Default Mods for my truck

Well, the truck is bone stock... but still has the 3 year / 36,000mi warranty on it, and is a great truck to hold it's value. So I was wondering if there are mods that I can do to gain some horsepower that people won't instantly turn away from if I eever try and sell it.

I think dealers install radix superchargers as a upgrade on our trucks, Id talk to a dealer about that, to make sure it doesnt void the warranty. I have seen post were they refuse to work on blown trucks, and then again Iv seen them replace trannys for people under warranty with radix.

Where a "normal"(we arent normal by any chance!) person wouldnt be discouraged or afraid of. Headers/full exhaust,CAI(will help a little but is basiclly a complimentry mod),and custom tune. Thats about it if you were planning on selling in the near future.

True story.

Tracy Pontiac / GMC does them all day long.

A bit on the more expensive side than buying, installing and then doing tune and I dont think it will be as aggressive but it will be warrantied.

Call a dealer near you and inquire. If they do not do they will know some place that does. I have 3 dealers in my area and only one does it.

volant air intake, headers, and louder exhaust are 3 things every truck should have stock lol...

cam and bigger mods are iffy and depend on what people lole.. but a good intake and exhaust are items most want
