I think you will finding modding you truck in stages is a good way to go. Are there any mods on your truck right now? If not guages and a downpipe are a good starting point. Once you have the ground work done then you can start in on the real fun like injectors.

Tom has you headed in the right direction already... :D

After dp and gauges I would look at a chip, then something to fortify the tranny (make it stronger).

After that some injectors, turbo, fuel system, big oil. The list goes on :D

I just got my guages in the other day but havent installed them yet. to busy. I ordered boost, exhaust temp, and air/fuel ratio. Should there be any others i really need?
There is a K&N air filter but i would rather have the entire kit for it. Thats all there is that is performance
You wouldnt happen to have any links for a good downpipe would you?

I was really wanting to get stacks. what are your opinions on those. im debating on getting them eventually or not

If you have an auto you may want a transtemp gauge, stacks are loud dirty and hard to keep clean and I love mine:rockwoot:

You do not want that air/fuel ratio gauges that is a gas motor deal. I agree on a tranny guage. If a tymar intake interests you send me a PM we may be able to work a deal.

Well Im glad i was told wrong about what gauges to get but hey im about to order the trans temp. gauge right now since I do in fact have an auto.

With the stacks being loud well thats what im going for lol that and looks. Im really looking into gettin some eventually but i would rather get some performance stuff done first.

Hey Tom how much for that intake?
Is it new/used and it will fit mine right
