So it bit me again..
 
not having my car to play with has been kinda nice and all but I surely thought I would have found another car by now, but nope, trying to move hasn't allowed that to happen sooooo I been thinking about putting a lil more umph into my Truck, not like Flaco Umph, but a lil more go, heres my shopping list so far:

Paces setter L/Ts with AIR and crap
Volant or K&N CAI
Magnaflow Catback
Diablo Predator tuner/programmer
and maybe a FAST 102..(if i feel like shelling out that kinda cash at the time)

my truck is just you run of the mill 05 Sierra..but it's a Crew Cab..(I like the space)

What kinda car were you shopping for?

Skip the Diablo Tuner. If anything, get it dynotuned after you're all said and done with it.

Get yourself intake and header-back exhaust and it completely changes the car. You'll love it all over again :)

Just an idea, I have an 05 with the pacesetter lts, y pipe, upd c/a kit, comps 220/220 cam and the truck put down 332 rwhp thru auto z71 4x4 w/342 gears. 5.3 btw. truck is a ton of fun to drive and sounds like a damn nascar when I wind it up:D And of coarse Patrick G tuned it, and it is trully a work of art

You'll do all that and a stalled truck of equal size, with a custom tune, will blow your doors off.

stall, offroad LTs/ypipe, and custom tune. If you have the money for a 102 LSX/R, swap the cam instead. The intake isnt the limiting factor on a 5.3.

not looking to haul ass or race anyone in it... and cam is not gonna happen since I forgot to mention I have a perfectly good 6.0 out of the a new Sierra at a friends shop in Austin waiting to go in when I finally move..(yes the nice 405hp 6.0 :D )
