Default air intake,exhaust

Hello bombers! I am a newbie to the site, and to diesel mods. I have an 04 and im looking to wake it up a little, figure id start with intake and exhaust. Looking at a 5 inchturbo back exhaust system from diamond eye and a volant cold air intake. Before i spent the money i was hoping maybe you more experienced types could could give me some dos,donts, and look out fors.

Intake is just for the sound pretty much, untill u hit about 500whp IIRC. I have the 5" diamond eye exhaust with muffler, great tone and plenty loud.

Intakes add a couple of HP and help the MPGs. There are not "just for sound".
