It will be an excellent tool for your tuner to get your truck tuned spot on, as long as he is a competent tuner

Ahh. Well for right now I think Just the small stuff like mentioned earlier, so that it'll be out of the way for bigger mods in the future!

Sound ok?

If you're looking for instant gains for the dollar though, I'm still sticking with my Circle-D TB converter, or even a factory TB Converter suggestion, as these will yield the biggest gains for the dollar...I'd say 3 to 5 tenths off of your 1/4 mile time if the PCM is tuned properly

Well, i know I'm getting some new infinity door speakers from my girlfriend cause she doesn't understand all the performance stuff. I can't really race it right now, since my low income can't pay for parts that might break on me. If I COULD I'd be ordering a wet kit from Nitrous outlet for $270, buuuut i got shot down pretty quick on that one.

I'm thinking efans, tune, shiftkit/servos, and MAYBE the stall. I would get an UDP if they were a bit cheaper. How much would the stall hurt my mileage, because with this recent tank I'm only getting about 15 -16 babying it. I did fill up with 10% ethanol on accident though

Personally I'd do a Z06 cam swap and springs

How much would that set me back? I was thinking to do either a 214/220 or a 216/220 on a 112 eventually

I mild converter like that shouldn't hurt your mileage too much, maybe 1 or 2 mpg depending on how you drive it

Well this 16 MPG on this current tank isn't making me lean towards the verter, DAMN ethanol blends
