2003 chevy truck A co-worker has a 03 chevy truck and he is looking to do some mods to it. It is all stock with a K&N filter...
I tried to convince him twin turbos would give him all the power he needs but I don;t think he is going for it... LOL

tell him to do some research! i'm assuming it is a V8...if its a V6...get rid of it. K&N FIPK, Wheatley Tune (make sure to leave most of the TQ Management in cause of the 60E), Full Exhaust including headers, Cam, Heads.....same mods you would do on our cars in all honesty.

Ebay "K&N" Intake (about $80 new, better than K&N), magnaflow cat back (or corsa), Sam88Gta1 tune, 3.73's and a trutrac or eaton posi.
But like others said, get some info on it, Reg cab/Ext cab? engine? 2wd/4wd? etc and what does he want out of the truck?
Tell him not to waste his money on a "handheld tuner".
