K my cuz has 1999 z71 4x4 5.3 sierra truck. It has a lift and the gears to match it(4.56) He has $1500 cash to spend on mods. Any suggestion ??? he is ready to buy now!

 

Headers and tune

 

what kind? what tune? and where?

 

LPP or Pacesetter headers and a tune from Blackbear, Wheatley, Nelson, etc... Also throw in a full exhaust and a used intake kit, and you're right at the budget.

 

Pacesetter LT & ORY ~$600
Custom tune ~$300
Used Intake ~$175
Full Dual exhaut ~$400

~$1475

Or

Pacesetter LT ~$600
Nitrous Wet Kit ~$600
Custom Tune ~$300

~$1500 but alot faster....ha

 

n2o + stock 4l60e + lifted truck =

 

Ok which is a good place to buy the longtube headers/ ory?. he wants to order them as soon as possible. For the custom tune how will he get it on the truck wit out a programmer? whats the best intake and where to buy?

 

the tune is just a quick swap of the ecm...just modify the stock air box to save money and speed engineering has the pacesetter's and ory for around 500$ Sponsor to the right ------->

 

Do something about the stock intake tube. That thing might as well be capped off its so small. You can hack up the box and the filter really isn't THAT bad but that dang tube is just tiny. I'm toying with the idea of one of those 50 dollar ebay cold/mostly hot air intake kits just because I'm too cheap to buy the 100 dollar intake tube kit from summit.

Tune, tune tune tune tune tune tune. That is going to be the next step on mine.

 

k headers and ory will be ordered from speed engineering. swamping the ecu what sponsor you recommend for that?...he already put some kind of cold air..so thats taken care of. tune tune tune what sponsor has the best?
