Adding a fuel plate, boost elbow, 3gsk, and tuning the AFC will wake your truck up and push the stock trans to the limit (past the limit if you get too agressive with the fuel plate).

Get a boost gauge as well as a transmission temp gauge. Autometers and Isspros are really popular and they are top notch. As for a muffler just get a 4 or 5 inch turbo back, with the muffler in the kit they sound good, and if you really want to be loud and sound good then get a muffler delete pipe

X2, wind it up to 4k when you get the supporting mods to do it, it sounds amazing
