Not sure on the predator, but as above 25-30hp, exhaust gets expensive for less gains gears are an option but they dont add power, your best bet is the intake/tune to begin with

Intake and tune, but if you have enough get some 4.10 gears. This combo right here gives you so much gain and you can really notice it.

If you want to buy a package get it all from Brenspeed. However, you'll need to locate a local shop to do the install on the gears. You'll want to check around if not done correct they can be a real headache.

CAI and tuner. Best bang for buck. JLT II w/sct xcal2 with 3 octane tune settings. $555 shipped. They have great service also. Ship real fast.
