what is something that i can do easily and kinda cheap to make my truck faster
 
The cheapest way is completely free and simple, drop any extra weight you can. For every 10 pounds dropped about 1 horsepower is gained. Then it's all about how much you want to spend. Fairly cheap low budget upgrades like high performance plugs/wires, cat-back exhaust, cold air intake and maybe a throttle body spacer are usually simple. Shop around for some good deals and you can get all that for around $500. I'm not sure about other motors but spending the extra few bucks for Royal Purple full synthetic in my 4.0 added a little extra kick as well. Good luck with the upgrades.

Weight affects HP ?
Wow, so If I did a chop top I'd gain about 30HP :buttkick:

There is not much you can do other than headers to get a lil more power and it wont be cheap. Power, reliability and cheap, you can only have 2 of 3.
 
i went to autozone and adapted the "rice burner" air intake stuff to my truck. noticable power increase. AS LONG AS ITS COLD. i am going to snorkle out above the hood. that cost about 100.00.
