Custom CAI, mail order tune(Wait4Me = Great price), exhaust, TB Bypass. That is probably the best bang for you buck parts right there. Does the truck have a 5.3 or 4.8, posi-trac or peg-leg? A 5.3 thats posi-trac and those mods which are around $250 to $300 total should run mid to high 14's. You can't ask for a better deal IMO..

I spent $1600 on my extended cab and it went 14.57 with those mods only. I went with a AEM cold air intake, Magnaflow Cat-back, Hypertech HPPIII (save the bashing...it worked), and a Yank TT3000 converter. Those mods in a reg. cab should be about 3 tenths faster...or 14.2x's or so. I'm also at 85k on my stock trans. If you get a custom tune, I wouldn't take out too much TM, as I'm a firm believer in that's what's responsible for a TON of 4L60e deaths. Welcome.
Oh, I got a Crane Powermax tuner for sale if you're interested...pm me.

well, my brother has a brand new sts gt67 kit that he will sell you. That should take your friend down. He has 42lb injectors too, all you would need is a tune and maybe a fuel pump depending how much boost you would want! That might be more than you are wanting to go in right now though. Have fun modding!
Just kidding!!! All of the above mentioned sounds good!!! These guys on here know their 
!!!
