What are some recommended bolt ons that aren't too expensive. I'm looking for a noticeable amount of HP gain. I don't currently have any extra money, but I should soon. For now I'm tryin' not to spend over $600. I'd like to start simple and work my way up. BTW, would anybody recommend a supercharger, and if so what brand/model/type?
One more quick question. What are some good mufflers that can make my truck loud?
Welcome to the site!
welcome...SC sure...I'd go with Radix..its a complete kit and easy to install..for under 600 bucks your best bet woould be a custome tune i highly recommend Black bear performance..he is a EFI Live instr. and IMO there is no one more knowledgable in this field and a great guy to deal with....as for exhaust i run corsa sport and love it but magna flow makes a nice set up as well...alsofor 600 you can pick up a set of pacesetters coated for under 500 ...
Maybe start with a limited slip differential like a Tru-Trac or Auburn so that when you do start making power you're not just spinning one wheel. Next I'd go with a 2800-3000 rpm stall converter so you can get the revs going to launch nice. Circle D is supposed to have a really nice recalibrated trailblazer converter that will work in your truck for some low prices. I hear rave reviews of their work from current customers on here.
ok man, youre on a budget, believe me, i know how you feel, if you want the biggest seat of your pants difference, get some 4.10:1 gears, later on you can get the true trac, or find a cheap G80 its the "locker" out of stock trucks for posi tract. you wont be making enough power to need a true trac right now, so get the gears, maybe some long tube headers and off road Y pipe, you can pick up painted ones for bout 420$ painted ones will look like **** after about 30 mins of run time, but you'll still get the performance so here ya go summit brand 4.10 gears 125$-150$, nelson tune 375$ headers 420$, gears and a tune is what i recommend first though bud thatll keep you around the 600$ range and you'll be happy with the results for a while until you come into some more money.:thumb:
Another question. I hear synthetic oil is good to use. Is this true? If so what brand is best???
i use castrol gtx, most guys on here use mobil 1 thats really all i can recommend from expieriance
I'm a believer in good old dinosaur oil myself, Castrol GTX
