Hi I drive most of time on road , so whack one is better for me? And thanks I'll buy the flashpaq and the Injen CAI, but what is the difference with cortex? I see cortex is more expensive, anyway thanks for the advice.

Get the EBC dimpled sport. I have them on my acura and love them with the green stuff pads. stops on a dime and super quiet.

The only difference is the Cortex comes with a limited Powertrain Warranty that seems like a waste of $$$ to me... I think the Bilstein would be better for onroad...
Here's the deal that you need to know though... Rancho are specifically spec'd for the Armada so they are covered under whatever mfg warranty... Bilstein are only spec'd for the Titan on paper so the mfg will NOT cover any defects, it's a buy as is situation... People say the HD series and 5100 series ride exactly the same on the Titan and Armada andhe 5100 series is a more durable built shock... You also need to search about the installation, a couple folks had a shop install them wrong and blew the shocks out after only a few months.. Blakspyda was the last one I remember that ended up being the shop messing up the install, so you can run a search on his posts with "shock warehouse" or "bilstein" as keywords..
Also, FWIW, I bought most of my suspension from PRG Products and although Greg is tough to reach, he has always offered me a satisfaction guarantee better than anyone else has offered to me.

You might also want to consider an exhaust upgrade. When I changed out the exhaust on my '07 a few months ago, it was already leaking around the muffler.
You should gain some performance with a nice aftermarket exhaust and it will be a nice addition to the CAI and performance tune.
