Default just bought my first powerstroke!

ive driven my old mans truck for work, 2002 powerstroke f350, and since then ive always wanted my own. one came up. the bodystyle i love. its a 95 f350 single cab powerstroke. LOVE IT! it needs some work here or there. has a jasper tranny in it. its going to need tires, exhaust, and a chip. im pretty set on a ts perfomance chip if i can find one cheap enough, money is always tight. ii need imput on tires (for a 16 inch rim i want a 33 inch tall tire) and for the exhuast i want LOUD!. any responses are welcomed! thanks!!

Intake, exhaust, gauges...Then chip... You need to be able to keep an eye on temps before messing with chips.

For exhaust, hit up the site sponsors for a 3" downpipe to 4" straight pipe. Should be able to get a cheap kit.

ya muffler delete always increases sound, toyo open country 33s is what i have on my rig, i have a 94.5 stroker singlecab longbed and i also love the body style. But first things first GET A PYRO! i see alot of people (almost all of my buddies) chip their truck and a bunch of other mods w/out a pyro, u can only play the guessing game so long until it ruins yr motor, trust me i thought that i didnt need one and bamb my old 12v has been sittin in the barn for 4 years now. Any questions about the old 1st gen PSDs just ask id love to give my .02.
