Thanks, liking the rims more and more I see them in the truck. Wife drove the truck today and caught myself checking it out as it drove away.


It's missing that Procharger whine for sure though...

Been away at work for 3 weeks. Will be heading home soon and will get a little more done. There is a test and tune at the track on the 9th that I plan on attending and getting some baseline times. I also plan to have the bung installed for the wideband and get some tuning in before the T/T so I can see if I can pick up some gains with a tune and some work to the air intake.

Anyone have a link to where they modified the stock airbox? I know people were cutting them to allow some more air in and putting in a K&N filter and replacing the mid tube and seeing some pretty decent gains.


Other than that the big plans probably won't kick off till winter time. To much money tied up with other things at the moment to go crazy with this truck yet.

I cant speak for the stock airbox, but I modded my SLP airbox and it helped keep IATs a little more consistent. Cant say for sure how much it helped ET or MPH wise.

I will see if i can find the info, I just remember people cutting sections out of the stock airbox to allow for more airflow.
