Default Time for first real mod!

OK, the BB Tri Flo Exhaust is on, the K&N is in(just a drop in), and the tint and 20"s are on. It's an 03 5.3 z71 and I want to make some power. I am working on some long tubes and 3" high flow cats, so that's all set. I think a blower is on the back burner because I have 1K miles. Will I honestly feel a HPP3 and a yank 3000? Should I just do the 3200 and have no regrets?

You got the B&B, single or dualback?
What 20's did you get. Mine wiegh around 75lbs with tires <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />

I 've had my AZ headers for 3 years with no complaints, I wouldn't get 3" cats unless you got a good price, Gut your stocks. Very easy to do once you have your AZ headers on. The new flanges give you a clear view strait down the Cats. o2 simms for the rear.You shouldn't have a problem with emissions for New Hamp. If warranty is a concern you could the leave the cats for now.
If I had the money I would buy the new Magnacharger after I have my Tranny built.
Just My 2.

if you plan on doing any towing, get the 3000, but if you just want a fast truck, than im sure the 3200 would be better, i dont know how big the difference is between the two.

you will definately feel the 3000. also if you are planning on all these mods, get the LS1 edit and not the HPP3. it will definately help you when you do any kind of FI

I got the dual outlet B&B, very nice piece. I picked up the Mille Miglia Mesa 20" wheels on tire rack, they were 179.00 ea, smokin' deal. I am actually getting the headers and cats as an assembly with Y-pipes, really good deal from a friend in the business.
