If i put my mind to it i can get it done. i saw texas speed and performance has good cams as me and another member were talking about it. what is ory? What is TBSS? I appreciate the help so much! One exhaust shop said they can do a cat back parts and labor for 450$ but thats not even headers. Idk if i can find anyone to put them on in ca : (
TBSS= TrailblazerSS
ORY= Off road Y-pipe which is the pipe that will connect your headers (LT's) to your exhaust.

I use HP Tuners. It's an amazing program but if you have no tuning experience and no one around to walk you through it and help you tune it can cause some serious problems if you don't know what you are doing.

My friend in CO says diesel is the way to go he can do 13s with 4-5k with of mods. But diesel trannys are bank and i dont like the way cumins looks completely. Mines not a diesel but its a 6.0.

Everything about a diesel is expensive. I respect what people can get them to do but not for me..
well not yet, maybe down the road I will look into them.
Not sure what it does in the 1/4 now since all the changes, haven't gotten it to a track yet. Hope First part of September I will get it out. Guessing low 12's maybe high 11's. Still need to drill down the tune once at the track. She is a little rich at WOT and the spark tables have room to grow

Who would i call to find out lol i will call audio shop. Well if that is the case i wanna use these 4x6s in the grill. I saw this guy one time and his dodge ram had speakers behind his grill that worked with a flip of a switch. Does anyone know anything about that?
Is my truck a lot heavier than your guys? i bought it with new pro comp shocks installed on it i wonder if they are any good compared to bilsteins.
