Default 2007 Avalanche

I got a 2007 Avalanche LTZ with a 6" lift. Im trying to get more power out of it, I'm not very mechanically inclined so I have been doing some research on what I can upgrade. I started this thread to get some ideas/suggestion on what I should and need to upgrade and in what order. My ultimate goal is to have it supercharged by early next year

With the lift do you got some beefy tires on there? If yes what size?
I'd highly suggest a gear change. Depending on tire size either 4.10 or 4.56 and you'd have to change front and rear axle gears to match.
Check out black bear performance for tunes. They're very good.
That should help get the ball rolling!

With 34" tires definitely do 4.56 gears.

I've had good luck with motive gear.
My current diff has richmond gears and they do sing a bit at high highway speeds

Trans is stock. Besides the lift the only other work done to it is beefed up electrical system. To support my sound system.
