Default Performabuilt Level 2 or 3, now that is the question....

Well i have the money for the Level 2 right now, but I started thinking if i save up a few more weeks then I will have enough for the Level 3.... I know alot of people run the Level 2 and have no issues.... I just don't want to ever have to worry about breaking it... My setup is going to grow over the next year, to Heads/slightly bigger cam/bigger exhaust/Fast Intake... And maybe a healthy shot of nitrous... Just wondering if you had the money is it worth the upgrade?

I have a lvl 2 in an ex cab! I only have about 375 to wheels right now! But I've never had a problem! If I could I'd do a lvl 3. Either way you'll be happy. Plus you'll have either a 1 or 2 year warranty.

I don't think you need the 3.. skeets and stews truck both helped me make my descision... And if worst comes to worst in 2 or 3 years and you finally tear it out you can pay extra on top of the 950 rebuild to upgrade the rest but I think you will be just fine. I love mine
