Performance mods already on truck?

Bought this truck a week ago and haven't really been able to spend any time with it until this weekend. After exploring the underside I found that a Magnaflo muffler has already been installed on it. Where would someone look for a programmer on the truck? Just wondering if someone maybe already did it for me.

the programmer doesn't actually attach as hardware it's just a hand held computer that you plug in to the OBDII port, download your stock tune to the tuner and then upload the aftermarket tune to the truck's software.

looks like this

Does it have an aftermarket cai also? If it's just a muffler, then odds are the previous owner didn't do a tune.

thanks guys

I've been looking at MagnaFlow part number 12388. It's a stainless steel flow-through design, about 3 inches shorter than the factory muffler, and has the right inlet and outlet sizes and configurations. It's not a bolt-on - there will be some easy welding to do. I don't see the need to spend upwards of $800 to replace exhaust pipes that are perfectly fine when all you want is a muffler. You can get it at a number of sources for about $100.
