@KJ,
What about exhaust and intake? Worthwhile difference or no? I'm not sure about the bolt pattern but I'll look into it. I do have a brake controller but I'm not sure who the manufacturer is. I'll look into that as well.
Most intake and exhaust performance systems don't really do a whole lot. Maybe you can increase performance in the upper RPM range a little, but how often will you run the engine that high while towing? I just don't see enough advantage to justify the cost of those systems.
If your brake controller is a cheap timer based system I'd suggest you swap it out for a Prodigy P2. This unit has an accelerometer so it applies the trailer brakes proportionally to your rate of deceleration. Like I said, I used mine for 11 years of very comfortable towing. Also, the controller will alert you if there are problems with your trailer brakes.
