upgrades!
 
well my cooked 6speed allison is finally out and now i'm looking at what else i can upgrade easier with it out!anyone know of a -urethane trans mount
-exhaust downpipes(from manifolds to the rear both sides?) passenger exhaust manifold(how much difference will it make really?)
-transmission cooler (upgrade from stock cooler?)
-pass side big aluminum bar goes from frame to axle tube support and back to frame with some sort of pivot mount to the frame?mine looks crooked a little due to wear?
any info on these would be appreciated! or anything else i overlooked!(whats with the weird spacing i have no idea)

Mike Lovrich makes an upgraded trans cooler, a new trans bracket that has better ground clearance. There are several places that make Headers and up-pipes, like RDL.

The Headers and Up-pipes and downpipe will definately help free up some extra ponies, and lower your EGT's. If you are going with a Suncoast trans, ask about the Mike L. Trans cooler upgrade :upup:

never heard about the urethane trans mount :humm:
a transfer case brace, i do belive Mike L is involved with the lower profile transmission support.

if you dont have enough coin for both the manifolds and up pipes, the most gaine and reduction in egt you will see are from the up pipes.

i have a BD manifold on my truck, didnt notice anything by seat of the pants but i was too lazy to tap my manifold

anyone know of a good package deal on headers+up pipes+downpipe?a complete kit type of thing. thanks for the advice guys

should i just wait until i replace the turbo?(cheetah 70mm hopefully:U:) to do the up/downpipes?

to get full advantage out of a cheetah turbo you would need efi tuning and a drive pressure gauge

most turbo kits come with a down pipe

downpipe comes with the turbo ok thanks, but i cant find headers or up pipes???i tried searching the net and the price quote forum, no such thing as aftermarket up pipes i guess. changing the pass side manifold is all i can do!who makes a big bore passenger manifold other than bd?(i dont want a single bd product on my truck if i can help it)sorry bd reps/fans. wheres all the f'n cool parts for this lbz? turbo back and cat back exhausts is all i can find,what about BEFORE the turbo???

you will have to get in hold of rick D lance for some up pipes and headers.

TexasChristoper might be bringing them out too again :humm:
