Good thread for those of us that aren't drag racers. I hate to say the word but I have made some solid upgrades to my truck that I highly recommend.
The Ford AIS air intake system is a huge improvement in quality and filtration over the stock system that is known to fail.
The auxiliary transmission cooler allows me to use the truck as Ford intended. Even at stock power levels the stock trans fluid cooler is so small that the trans will overheat in normal conditions.
Neither of these added power but they were upgrades for reliability and dependability. I think it is too much to say that all changes from OEM are downgrades. I do understand your point though, that some mods are best left undone.
