 or 170 horse.
