Default Best way to spend 200$?
I just got a little dogh for my birthday!

Whats the best way to spend about 200$? Should i save it for a lil' bit and buy something bigger...?

I really want dual stacks, and a good tuner, gauges too... A tuner w/ gauges is even better!

Any suggestions?

Save your money and get a good fuel system such as an Airdog or Fass

Amsoil synthetic oil change motor and the diffs. Other than that save up the cash and get the programmer.

do you have gauges? your current fuel pump may be okay.

you are quite close to having money for a used box or some injectors

i would suggest saving to bout $400 and getting an air dog raptor 100gph.... i talked to a specialist from thorough bred diesel and they told me that with any programer you will need a peformance lift pump on pickups like mine or yours bc they reprogram the amout of fuel you need and if your not getting enough ur vp 44 will go out quick costing you around $1500 or so (Have'nt priced one lately)... they sugested the air dog raptor.... then save up for your programer to be safe
