Default Wife bought an 2002 Trailblazer I love it!

This thing is great. I was a little skeptical about the I6, but after driving this thing around it rocks. I am really impressed with the power. This a great mid-sized SUV. It is a 2WD, I hoping for high 15's at the track this year We will see.

my wife and I got one. to be honost i would rather drive it then my truck. just so much smoother and the power is there. i installed a cai on it and it seems to help some. i will be installing an exhaust system as well. probably just a magnaflow with a single pipe out the rear

does anyone know how well the new I-6 and I-5 are handling power adders? i would think that one of the new colorados with the five cylinder and a turbo would be pretty sweet.

there is a guy that got i think 500 hp out of the I6. i think that is what he got. anyway, i was reading at a fast pace about it at www.chevytruckworld.com. some people were talking about something he did. it wasn't a daily driver needless to say.

It is your thread, you can go if you want

The Trailblazer converter is a little looser than the silverado verters....I have heard that there is a slight gain in performance from them. I am sure someone will chime in that has done it.
