Hey friends... First time here, figured I might as well register since I can't leave ANYTHING stock. Just picked up a "family car" 02 Z71 Tahoe day before yesterday, already put exhaust (flowcrapper and 5" dump). Only other thing it REALLY needs is an STS setup and a converter, well, that and a small lift and some at least 35's. See, can't leave anything stock!!! Glad to be here!

Tony

Thanks a lot guys! dewmanshu, you goon, that is awesome man! The mrs. won't let me run 13's in the "family car" until the kid is born, and we have a house... I just need to win the lotto or something, OR sell the TA. *wink* She LOVES the sound of a turbo, and the fact that we have no problem introducing tail lights to most cars, but picking on innocent ricers in a 3 ton 4wd would be HOT. Spool it up son, spool it up!

Sounds like we're in the same boat! Best put the muffler after the downpipe. With a bullet before my T70 out back, it sounds deep but you can hear the turbo big time... spooled up... sounds like a ground jet, hence the name "Bad SR71" which are my license plates. =) Time for an STS, 6" on 35's.
