Cool Calling all Suburbans!

Hi fellow burbanites. When I decided to build a performance Suburban I did not seem to find any of my brother Suburban owners doing this. A few Tahoe's and Denali's and of course a ton of pkups. I would love to hear if I am one of the only ones to build a mean grocery getting machine or what? I thought it made for a perfect combo. Can haul the boat, the kids etc. and blow the doors off some youngens Stang!

Mine is a '04 Suburban 2500 w/ 6.0. Too many mods to list but had it on the dyno yesterday and the last pull had 471hp- can't remember the exact torque # but it was in the low 500's. My goal is to get it to 500hp. I have a few tricks left should get me there. I love to drive the thing. Haven't had it to the track yet but I think it will be pretty good. I would like to be in the 13's and I think that is pretty realistic.

So let me know fellow Burban owners what you got going. I am feeling lonely out here.

No nitrous. Modified Radix Blower, different fuel injection system, custom tune, ceramic headers, Gibson exhaust, custom ground cam etc.. blah..blah. unfortunatley about 10k worth and thats with lots of discounts because I am in the automotive industry and called in a few favors. Psst, don't tell the wife. My buddy has a Viper and keeps goading me to race him. I keep telling him it would not be fair. we have about the same ponies and I have 3000 extra lbs. I should tell him if he pulls his boat, I will race him! I keep telling him any time he wants to hook em up with a chain, I will pull him around the parking lot like a Tonka toy!
