I'm in the process of waking my f250 up.
This is what I have learned. It may help you.
The Down-Pipe is a major restrictor(robs power, and keeps EGT's higher): I put a 3" Downpipe on the truck. It helped. Not a fun job, but worth it.
I also put a tymar intake on it; that helped. (It looks cool too).
I am in the process of putting a 4" cat-back exhaust. already changed the muffler. that helped.
Put a sonnox shift kit in trans. (E4OD) That helped. (sonnox valve, and tricumulator springs).
Gauges are next, and then I am looking at a chip. (TW or DP).
1997 F250 7.3L
Tymar intake, 3" dp, sonnox valve and tricumulator springs.
Short list: 4" cat-back, gauges, chip.
