Hey, i'm new to the forum and was wondering if you could tell me what would be the best mods for exhaust/transmission. I'm interested in the dyna long tube headers with either B&B tri flow or corsa cat back system exhaust. I'm also thinking about a shift kit for my transmission. I think the shift kit would be better than the tune for the trans. After I install my headers/exhaust/shift kit I will then be getting a custom tune. I'm located in the Dallas, TX area and I have heard alot of good things about nelson tune. My current mods are the vara ram air intake system. Everything else is stock. I know these trucks have a potential. I would eventually like to install a cam/heads but for now I will start with the flow/trans. I would appreciate any advice that you may have to offer................................Thanks DBRASCO

If you have the $$ the Dynatechs are a awesome set-up, if you'd rather spen a 1/3 of that get you some coated PaceSetters. I've got them and they are great! As far as trans mods go ahead and get the TransGo HD2 shift kit and corvette servo. I did that and had a kevlar band, hardened seperator plate, and aluminum accumulator.(and the damn thing still blew up ) Once you've got that consider a torque converter next.

For the rest of your engine mods an intake and cam would be most beneficial with a custom tune. After all that post up again with the rest of your budget.

I know some of the sponsors carry them and they are also on E-bay for cheap every so often too. As far as cat-back it's up to you for which sounds best to you. Personnally I think for cat-back setups Magnaflow and Corsa are nice. But I would just get a muffler like a Hooker Aerochamber or Magnaflow welded in place of the stock one, alot cheaper that way.
