Default Finally got some upgrades!!

Well I've had my psd since April and I've been wanting to get more power but between bills and building a new airboat I've been short on cash. I finished the airboat about 4 months ago so i was able to put a little money aside (couldnt save too much, putting gas in the boat every weekend gets expensive).*
*Last week I put my Tymar intake on, my chip will be delivered tomorrow, my gauges will be delivered Friday, and new headlights, turn signals, and corner lights will be delivered sometime next week. I still have to do my exhaust, the guy I bought the truck made it straight pipe but he didnt change the down pipe. Exhaust will be done in 2 weeks hopefully.
*I think i got around $70 in the intake, and the difference is slightly noticeable.*
*I didn't get the chip I wanted, but there's a reason for it. I bought a TS with 6 tunes from trucktuners.com for $235 with free shipping. I want to go with DP or TW but I want to do injectors in a few months so I figured when I get them I'll have the TS reburned. Just the chip and one program alone is $200 from DP and that doesn't include the switch so this way it's a little cheaper in the end.
*I bought my gauges from Glow Shift. I was kinda worried about buying cheap gauges but I've been reading alot of reviews the last couple months from other psd owners that use them and I didn't read anything bad except they can't be wired to the dimmer switch. For $205 (after coupon code. Was $230) with free shipping I got a 3 pod pillar mount, pyrometer, boost, fuel pressure gauge with sending unit, and fitting for the sending unit. Hopefully buying cheap gauges doesn't bite me in the *** but we'll see.
*I ordered my lights off eBay and got everything for $136. I got crystal clear headlights and corner lights, and clear smoked turn signals. Tail lights and 3rd brake light are gonna be ordered next week.
*When I get my tax return I'm hoping to get rid of my 37" military tires and get some 20" rims and 37's. Those military's ride rough! Soon to come are injectors and intercooler, hopefully in the next 6 months or so. I'll try to post some pics of the lights and gauges when I get everything together. I can't wait to get it done. I haven't told my buddies yet, so I had to come on here to tell someone .
