Hello From IL
Hey guys and gals,
New to the forums (and Rangers). Just picked mine up about a month ago or so to get me to and from work. I work in Computer Security for the University of Illinois in Urbana/Champaign. I got an 03 4cyl 2.3L XL. Reg cab, 6' bed. Standard tranny. Nothing special, but hopefully I can make it all my own over a little bit of time. It's all stock right now, but I'm hoping to change that here. I am looking at replacing the Head Unit (waiting for it to show up in the mail - Pioneer DEH 3100UB). It's nothing crazy, but there is a great lack of radio stations around here so I wanted to use my iPod to listen to music. Also looking to replace the factory speakers (guy I bought it off kinda put them close to their deathbed anyways). Lookin at a K&N CAI to hopefully give her a little more oomph. Wanna convert it to power locks with keyless entry, too. Got some other ideas, mostly still pretty nebulous and undecided on.

Re: Hello From IL
Welcome to FRF Sam
If you're looking for a new intake, make sure it's a CAI and not a short ram, many make that mistake. The short ram will take its air in the engine bay, close to where the original intake is, whereas a real CAI will take it in much further down, away from the engine's warm air. If you plan to use your truck during winter, you might want to build one custom as a factory CAI will be placed so low that it'll be vulnerable to snow and ice.
