I guess a lot depends on how you use your truck (racing, off roading, towing, or what), but I've liked my ARB locker. Locks when I tell it to, doesn't lock when I don't tell it to, I get an on-board air compressor with it. Cost a pretty penny to get, but I like it.

I had the GMC Performance exhaust and air intake right after getting my truck but I will always remeber the first drive and the rumble the exhaust now makes. Since then I just had my lift done with new rubber and I feel like I am 16 again, I am looking for any reason to drive. Hey honey are we outta bread, don't worry i will go get it

i dont do much but drive the truck and maybe a lil towing, but i just want to beef it up.
i just dont want to spend a lot on something that isnt worth it.
So the factory intake and exhaust has realy pleased you?

I always suggest this to folks:
Stage One- exhaust, intake, tune
Stage Two- headers, cam, efans(if you need em)
Stage Three- blower, tranny, gears

I do like it. The sound is great and the GMC chrome tips look really good to. Now I will not lie too you I did not see any real noticeable difference in power maybe a slight uptick in acceleration but the motor noticeably breathes better
