my boss is selling his '04 2500HD gas guzzler 8.1 4x4.
he is getting a '05 crewcab z71. a few of his friends also have these z71's
on his HD he had a intake, hypercrapper, magnaflow.
he was asking me what he should do to the Z?
i told him let me order him some stuff and he could pay for it.
so here it is:

Nelson tune
K&N intake
magnaflow muffler -not sure which one yet-
maybe just maybe if he lets me, LT headers..
oh yea and some 285/75/16 buckshot mudders for deer season
and 285/75/16 mickey thompson MTX for everyday driving.

does that sound like a good set up?

 

A small stall like a tb stall would be a good choice too

 

sounds good, I like AEM's intake both K&N are probably just as good

How about UD pulleys while your at it

dont the 05's have efans from the factory?

 

Add a blower to your list. He'll like that a lot!!!

 

Just swipe a Radix on his credit card...

A cat-back, intake, and a good tune would get him off to a good start. I would use a custom tune, or IMO the Crane/VHP tuner is the best handheld.

 

ok fellas! i forgot to add. my boss aint a horsepower/torque, speed freak like some of us on here. i just wanted to get him set up with some good stuff. mostly to have it sound good and get better mileage, his '04 HD was getting bout 9mpg. so a stock z71 will do him fine. i decided to get my hands on it to help him out, and put some really good goodies! and wanted to run it by you guys first to see the responses.

 

oh and i also forgot. i will drive it some to go get his boat, run errands,... u guys see where im goin dont you. hahaha

 

All that sounds good I had a set of buckshot mudders and loved them they got me out of alot of stuff I shouldnt have been in to begin with. Get the 22" magnaflow it will have less interior resonance or if he wants it loud get the 18".
