Best way to get into the 14's
I have just recently purchased a regular cab 5.3 Silverado. What is the cheapest and most efficient way of getting my truck into the 11's? Also, it's still under warranty, so I don't want to void that. Thanks!

First of all, I saw your cardomain site and you have a badass truck. The HD hood and new grille looks sweet on a regular cab truck! Anyways, 11's is certainly possible but you will void your warranty. No way around it, LOL. I would start by swapping out those 3.23 gears with some 3.73's or 4.11's, get a 2800 stall, custom tune (Wait4Me, etc.), nitrous (100 shot), cam, full length headers (Pacsesetter's), no cats, beefier tranny (like 4L80E). After all this, I still don't think you will be 11's capable. There are plenty of people on this board who could help you out alot more than I can...people like parish8...

Whoa, I didn't see "14's" in the title, only saw "11's" in the post. Yeah, BIG difference. Your truck is probably capable of 14's right now...with good weather and traction.

I really don't want to mess with forced-induction or nitrous on this ride.. just want something that'll eat a mustang GT's and possibly a light modded LT1 camaro on the strip while still getting decent gas miealge and not voiding the warranty... I said 14's as a base, but of course I would love 13's if possible... but that would (from what I understand) require a cam and more serious mods.
How much do you think a good CAI, true duals with headers (have to keep cats for emissions) and a shift kit get me? Will that void warranty? Does anyone know somewhere I can look to see what mods do void the warranty? Thanks!
