Default Here We Go

As i stated in another thread i am about to lift my truck blah blah blah. Well i went back today to order some fender flares and a sun visor and lo and behold,my tuner happened to come in so i had them go ahead and download the program for me so i could burn off the old tires...........get my every cent out of them,so to speak(hehe). What a difference that thing makes.......WOW. Needless to say i went back and ordered the magnaflow 5" turbo back exhaust and also the air induction system.this is close to 10 grand in 2 days but im curious to see just how much power you can actually coax out of these high compression monsters. Hell im already thinking of different intercoolers and modified turbos and different waste gates. Does it ever end? Haha. Like i said in my other post,i'll put up some b4 and after pics. I feel like a kid again and im gonna be 44.........crazy man.....just crazy.

Default so here it is

Firstly,thank you to drevil for posting the pics for me. Well thats pretty much it so far. I have to bring it back monday or tuesday to have the sun visor and fender flares put on it. I stopped at a muffler shop today to see if i could have them take the muffler off but they didnt have a piece of stainless tubing to do it,plus the guy told me it wouldnt make much of a difference anyway in the sound. There are some pics of the exhaust for you too hvacguy. I was quite surprised at the ride quality i must say. I expected it to ride much stiffer but to tell the truth there's not much of a difference from the factory ride,which i wanted anyway. I'm thinking of perhaps having some sort of design painted on it but i want to get a few references first and see some of their work.
