Default 5.4L upgrades?

I'm a 5.0L guy and i really don't know jack about any of the modular engines and i came over to your forum to learn a few things

my dad has a 98 expedition 5.4L 4WD with 115,000 miles
I was just wondering if theres anything worth doing to it to up the power a little. It is bone stock now (paper filter, stock exhaust) but it'll be paid off soon and he wants more.

I was thinking of a K&N and exhaust to start. What kinda exhaust setup would be good? Just a catback? He'd like one that has dual tips if there is such thing.

Is there an ar silencer to remove in these trucks like there is in Mustangs?

It's probably out of the question, but what all is involved in installing a lightning blower on this thing? Are the heads different on the lightning than the expedition motors?
Does anyone make a centrifugal blower for it? If so, would it be easier to do that than the lightning blower?

Thanks for any help
