Default looking for "minor" performance upgrades!

Just looking for "minor" performance upgrades to get a couple more horses! I've already put in a K&N cold air intake to free up a couple horse's (have pics in album) and I am about to replace the plugs and wires with a upgraded higher performance set. Also when the time comes I'm going to upgrade the exshuast system but not until the truck demands it! I've also looked into the reprogammed computer's and what not but don't really know much about it. Also have had a couple buddies tell me about performance chips and really have never experienced any of the upgrades. Any info on these upgrades and if any other upgrades people have done or have in mind would be awesome to hear about!

I wonder what you are driving? In any case, if you use the 'search' function or just read through the many, many discussions of this subject, I'm sure you will get some ideas.

If you would please put your vehicle info into your signature, we won't have to ask if you have any more maintenance questions later on.

Since I run 87 octane and have no desire to put it on the strip, I left the rev limit and shift points at stock. The best benefit from my programming needs is to firm up the shift points and correctly calibrate the tire height for speedo and mileage purposes.
